Two different Shoppers Drug Mart stores in the span of three days playing Thinking of You.

What is also common with the two Shoppers Drug Mart stores. I mentioned both to Katy. One in-person (it is open 24/7 along with one doing me a favour which I told Katy about). Other one was mentioned in my letter that the manager understands who I am and I…[Read more]

Sorry I am late with this one. Didn’t post last week’s since it really wasn’t interesting. Though this one will more than make up along with being sick the last few days. Feeling better now.

Super Spend Your Points (January 13th and 14th):

Redeem 38,000 points, get $75 (an extra $15)
Redeem 50,000 points, get $105 (an extra $20)
Redeem 95,000…[Read more]

Went to the same Shoppers Drug Mart and talked to the employee there.

Wide Awake was playing. I asked her, “you know this song?” She said, “I do, but I ain’t as knowledgeable as you.”

Get a store that is very supportive of what I do. Especially knowing that they did call me, “one of their most valuable customers too.”

December 30th to January 5:

Saturday ONLY: Spend $50, get 20x the points

January 2nd and 3rd: Spend $75, get 18,500 points ($25 value)

The flyer states the Indi gift set is 40 percent off. This is incorrect which is actually 50 percent off (confirmed with staff on pricing on both sizes).

Not in the flyer: If you purchase the Indi fragrance…[Read more]

This one is going to be a bit awkward because the points promotion isn’t happening on the weekend (December 23rd and 24th) because it is close to Christmas.

Along with being a very short flyer too. The flyer is only three days long too (December 26th to 28th) ending on Thursday because of New Years Day.

December 26th to 28th:

December 26th and…[Read more]

Shoppers Drug Mart flyer preview (December 9th to 15th):

Spend $100, get 18,500 points ($25 value). Next week is going to be spend $100, get 20x the points.

Also, they just stocked Katy Kat Gloss today. The cost is $11.99 and there are 10 shades. It isn’t advertised in this week’s flyer for some reason. But should be in next week’s…[Read more]

Shoppers Drug Mart flyer preview (December 2nd to December 8th):

Spend $75, get 20x the points (Saturday ONLY)

The flyer advertises the Indi gift set 50 mL for $58. Confirmed with staff that both the 30 mL and 50 mL sets are 50 percent off until Christmas. Not sure why the significant price reduction since Mad Love and Mad Potion sets were not…[Read more]

This just came in 20 minutes ago.

Buy the Indi fragrance (50 mL bottle), get 16,000 points ($20 value). The offer is only valid on Black Friday.

Pretty good deal since 1/3 of the value is being credited in points. Though I haven’t confirmed if spend offers (Spend $75, get 20x the points on cosmetics and fragrances) or other spend offers (spend…[Read more]

This is definitely one that I am happy to drop today. It is Spend Your Points Plus which is the same as last year.

November 25th and 26th is when the event happens.

Spend 50,000 points ($85 value), get 16,000 back ($20 value)
Spend 95,000 points ($170 value), get 30,000 back ($40 value)

Additional value gets credited within 2 to 3…[Read more]

Forgot to post this yesterday.

I was at Shoppers Drug Mart (24 hours locally) and they were playing Wide Awake.

Which I also will note, it is also the same store that I told Katy during the meet and greet about a favour they did for me. I felt it was only right to tell her directly during this one opportunity (the employee gave me the Indi socks…[Read more]

I don’t have the full flyer preview yet. The person who was posting them pretty much took a break.

But I was correct in this week’s flyer preview regarding the points promotion. Along with a hidden deal on the 30 mL Indi gift set (staff have advised me on the price adjustment).

November 18th to November 24th:

Spend $75 on cosmetics and…[Read more]

November 10th to November 17th:

Saturday ONLY: Spend $50, get 20x the points
Sunday ONLY: Spend $75, get two free movie tickets

I most likely have an idea for what the next points promotions are for the next two weeks. Though, it could change since they are based on the previous years:

November 18th to November 25th:

Spend $75, get 20x the…[Read more]

@rosi Correct, you go with the higher RAM, it will last a lot longer. Knowing that it is what powers your computer.

@Rosi I have heard people keep their MacBook/iMac computers for 5 to 7 years. People often keep these ones the longest.

Though, it also depends on how upgraded it is. My last MacBook was a MacBook Air and it only had 4 GB of RAM which wouldn’t last beyond three years because of the requirement demands. Only kept that one for three years and then…[Read more]

Here is my meet and greet report. Thanks to @evrenperry for inviting me as his +1.

Though don’t want to bore you with the other groups that were ahead and just got a photo. I am focusing on Katycats.com and my version of the events. Knowing that each one is unique.

The story:

I was the last one to get a photo with her. Before that, I asked her…[Read more]
