There is no Optimum promotion at Shoppers Drug Mart this weekend, so if you were holding off buying something in hopes of a 20x promotion, you may want to shop tomorrow using the coupon for 18,5000 points when you spend $75.

You can however get some free points next week!  Update your profile at shoppersdrugmart.ca/update using promo code 0114 (the box is right at the top of the page) and get 2000 bonus Optimum points.  This promo code will not work until Saturday and points for these offers are usually added on the 15th of the month following the offer but they will send you a confirmation email with the date.  The promo code should work until next Friday when the flyer offers expire.

Last time there was no major promotion, most people received a 20x offer by email on Friday in their personalized offers, so make sure you check them before shopping.

Thanks to The__Rock and Tioma for this information.

We introduced you to Influenster last year and gave a sneak peek of some upcoming VoxBoxes they would have available to Canadians.  I just got an email confirming my acceptance into the next VoxBox (one I am very excited about as it contains nail polish!).

Influester promised two campaigns for Canadians in early 2014:

The first is from a brand we all love… and they’re packing the box with 3 items that will make you polished from head to toe!

The 2nd is from a brand that’s kind of shy… she wants you to know she’s better than the rest, but she doesn’t want to say! You’ll have the chance to do a blind test… & then discover this brand is better than the rest!

So it looks like we will be receiving 3 bottles of nail polish for this first VoxBox of 2014 or maybe nail polish and manicure tools.  I prequalified for this one as a prize from the first box, so you may still have a chance but they have been sending out other invites already.  Log in to your influenster account and make sure they know you are interested in beauty.  Adding your social media accounts on the main profile page can also help increase your score.  You may just get chosen too!

If you want to see what was in the last box, check out the blog post about it here.

Get a FREE 40-Page Personalized Mini Photobook from Photo Book Canada. Value of this freebie is $24. The 40-page photo-book is completely customizable and consists of thick paper with a glossy finish.

HOWEVER there is a catch which I didn’t notice till after completing my order. You have to pay for shipping and you can’t pick up the album from store. I went to Photo Book Canada’s site to calculate shipping costs and for Ontario it ended up being around $9 which is okay but I don’t need a photo album right now so I’m skipping on this one. Your millage may vary depending on where you live. I’d say this is still a great deal if you need to print your Christmas photos in a nice format. I just had to make sure you know it’s not 100% free.

Shipping not included and payable on the partner’s website ($4.99-$11.99 depending on book size). Standard shipping (only applicable for option 1): 12-20 business days and Express shipping: 6-8 business days. Shipping fees must be paid for each photobook.
