Is it just me or have all the online store prices increased greatly over the last week? Seems that a week ago the prices were: 1. ballcap: 6000 points now 15000 2. key chain: 5000 points now 8000 3. mug : 7000 points now 20000 4. t-shirt: 6000 points now 25000
The increase is the same with most point programs. The greater the participation the higher the points. Aeroplan is the same. Flights within Canada are originally near 25K points. However, when you try to book, they are usually 75 - 125K. Once I was able to book a aeroplan Air Canada Flight to Regina from Ottawa for 25K, but it was at the end of January. Let me tell you, I thought I was landing in Sibera. That's why the flight was 25K. It was no Club Med!
You know when I first got into entering codes about a month ago, it was only a matter of a week or so with a 2500 point code here, and 1000 point there that I earned a couple of ballcaps and t-shirts. Ofcourse I thought this was fantastic.
Now I figure it's evolving into more like chasing things. A Catch 22. Just before I get enough points to buy something, they'll jack the price up, and so on and so on.

What's up with all that?

Yes I have noticed the same.
Wondering what is going on here.
I have a feeling they are going to cut out the "bonus points".
We shall see.
