Warning to all members on sca super cheap auto club card

[devilly]

just thought i would let everyone know that you have use your credits within a certain time slot....here's the terms and condition of the sca club card

Loyalty Credits may be issued by SCA as follows:
12.1. Upon paying the $5 club membership fee and approval of the Member’s application for Membership, the Member will be issued $10 complimentary Loyalty Credit. This credit
must be used within 56 days from the date of club membership activation (AEST).

56 days and then the credits is removed from your card, and when you buy something it has to go on sale sometime in the first 2 weeks.after 2 weeks its not applied.

i was going to save up credits for and emergency looks like i'll be using them straight away.

Any loyalty program is designed to get you back into the store to spend money. They obviously budget their loyalty rewards so people can't hang onto them indefinitely then use them all at once and screw with the stores P & L.

Yep thats right you have to use them within a certain time frame, that way they get you back to buy more. What I love about the card is the credit thingy for buying something that's been on sale.

im a bit surprised people are this gullible.

The trick is to only spend what credits you have. Or just buy the thing that you went in there to get anyway, but use the credits instead.
I can see how some people (most probably) would go in and impulse buy something everytime they get a credit, and spend more then they initially had.

But for me its great. Over the last few years its probably saved me quite a bit of cash as I usually only use it when I need a certain thing that day no matter what, then I get credits back so I go in and get something else I need, and nothing else. Win win.
