Store Rewards

Store Reward or Loyalty Programs are those by which a store encourages customers to make multiple purchases at their establishment. Some reward programs require the purchaser to  make a large amount of purchases before getting a reward, while others have a very low investment required. 

Short Savings Period

Stores with small purchase requirements include: M&M Meats (immediate savings), and Canadian Tire. 

Medium Savings Period

Shopper's Drug Mart has a median redemption period. 

Long Savings Period

However, it can take a while to save for a redemption at: Zellers, Loblaws, Sears, and Northern Reflections. There are so many different loyalty programs and cards that you almost need a separate wallet to hold them all.

Northern (Reflections) Friends

Northern Friends Rewards Program® , Northern Reflections

 Northern Reflections Ltd. is a Canadian specialty apparel retailer who offers quality casual clothing for today's busy woman with a modern active lifestyle, and provides a complete range of distinctive fashion clothing and accessories. See What's on Clearance.

Membership Enrollment

Purchase a Northern Friends Rewards Card at a Northern Reflections® store or online at www.northernreflections.com. Cost $5.

I recommend buying it in the store.

If purchased in store:
Amount paid for Rewards Card at a participating Northern Reflections store will be credited in full towards  your next purchase at a Northern Reflections store.

BUT...

If purchased online:
Amount paid for Rewards Card will be applied as credit in "Friends Dollar"s to your account.

Card purchased in Canada may be only used by Member at participating  locations in Canada or online at www.northernreflections.com. 

How it Works
Accumulating Friends Dollars

When you make purchases at any participating Northern Reflections® stores or online, you get Friends Dollars at the rate 5% or  ($1) Friends Dollar for every $20 of Northern Reflections regular or sale priced merchandise (excluding gift cards, taxes & shipping). 

Cashing in Friends Dollars
When you have $25 + Friends Dollars (excludes taxes & shipping), you may redeem all or part of the Friends Dollars as a credit towards Northern Reflections® merchandise (excluding gift cards).

Expiry
Friends Dollars expire 24 months after being issued or upon a Member’s request to be removed from the Program.

My 2 Cents Worth

If you purchase it online, you'll need to buy $20x20=$400 more dollars for a total of $405 over the next 2 years ($16.88 aprox per month) before you realize any savings.

On the other hand, purchase the card in the store and you will get your money back on your next purchase. To realize savings this way you will need to purchase $25 x 20 = $500 at Northern Reflections over the next 2 years ($28.34 approx/mo). While you need to spend more money to realize any savings, at least you will not be out any cash outlay after your next visit to the store.
