If you are a Shoppers Optimum points collector, this post may interest you. I shopped there yesterday and the cashier told me there are changes coming, this caused much panic in the forum on this site. Well today, Shoppers updated their website to reflect those changes. I know some people are saying there won’t be bonus redemptions or PLUS status kickbacks anymore, this has not been confirmed however. Changes to reward programs happen all the time and they are inevitable. I remember when I first joined Optimum years and years back, you could redeem for $5 at 3500 points.

Basically the points levels have been increased, so you need more points to redeem for each level. Here is the rundown of the new and old system for points redemption

Old:

New (as of July 1, 2010)

You can read all about the changes at the links below:

I would of called these twirl shirts myself cause they are fun to twirl in… but they are cute, especially the womens ones. These normally go for $30 something (for women), so this is a decent deal. See in store for more details.

I have been waiting for Lay’s Chips to go on sale so I can stock up and cash in the points found on the bags for Chip Trips. This weekend June 5-7 Shoppers Drug Mart has them on sale for just $1.88. Most of the large bags have 10 points on them but some have 2x that or 20 points on them. So if you purchase one of the 10 point bags and one of the 20 point bags you will pay just $3.76 and have 30 points which is enough points to cash in for a $5 Subway gift card. There is a limit of just one gift card per account so I have been sending them to my family and friends because we eat lost of chips!!

To those of you out there with allergies or dry eyes, you can now get some relief for a little bit less.  You can print a coupon to save $2 on ANY Visine product.  My eyes get really red after swimming because of all the chlorine in the pool so I could definitely use this coupon for the summer.  The coupon is good until December 31, 2010 so you have lots of time to use it.

This week Sobeys here in Atlantic Canada has Ben’s English Muffins white or whole wheat 6’s on sale for just $0.97. There are $0.50 coupons that were found in stores. So if you have this coupon you will pay just $0.47. I used the last of mine last week and sure wish I had more so I could stock up on this great deal before the coupon expires the end of the month.

Thanks to couponlady for this great coupon post.

In the Rexall (ON) flyer (June 5-11, 2010), Puffs Plus Lotion facial tissue (1 box, 72’s) is advertised for $0.99 each. Use your “Save $1.25 on any 2 Bounty, Charmin, or Puffs” coupon, and pay only $0.37 each. That comes to $2.22 for six boxes, which is way cheaper than any six-pack of boxed facial tissues out there. Great time to stock up! There is also a “Save $0.50 on any 1 Puffs” coupon, which you can use and pay only $0.49 each. These coupons can be found in the P&G Brandsaver flyer insert (coming this weekend in your local newspaper!), and can also be ordered online at www.brandsaver.ca.
