Have you applied for your new PC Plus card yet? They have been advertising it on TV a lot lately, so I got myself one.
The first time I asked for one they gave me a post card that had a web address on it. But that was meant to sign up a PC financial card to this new system, and was not the new points card itself. While I have their financial card, I found I don't really like charging for groceries and getting a shock at the end of the month. I just wanted the points card. The next time I went they gave me the right one, and they activated it right there, so I even went home with points from that day's purchase.
I looked online and discovered they have a very well designed website. Each week you "load" the products that earn points onto your card account from the website. The products offered will be more and more in line with the type of things you buy on a regular basis. Over time the system keeps track of your preferred products, so it can tailor the sales, and the site to you. There are recipes on there, based either on what's on sale that week, or the products you tend to buy, or both. It's your choice. You can make out a meal plan, and have the site issue you a shopping list. I think it may become one of my favorite sites to visit.
As for the points, they add up far more quickly than I would expect. I have just gone on my third weekly shopping trip and already I had enough points to cash in for $20 off my grocery bill. That was perfect timing, as we all know that Christmas extras add a lot to that bill. I feel like I got $20 off my turkey this year, and that feels like an early Christmas present from the President's Choice people. I'm already a quarter of the way to being able to cash in more points. You have to reach the $20 level before you can cash in, but you can wait and add more in $10 increments if you chose to. Apparently you can even add other family and friend's cards to the same account so that you can pile up the points even faster. I'm not sure who would agree to that, unless several people within a family all do the shopping and this way no points would be missed out on.
At this point I have to say, if you don't already have one of these PC Plus cards, go get one.
And thank you Presidents Choice.
