Loyalty Program Brings Unexpected Savings
I saved four dollars today without trying. I stopped into Vons, a local supermarket, to pick up some shampoo. I normally wouldn’t buy this at a supermarket as their prices are simply too high. Today I had little time and so I bit the bullet and grabbed the $8.39 shampoo.
At the register I entered my card number and the cashier was quite excited. “You saved four dollars!”
Vons has a program were every twelve dollars you spend on health an beauty items until 12/5/06 you get four dollars off. At five dollars this is probably a little bit of a savings of Target or Wal-Mart. The receipt says I have another $7.26 towards my next $12.
Look out for this and other similar loyalty programs at place where you have a club or membership card.
