Shoppers Drug Bonus Before or After Coupns

[Pepse]

I know people keep asking but it is really after all coupons are redemed and some are just lucky to get them?

What are the codes that would make this happen?

Great question! I get confused over this too b/c so many conficting reports...some get points with no prob. My SDM says its spend $XX AFTER coupons!
Wish we could clarify this for all!

when its an event where you get bonus points (eg 15000 points wub $75) then yes, it is before coupons, because the computer calculates the total, and then coupons are counted as cash or tender.

When it is a promo like get a $20 gas card wub $75, it is usually after coupons. Most cashiers won't give it to you unless you spend the required amount after coupons are redeemed and they see the total ring up.

As for FPCs, they're in a different catagory than regular coupons. The code the cashier enters is 2002, which means you don't have to pay any tax on that dollar amount, but you also don't get any optimum points. So if you're using FPCs like in my first example above, you would have to spend $75 before coupons, but after FPCs in order to get the 15,000.
