Bold-Arrow Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 I received this yesterday. Not sure if it is targeted to my account as it doesn't have any codes or barcodes to scan. Thought I would share it Quote
grackleflint Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 It is somewhat targeted at least in reward value. I got the same type of postcard from TRU yesterday but mine mentions a $15 reward for $300 in purchases, so basically 5% rewards for my offer. Quote
knarrff Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 If it would be targeted to your account, wouldn't there be a "buy Lego" category? 1 Quote

I got the same type of postcard from TRU yesterday but mine mentions a $15 reward for $300 in purchases, so basically 5% rewards for my offer. This one doesn't specify a minimum amount. Just says the transaction has to be paid in full on the TRU CC Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Can you take a picture of the other side too ? This is most likely targeted marketing. As I said in the other thread, my flyer looks different. It says Earn $15 Rewards on $300 of purchases. Fine print says only 1 $15 rewards per qualifying purchases. I got a vestly inferior offer :( Quote

I like this offer too: 1 Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 ^ The way I read the fine print, each account is only eligible for 1 $10 rewards. So 1 reward bonus no matter how many usage outside TRU, am I right ? Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Hmm - but then I have to hand out that colorful card everywhere. Decisions... Quote

I'm still not convinced that you can buy a 1$ gum and get 10$ back though In that scenario you are only out $1 to try. I have to spend $300 to get $15 rewards. What if I use the card to buy a new tool for $299 + 1 $1 gum and they deny me the rewards because gum is not eligible for the promo Quote

Next time I am at lowes, I am going to see what the cheapest bolt / nail is lol Quote

The $10 offer doesn't have that restriction so it's easier to do. Quote

The $10 offer doesn't have that restriction so it's easier to do. You are correct. $15 of $300 is 5% back on gas which is better than my other cc rewards at the moment. The key is to get it as close to $300 as possible. I am going to stick with gas purchases just because it will be super easy to pinpoint/argue with should they deny my rewards. The things I do to get $15 discounts on LEGO Hmm - but then I have to hand out that colorful card everywhere. Decisions... Plus I do not have to show the card to anyone when paying for gas Oregon and New Jersey residents, you are on your own on this one Quote
