I always wait for these deals and got this off the RFD page in case any of you TOTA's were looking to buy an ipod or anything else for that matter:
Shoppers Drug Mart (SDM) are having a Secret Thursday Event on June 1st, 2006 where you receive 20x the points when you spend $50 or more
Tell a friend and when they spend $50 or more you receive 1000 bonus points (up to a maximum of 100,000 points) and so on...
https://www.shoppersoptimum.ca/
Details:
Register today for this exciting one day event where joyful rewards await:
- Spend $50 or more* and receive 20x the Shoppers Optimum Points™
Spread the joy and collect up to 100,000 Shoppers Optimum Bonus Points!
- Get your friends to register and earn 1000 Bonus Points for each friend that shops and spends $50 or more on the day of the event.
- Receive an extra 1000 Bonus Points for each friend they refer (and so on) who registers and spends $50 or more on the day of the event.
After the June 1st 20x event, we will email you an exclusive redemption event certificate so you can redeem 40,000 points for $100 off your purchase on June 10th or 11th . That's worth an extra $25 in free products.
What do people usually buy on a SDM 20x events?
Well according to many previous RFD posts, iPod is the hottest product to buy in a 20X event. For new RFDers, here is how it works:
Regularly, you collect 10 Shoppers Optimum Points for every $1 you spend at Shoppers Drug Mart. On a 20x day you get 20 times the points i.e. 20×10 = 200 Shoppers Optimum Points for every $1 you spend
So for iPods you’ll approximately get (iPod prices slightly changed but I’m too lazy to recalculate):
- iPod Video 30GB costs $379 so you get 379 x 200 = 75800 points
- iPods Nano 4GB costs $299 so you get 299 x 200 = 59800 points
- iPods Nano 2GB costs $249 so you get 249 x 200 = 49800 points
So buying an iPod video on a 20x day would get you a discount of $150.
For the iPod Nano 4GB you get a discount of approximately $110.
For the iPod Nano 2GB you get a discount of approximately $80.
You’ll find it almost impossible to get a better deal on iPods if you want to buy it from a well known retailer.
NOTE: You CANNOT redeem the points immediately on the iPod itself. |

So then what good is this unless you play to spend like $150 on condoms and stuff? |

i go in for one thing and i come out with 20-30 others!!! terrible! i stopped going - it was an evening addiction of mine, after work i would always go there! it's amazing that if a women goes in there for tampon she is likely to come out with the entire store
