This weekend Shoppers Drug Mart is offering their customers 10x the points AND 10% off, when you spend $50 or more on almost everything in the store! I personally won’t shop at an event unless it’s 20x the points or better but that’s just me! If you need to go to Shoppers anyway, try to hold off until the weekend so you can get the extra points and 10% off!

This weekend Rexall is offering 30 bonus Airmiles to their customers when you spend $30 in their store. They really want to compete with SDM I guess and since their minimum spend amount is lower, I bet some people will choose to shop here instead!

*Based on a minimum spend of $30 or more before taxes. Bonus offer valid Saturday August 14 and Sunday August 15, 2010 in Ontario Only excluding Thunder Bay. 30 Bonus AIR MILES reward miles offer per applicable transaction only. AIR MILES Base and Bonus Offers exclude prescriptions, products containing codeine, postal services and stamps, Gift Card Express, lottery, transit tickets and taxes.

Thanks Kerri for pointing the dates out 🙂

Theres only three days left in the 15 cent print sale at Photolab.ca.  Prints are regularly 19 cents each, so if your ordering a fair bit this will bring the price down quite  a bit. Collages and prints 11×14 and up are also 50% for a few more days.

Personally I only use Photolab.ca I love the quality and the fact that their ready generally within a few hours of the next business day and I can pick up at any Loblaws owned store of my choice.
