We are going on a 150 dollar free shopping spree at our local drug store  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860) 5 years ago

I finally reached the level need to be able to go to the Shoppers Drug Mart and get $150 worth of free stuff. I am so excited. You get point on everything except prescriptions, stamps and bus tickets. Sometimes they have a 20X the points weekend. They did two weekends ago and I went and stocked up on some stuff I needed. It was enough to give me the free stuff. I am going to have so much fun. Does your drugstore offer anything like this?

Wow that sounds great, I've never heard of anything like that in our area. I too would have a riot with an extra $150, our drug store has a ton of things I would love but can't afford.

Well I do hope you really enjoy it
No ours does not do anything like that, I do not think there is anything here at all that does this sort of thing. I wish sometimes there was as it would help a lot of People. Well done Linda and enjoy your shopping

Wow, this is great, congratulations, Linda! I haven't even checked on deals like that around here. But now I think you've made us all think.


myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

We had lots of fun too.

Yee Haw! Isn't it wonderful? I sho[ there all the time! I liked it better when it was less points and &75 dollars free, because then you could grab it every couple of months.

With their recent buy life brand deals and their 20 times the points days, they can add up so fast! I got 15,000 bonus points for the life brand deal in February.. that rocks! Last time I was there, it was a 20 times the points day and I didn't even know, lol. So that was a great bonus, because I had also gotten bonus point coupons in the mail. Over 12,000 points in one shop.

I really like their program, it's one of the few I still enjoy using. I used to collect Club Z.. now called hbc rewards, but this year, they cancelled the gold program to try and bully people into getting one of their credit cards, so now I only get half the points I used to get, and it ticks me off!

I used to use my AirMiles for free groceries and movie passes, but I never seem to shop at the right places anymore.

myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

It sucked when you couldn't get points on your prescriptions anymore. We would hit the 75 dollars practically every month. Oh, well. Do the shoppers you go to have the machine you can put your card into and it will print out a receipt that you can get some points from.


myLot reputation of 87/100. Vacant (2302)  5 years ago

Machine? What is it? Like the bank machine? They just scan my card when I shop. You have intrigued me though.. what is the machine for?


myLot reputation of 87/100. Vacant (2302)  5 years ago

Our prescriptions only cost a dollar a piece, so I didn't miss that too much, at most I only ever pick up maybe three or four at a time.


myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

No my prescriptions for myself and my husband come to around to over 800 dollars. They look like bank machines and you put your optimum card in there and it gives you alittle coupon. I don't think they are in all shoppers.


hkgirl (45)  5 years ago

i think they are refering to the atm machine. Some have an ATM machine and when u use it u get 150 points. and then u can get a little printout for bonus points if u buy certain products but its only good for that day.

The nearest equivalent I can think of in the UK is the Boots Advantage card. You get points on most things except prescriptions and some medicines etc. Is the drugstore a large shop which sells a lot of things?

What kind of things could you buy to treat yourself there?


myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

We kinda of treated ourselves last night. We bought stuff like we should: diapers, dergetent, stain remover, milk,soap, shaving creme, birthdaycards, razor and razor blades for my husband. The rest was for us. Foundation, makeup brushes, perfume, eyeshadow, nailpolish and other stuff. So we went on both the practical and some stuff to make us feel good.


myLot reputation of 94/100. organiclady35 (6026)  5 years ago

Sounds like you got your money's worth then?


myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

yeah we sure did. It felt good to take out the babys new washsoap and knew it cost me nothing.

Wow, that's amazing. Congrats! Is this drugmart a chain or just a locally owned store? I just moved to a new city and want to look for one if it is a chain.


myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

It is a chain. It is all across Canada for sure.

Yay for you!

We have a Shoppers Optimum card too, but since we have a no spending money policy until we get out of debt, we haven't really acquired very many points.

Let us know what you get and how the $150 thing goes. It used to be that you could get a certain percentage off, and now it seems to all be 100% off. I'm just wonderirng if it's at all difficult to use.


myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

No it is not difficult to use. It is 100% of your purchase but you have to pay the tax. My purchase last night casme to 190 dollars and I paided 40.

Hi
Wow that looks like fun.

Wish they would though.
I'd be right there.

myLot reputation of 95/100. linda345 (1860)  5 years ago

Its gives them a edge over other drugstores I think. I sometimes go to another one where you can collect airmiles.


hkgirl (45)  5 years ago

yeah because shoppers is like the most expensive drug store pretty much. I only shop ther a lot cause i work there and get a discount, so now i am really raking in the points. but some customers say they dont mind paying more because they get the points and they find the points really add up fast.
