It\u2019s normal at this time for companies to try and dump excess chocolate from the Christmas time as the demand for these isn\u2019t as high where if it expires then you lose a lot.  So what caught my attention was how these chocolates had an offer again where this time you could get 3000 pints for a purchase which costs $8.49.  Since 3000 points is basically three dollars you are essentially buying a pack for $5.49.  Wouldn\u2019t make me go crazy.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"11187\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/getting-so-many-reward-points-for-a-purchase-at-shoppers-drug-mart\/chocalateshoppers\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"900,506\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"chocalateshoppers\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers-300x169.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers.jpg\" alt=\"shoppers drug mart points chocolate\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers-155x87.jpg 155w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/chocalateshoppers-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But then I saw for a specific flavor they were selling it for a clearance price at $4.19 each plus they were offering the 3000 points.  That means each bag would be $1.19.  That definitely caught my attention. I also had a coupon where if you spend $40 they would give you even more points.  Too bad there wasn\u2019t enough of the $4.19 bags to reach $40.  So I ended up buying the other ones as well.  The funny thing is in the end with tax I paid $44.28 and got 36,600 points.  That means I paid $7.68 for all this.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"11188\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/getting-so-many-reward-points-for-a-purchase-at-shoppers-drug-mart\/total\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1000,1069\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"total\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-281x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-958x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-958x1024.jpg\" alt=\"points total reward\" width=\"875\" height=\"935\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-11188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-958x1024.jpg 958w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-147x157.jpg 147w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-281x300.jpg 281w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-768x821.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-300x321.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total-950x1016.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.al6400.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/total.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 875px) 100vw, 875px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I technically gained more because usually they have special days where if you redeem your points they will increase the value of it.  For example, redeem 200,000 points and they make that $275 instead.
