How sticky are the merchants about being a student (and showing ID)?

^ Not at all, with Zellers being the exception. I went in to pick up an itty bitty box of S.O.S. pads and flashed my SPC card and the lady at the counter was all “Next time, you’re supposed to show your I.D.”.
The other stores don’t seem to care too much – in fact most of the time I didn’t even have to show my SPC card, I only had to mention that I had it – this has included Zellers the odd time (which is particularly funny considering how strict they are).
The same thing has happened to me. Often, I say I have an SPC card and for the most part they don’t even bother to look at it. Zellers however, almost always asks me for ID, so I just flash them my old student card. Haven’t had any problems.
I ordered mine on the first promotion, must have been aobut a month ago….still waiting
just ordered mine… great dealio!!
But really… $50 bucks at best buy is nothing…
Still spend more than $50 at Guess to buy something
^ Actually, the Guess GC doesn’t require you to spend a minimum. As such, you could opt out of spending a fortune on their clothes and head towards their jewelery rack – I’ve seen rings and stuff between $15 and $25 (at their cheapest) – so if something caught your eye, it wouldn’t be so bad 🙂
PLUS, Guess accepts SPC. In the same transaction you should be able to save 10% on full and sale merchandise at Guess.
The Guess GC is the only one that doesn’t have a minimum purchase requirement; however, after looking at the average prices in their store/website, I’m more likely to use the $10 Best Buy GC with my rewards points towards a new DVD shelf or component cables for my new Sammy TV.
Got my SPC card today. I ordered it July 2nd and received my gift card. Great deal! thank you again!
Bump there still a great deal!
