It’s that time again! Shoppers Drug Mart’s highly anticipated Bonus Redemption Weekend is happening on Saturday, June 5 and Sunday, June 6, 2010. I know a lot of SC’ers love this event, and some of us missed the last one in May because we didn’t have enough points. Here is our second chance to redeem and use those coupons that are expiring on June 30, 2010. I love reading the “Brag” forum after one of these redemption weekends. Free stuff? YES PLEASE! 

Click here to view the SDM flyer posted by Sharpie. Thanks Sharpie! You’re a doll! Now I can make my list of free items to redeem for.

NOTE: Redemption amount may vary from each province and territory. Check your local SDM flyer to be 100% sure.

Thanks to elisssabetta for the early heads up!

MAC Cosmetics/Estee Lauder is having another warehouse sale, these occur every 4 months (March, June, September and December), this time it’s June 4-6, 2010. Smartcanucks does not have access to tickets, I am just posting this for information purposes to let people know when and where it is. You can get tickets if you know a MAC makeup artist or Estee Lauder brand employee, since that is who these tickets are available to.

When:
June 4, 5 and 6th 2010

Where:
Markham Fairgrounds, Ontario

These events are very popular and are filled with awesome sales on make up products, tickets go fast. Some examples of the sales include: lip products 2 for $10, eyeshadows/pigments $9, face powders $10 and foundations $12. You can buy tickets from sellers on sites like ebay, kijiji and craiglists too, if you want to go that route.

McDonalds is bringing back their $1 fountain drinks, from June 1 – Sept 6, 2010, you can get any size fountain drink for only $1, any time of day. Nice way to cool off in the warm weather.

Do you collect icoke points? If you do, you may be interested in redeeming for Blue Jays tickets. They just updated their prizes and there is lots of different dates and games to choose from. The point levels range depending on the seating level. For just 11,820 points you can get 2 tickets on the 500 level, lower levels cost more. There is a bunch of night games and day games so you have a nice selection to choose from right now. Get yours soon, as they will probably go fast!

Thanks to BobSagget for sharing this deal with us!

2 years ago I wrote a blog post complaining about the way cheese was placed on Subway sandwiches.

According to the consumerist it seems like Subway in Australia has finally listened to its customers and starting on July 1st, 2010 cheese will be tessellated on sandwiches. Hopefully Subway Canada will start doing the same too! This is usually all I can think of when at Subway! The unnecessary cheese overlap and missing coverage .. Yep I’m a nerd 😀

Watergirl73 posted about these Canadian loyalty cards rewards on FlyersCoupons and I thought I’d share it with SC readers!

Which loyalty card offers the best rewards?
by MoneySense staff originally posted on Yahoo Finance

Here are the cards to use — and avoid

A lot of retailers want you to carry their loyalty card in your wallet or purse, but how much are their mysterious points actually worth? We crunched the numbers for seven major Canadian retail loyalty programs to find out.

To come up with our ranking, we calculated how many dollars worth of points you get after presenting your card at the check-out for purchases totalling $100. We excluded special promotions and loyalty programs that are linked to credit cards, and we just looked at easy-to-price items, such as gift cards, to evaluate the redemption value for points.

What did we find? The rewards vary wildly, with Shoppers Drug Mart offering five times the bang for your buck as Petro-Canada. Here’s the list, from best to worst.

Shoppers Optimum

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: $1.70
Value of one point: 0.17¢
Point redemption offer: 15,000 points gets you a $25 credit at Shoppers Drug Mart

Best Buy Reward Zone

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: $1.25
Value of one point: 1.25¢
Point redemption offer: 400 points gets you a $5 credit at Best Buy

Air Miles

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: 67¢
Value of one reward mile: 13¢
Point redemption offer: The most common earning rate is one reward mile for every $20 spent. We based the redemption rate on 150 points for a $20 dollar Rona gift certificate

HBC Rewards

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: 63¢
Value of one point: 0.0125¢
Point redemption offer: 200,000 points gets you a $25 HBC gift card

Esso Extra

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: 56¢
Value of one point: 0.56¢
Point redemption offer: 1,800 points gets you $10 worth of gas at Esso

Canadian Tire money

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: 50¢
Value of one Canadian Tire dollar: $1
Point redemption offer: You get half a cent in Canadian Tire paper money—and now coins—for every dollar you spend, and you redeem them at par

Petro Canada’s Petro Points

Dollar value of the points you get for spending a hundred bucks: 33¢
Value of one point: 0.07¢
Point redemption offer: 15,000 points gets you a $10 Petro-Canada fuel credit

Hi everyone!

I’m sorry I haven’t been blogging as much recently since I’ve had loads of school work to do but I should be done with school forever very soon and I’ll be able to dedicate way more time to SmartCanucks 😀

I already have some very exciting new stuff planned and ready for the blog. Expect loads of gifts and prizes, as well as new and interesting articles and more deals analysis! You should see major improvement to the blog over the next few weeks and we’ll be going full throttle heading into the fall.

I’m also looking for creative writers who can write  fun and entertaining articles (not necessarily about deals) and make the blog more entertaining and enjoyable to read. If you think you have the special skills to write appealing blog posts let me know. This is a paid position although it’s a very very minimal amount. You can reach me at smartcanucks [at] gmail d0t com. Let me know why you’d do a great job if you were to become a creative writer on SmartCanucks 😀

In this week’s Sobeys (ON) flyer, Kelloggs Special K cereals are on sale for $2.99. Use your $2 off Special K Blueberry cereal from save.ca and get it for only $0.99. Great time to stock up on yummy cereal! If you find some with the free cereal/milk/yogurt/bananas/juice FPC, then an even better deal. The flyer runs until Thursday, June 3, 2010.

Thanks to chantelk for the great deal post!
