Resistance isn't always futile. You can just ignore the targeted stuff. :nod:

I'm bemused at why I've been "targeted" with the dog food!

We get targeted coupons from another store (they say they are tailored to our needs) that includes mostly offers for baby things like diapers.

I assume its because from time to time I buy some apple sauce from the baby food aisle as it tastes better then the stuff in the normal aisle.

Scary stuff if thats getting near the mark.

Relationship marketing. Have you been looking at offers of cheap cuts of meat or anything involving St. Hubert?

Like you, I'd be grateful if anyone could say the benefits of using it and how it actually works.

Up until this week I would have heartily endorsed PC points, because yes, it's been rather easy/painless to collect then redeem points as $$ off grocery shopping without too much effort.
