FreshPoints have ended their reward program for scanning barcodes effective immediately. It does not look like you can cash in any existing points for a redemption and no word on whatever redemptions may have been ordered.
For the past year, we’ve worked together to build the FreshPoints program you’ve come to enjoy so much. Last month, we made the difficult decision to adjust the points structure in an attempt to make the program more sustainable, although it ultimately left many of you unhappy.
After listening to your feedback, we feel that it’s better to invest our time and resources into improving the program instead of offering you a watered-down version of what we believe we can achieve. As of today, we are putting FreshPoints on hold and will be focusing our efforts on how to improve the FreshPoints program for us as a business and for you as our valued community.
This decision has not been easy for us and we are so sorry that it has come to this. It’s been one heck of a ride so far and if we are able to come to a better solution, you will be the very first to know.
We’d like to thank you for your continued love & support throughout this journey, and express our sincere gratitude for your understanding during our growing pains. As always, we’re ready to answer any questions or concerns you might have.

We often get asked on the forums how users can increase their klout score to be eligible for Canadian perks when they come up. Your eligibility for perks is based on a number of factors, some you can change (klout score, topics etc) and some you can’t (like demographics). So you won’t be able to get every single perk no matter how high your klout score. These are just the very basics for beginners. There is a forum thread here with lots more tips.
Get Connected
Klout measures your influence on social networks, if it can’t see what you are doing, it can’t reward you with a higher klout score. Connect your social media accounts – but be aware of what access you are giving them, I have noticed recently that even some of my facebook posts in private groups show as increasing my score. While that is not publicly shown on my klout page, it does mean klout has access.
Be Friendly
Every time a friend likes, shares, retweets your posts, it helps your score. Every time they tag you in a picture or mention you, it helps your score. It can be as simple as tagging someone with @John Smith when replying on facebook rather than just John. Try to post only stuff that people will like – 100 likes or retweets of 10 posts will help your score much more than 100 likes over 100 posts, but don’t spam people for retweets etc, it has methods in place to recognize these. This has the biggest impact on your score. All interactions will help, but when someone with a higher Klout score mentions you, it helps more.
Add The Right Topics
Choose your topics wisely, think what companies will be looking for when offering a perk. If it is a food item, Food & Drink or Cooking may be good items to have. If you are just starting out, cover your bases with Food, Drink, Health, Family, Lifestyle, Skin Care, Klout, Beauty, and others that suit your interested. You can add these on your main page (click Profile – Topics – Add a Topic).
Increase Your Topic Influence
People can give you +K in topics by clicking on your profile. This helps increase your overall score, but also shows the companies offering perks that you are actually interested in those topics so makes you more likely to receive perks requiring them. You can share on social networks when you give +K and when you have received it, these mentions help your overall score too. You only get 5 +K per day, and you need to wait until people have given you +K back to give more (up to a maximum of 10 +K at a time.

Loblaws have introduced a new points based loyalty program called PC Plus to roll out PC Points to those who do not have PC Financial banking cards. You can join by downloading their app or getting a card in a participating store but not all participating stores can scan the mobile app yet, so it is a good idea to get a PC Plus card and link it to your app. If you have a PC Financial card, you can link that directly to your new PC Plus account and use that as your loyalty card.
Currently, PC Plus is not available in all stores. You can join and use PC PLus in most Loblaws or Loblaws Great Foods stores. You cannot use the card in their banner stores (RCSS, No Frills, Fortinos, Zehrs etc) and they do not state any timeline for when this may roll out, or if it will even roll out to other stores. Check if your local store is participating here.
Similar to the Sobeys e-offers, you need to load the offers to your card, they are not all automatic. PC Plus offers are tailored to your purchasing habits, so users will not get the same offers weekly.
1000 points is worth $1 and you can redeem once you reach $20 (20,000 points) or more in increments of $10. If more than one person in your household shops, you can combine your accounts to make the most of your points.

Will you be joining PC Plus? Do you have a Loblaws store nearby or will you shop at different store to participate?
