Shoppers Drug Mart/Pharmaprix - Tell A Friend Event - Aug 10-12 - Official SC groups
It's referral time again! This will be the... fourth? fifth? time I've administered SC's SDM referral groups on SC, so if you have any doubts about my motives or whether this works, just search the forum for past events :). If you have any questions about the event. Start by reading the last event's FAQ here: http://www.cookiecrumbs.ca/sdm/
The FAQ has been updated!
If you've participated in one of these events before, you know how this works. The main changes this time are that you must spend 25$ (not 30$) on eligible items. Also this time are implementing a policy that if you do not shop on one of the days of this event AND YOU DO NOT TELL US, you will be excluded from the next event. Communication is key.
It's not much to ask that we be informed. We understand that sometimes the unexpected happens, but it's not too much to expect a little bit of communication about it afterwards, ok? Hopefully this will speed up point distribution.
This is the official SC thread. As a matter of policy, any further threads created about this event will be closed/deleted Thank you.
This event seems to be just like the last referral event, only this time it take place from MONDAY, August 10 to WEDNESDAY, August 12. That means if you want to join a group make sure you can shop on one of those days.
If you want to join one of our groups, DO NOT sign up for the event on your own!
What are we talking about?
Good question. An event like this is for shoppers who collect Shoppers Drug Mart or Pharmaprix (same company) Optimum points. By joining one of our groups, you can earn 9545 optimum points if everyone in your group spends $25 in the store (on eligible items) on August 10-12 (One single transaction on any of those days). 10,000 points are worth $10 if you redeem at the highest redemption level.
Basically, the way a referral event like this works is that we will create groups of 10 members + 1 group leader. After SDM awards points on June 2, group leaders will distribute the group points they receive evenly amongst all group members WHO SHOP.
If everyone shops and spends $25 before tax AND AFTER COUPONS OR REDEMPTIONS on eligible items, you will get up to 9,545 points from participating in these groups--5000 from SDM for shopping, and up to 4545 transferred to you by the group leader. You may gain additional points from additional referrals you make yourself, outside the group, unless you are a group leader. However, the 4,545 referral points you would get from the group are NOT guaranteed. That being said, we expect everyone that signed up to shop. This only works if everyone plays nice.
What if I'm not a smartcanucks member?
These are SmartCanucks groups, so we ask anyone who wishes to participate to please register with smart canucks.
It only takes a moment to do so. And you may find there are plenty of other advantages to being a member as well.
If you want to join one of our SDM groups:
Signups are now closed. Happy shopping everyone!

If you missed it and still want to sign up you can either ask a friend on the board to refer you themselves or sign yourself up on the SDM site:
http://www.shoppersdrugmart.ca/tellafriend
SDM will give you 5000 points for shopping but you will not be in one of our groups.
If for any reason you do not manage to shop, or have someone else shop for you, using your card, during this event, you must inform us or be banned from the next event! This process is quick and painless when everyone shops, or tells us if they didn't! Everyone will thank you if you just communicate!
Our FAQ and Tutorial will be updated and the links posted shortly. Thanks everyone.
This thread will be updated continuously.
