PC Optimum felt it necessary to email me saying in large bold letters, “You missed out on points on your recent grocery shop.”

Yeah, well maybe I’m not a slave to your marketing. I buy what I want when I want. If that hurts your little feels, too bad. Unsubscribed.

I received a deceptive promo email from #PCOptimum today. "Earn 3.5% interest on your savings* every day … on every dollar you save* – right from day one! No monthly fee, no minimum balance and no time commitment required."

"* … deposit a total of at least $1,500 … using automatic payroll or pension direct deposits."

"There must be a minimum of $1,500 deposited for 3 consecutive months"

"… points will be awarded … 4-6 weeks after …"

In other words, minimum balance and time commitment. Liars.

I don't get how this is a surprise. Shoppers Drug Mart has always been expensive. Somebody has to pay for all those #PCOptimum points & those 20x point events at the end of the day...

Hell, #Rexall isn't much cheaper either. As always, you really gotta shop around, convenience has a cost & SDM is a convenience store that so happens to operate a #pharmacy...

@paulbusch Haven't tried one of them here but I do know there's no cost. Interesting issue whether they give preference to #PCOptimum members. Don't think they could charge more as there's a standard fee for specific services.
