jeff_14 Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Just got my weekly PC Plus (ie Loblaws) email with special offers and for every $40 you spend on toys, you get 16,000 points, which is equal to $16. That's 40% off. The last time they did this deal it was only 8,000 points and I happened to get 7 Wolverine Choppers on discount for $7 total. Quote
peenutz Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 Member specific, my best deal is 800 points for every peanut purchase I make... I guess I buy a lot of peanuts... Quote

In that case, consider my example as a reason to start buying toys at RCSS. This is only the second toy deal I've gotten and it's already twice as good as the previous one. Quote
massakassa Posted October 31, 2014 Posted October 31, 2014 I think its indeed a random deal that people get, like i got a non food deal for books and magazines this week while i never buy them. Hope it will pop up someday though. Quote
seapotato Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 Mine is 3500 bonus points wus $35 on frozen foods. I rarely buy frozen foods so im not sure why i got this haha! Quote
joshmxpx Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 Mine was 5000 for $25 spent on diapers... Wonder if they are based on shopping habits or are random Quote
anolian Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 The whole point of PC plus is that it caters to each individual member it tracks your sales and gives you offers based on what u buy most. We buy lots of diapers we like josh I got the pampers deal. Sometimes they have bonus offers that or for everyone. The last big one was buy $100 in groceries get 20000 points. Quote
massakassa Posted November 1, 2014 Posted November 1, 2014 Well, if they never give us a deal on toys in the first place than they wont find out that we like to buy toys/Lego. They should give you an option to select what you're interested in buying and offer you deals accordingly, now i have to wait till they dangle the toy deal in front of my face. Quote
jeff_14 Posted November 3, 2014 Author Posted November 3, 2014 I find RCSS is pretty reliable about discounting toys by anywhere from 33 to 50% off. I've taken advantage of a few of those over the years and now with PC Plus I'm getting even more rewards. I ended up getting a bunch of $25 superhero sets, which I figured were really $14 each when you factor in the PC points. The Cap/Hydra one is worth more than twice that (in USD) according to this site so that's a better than 100% return already. Quote
Flemdog33 Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 You can get hydra on amazon for $14 and change and several other sites. Not sure it's a great deal. Quote
jeff_14 Posted November 3, 2014 Author Posted November 3, 2014 (edited) That's a US site, and at that price involves shipping and currency conversion. I'll take 40% off lego any day. There's not a set I've bought at that discount that I haven't doubled my money on. Edited November 3, 2014 by jeff_14 Quote
lego rules Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 That's a US site, and at that price involves shipping and currency conversion. I'll take 40% off lego any day. There's not a set I've bought at that discount that I haven't doubled my money on. I guess you didn't buy any 7961 or 7962's Quote
jeff_14 Posted November 3, 2014 Author Posted November 3, 2014 I would have if they had any but those are long gone if RCSS even ever had any. They tend to stick to sets no more than $65 CDN. Quote
lego rules Posted November 3, 2014 Posted November 3, 2014 If you had bought them, then you wouldn't have doubled your money Not all lego at discount is a good bet Quote
jeff_14 Posted November 3, 2014 Author Posted November 3, 2014 I bought both sets at 50% off last year and have since sold them for retail price, ie a 100% return. Quote
