Awesome possum!!!!!
Timing of points promo is great for back-to-school and new fall needs.
BTW, does anyone know where the Donate Points link went on the Optimum site? It seems to have gone into hiding or is no longer in use.
SDM’s price always marks up except some weekly special. What do you usually bought for over $50? I never enjoyed these 20X yet.
Will the 20x muliplier be valid if you spend over $50, but use the $10 surprise gift card for this week’s promo to pay a protion of the receipt? I would assume so.
I find that diapers are usually on sale when the 20X points is on. Great time to stock up on something I need, and get the bonus points. I don’t usually check their flyer, but I find the in-store sales are pretty good during the 20X points events.
@Joe I’m pretty sure you have to spend $50 on top of the $10 gift card….I’ve tried to do it before
This is excellent news. I’ve been waiting for a 20x points day for a long time to put in order for my over the counter meds and get the bonus. Seems like it has been longer than usual since the last one.
@SDM member
It never hurts to stock up on their front page sale items that don’t go bad. I have lots of things piled up on shelves in my basement. Also, you can look at high value items that don’t have much markup like a Wii or maybe certain digital cameras. Just look for things that have a competitive price and shop away.
Also, for anyone who is interested I have written a comprehensive guide to getting the most out of the Shoppers Optimum program at my website HowToSaveMoney.ca. It is in the Rewards Programs section.
I’ve tried to find it… but does anyone know if the photo lab counts? If i pick up photos and a photo book I emailed on the 20x Saturday, will that count towards the $50??
@Shopoholic
Yes, as long as you pick up and pay for your order on a 20x points day, it will count towards your purchase.
Awesome!! Thank you! 🙂
