It has now been confirmed that starting tomorrow, the terms have been changed for the Shoppers Drug Mart promotion for 8000 bonus optimum points when you buy four selected Kraft products.
Points will now be awarded on September 28th and only one offer per card is allowed starting tomorrow.
Thanks SavenRaven for the photo and confirmation!
I guess that’s what happens when people go to the extreme 🙁 I wish I couled even FIND 4 bars around here
Thanks for the heads up. Guess I have to go to SDM tonight!
Thanks for posting this! I am 4 chocolate bars away from the $170 reward. Guess I’ll try to do that tonight!
Harbie, my local (to work) SDM manager grabbed me last night to say they just got some in if I wanted some, I was so grateful
Hopefully I will be able to get 4 bars now!
Hopefully! If I see any locally I will let you know
I too am after just 4 chcolate bars. Hope I can find them. Good luck hunting 🙂
I passed 3 Shoppers on the way home tonight. The two that had the bars in stock had the sale tags taken down (and the cashier told me that the deal was over now) and the third had the sale tags up but only 1 bar.
I suppose I can get the last bit of points I need later (I only need 2700 more points) but it’s annoying that each store was doing something different.
If you cant find them be sure to get a raincheck…that way you can still get points after the sale next week
Yes, the signs are down and the sale price looks gone too on the shelf. However until tonight the 2 for $4 has been going through at our local stores & the 8,000 bonus points per 4 bars is still instantly added to your optimum points card (with no limits on how many as long as groups of 4). It is still working until tomorrow (I suppose just after midnight?). Noticing that the stores are putting some out and when they are bought, putting more out. Maybe an attempt to stop one person from buying hundreds? Not sure???
I went to 3 different shoppers today,and hit paydirt on the last one.The notice was posted and the sale price tags taken away,for a new price of 2.99,starting tomorrow.I still only paid 1.99 a bar,and the limit was 4.The clerk told me that people were getting baskets of the bars,and other customers complained,because they couldn’t get in on the deal.He said he had to put back baskets of bars,when the customers couldn’t buy more than 4.I scored 24.00 pts over the course of the deal,which is fine by me,I like deals,but don’t like to go to extremes….
I snooze, I lose.
I guess all the greedy people ruined it for the rest of us…shameful!
I too will be happy if I could get my hands on FOUR!
I went to two different shoppers yesterday (in the same mall) and one still had no limit and 8000 points for every 4 bars while the other had all the signs taken down and the teller said they had already updated the computer system to given only 8000 points max. Interestingly the notification from head office about the change in policy starting today (Friday) was not followed by all Shoppers.
I believe it is effective today, Sept. 14.
I heard SDM is changing their slogan from ‘Free Feels Good’ to ‘Free Feels Like We Got Taken Advantage Of’
I bought 12 on Thursday morning before I heard of the change. When I noticed that I did not get the points I asked the supervisor if I could return them and was told she couldn’t return food!
My store had no posting of the change of allowed bonus points… Nor did the staff really know eiher! I shopped buying 4 each of the 8,000 promo – 4 bars, 4 gums, 4 crackers and 4 cookies, when i didn’t see the 32,000 bonus points added I asked the store supervisor, she said they would be added by the end of the week (that was last week!) Worried about the large points, I then called optimum, they said they would be added by the 28th. No where in any of my communications did anyone tell me that I would only receive 8,000 points! I purchased what I did, believing I would get 32k!! POOP and SHAME on SDM!
