More Rewards (More Fabulous!)

logo47As a FFF reader you know I love sharing tips on saving money and stretching your dollar. I’m also a huge fan of rewards programs and am a member of more than I can count.

I find it ridiculous to not present a rewards card at check out, why leave those points and redemptions sitting there?

With Save-On-Foods now officially open here in Regina (with three more stores set to open in the future in our province), now is the time to sign-up for their rewards program, the very first time you visit the store (seriously, imaging shopping there for a year and then finally deciding you should “probably get that card”). On my past visits there has always been a helpful staff member to assist you on the sign-up process, but if not you can visit customer service upon entering the store, or speak with a cashier.

Like all rewards programs, the More Rewards program gives you a points value per dollar spent in store. Currently, the structure is 1 point per dollar spent. However, there are of course ways to earn bonus rewards on particular items every week. Also, you’ll note that the Save-On-Foods flyers have bonus rewards coupons as well. I recently did a huge shopping haul at Save-On-Foods with the bonus coupon which offered 2500 points for every $100 purchase. That set me up nicely to start accumulating More Rewards points.

Now, the fun part – what can customers redeem More Rewards points for? As a More Rewards member, you are able to simply earn and redeem points as you go on grocery items (free milk, free potatoes, this can help busy cash-strapped families weekly) or you can horde your points like I do and wait to redeem for something larger.

Like a trip? More Rewards has a huge travel section on their website, where you can see destinations worth putting on your dream board to work towards, and ways that you can earn More Rewards points on your family travel. Of course, there’s also a huge More Rewards catalog filled with everything from gift cards to kitchen appliances to pet products!

When you log into your More Rewards account online, you can even see your transaction history and where you earned the most points. I love this part because you can clearly see how utilizing bonus offers pays off.

Once you’re signed up for e-commerce Online Shopping with Save-On-Foods, your More Rewards card can be entered into your account info as well, so you’ll always earn rewards on your deliveries.

Keep an eye out for news coming soon about a new credit card in the More Rewards program, giving shoppers up to 6x the points on all purchases made at Save-On-Foods and partner locations. It just keeps getting better!

Happy shopping, frugal shoppers. And many happy rewards to you!
