Wednesdays: Lindo’s Offers 8% Card Discount
In addition to the 10% discount on Wednesdays for cash sales, Lindo’s will be offering an 8% discount on credit card and debit card sales from December 18th 2013 through November 30th 2014.
In last month’s Throne Speech the Government announced that the three major grocers — MarketPlace, Supermart and Lindo’s — will increase their Wednesday discount from 5% to 10%.
Wednesday discounts do not apply to purchases of alcohol, tobacco, magazines, and pharmacy items.
Does this simply equate to supermarkets putting their prices up on items and then offering and extra 5% discount? That extra 5% discount they are offering is going to need to be made up from somewhere.
I’m just saying! I wonder who is checking to see if prices are increased on tuesday night. Are we really getting the real discount.
I’m just saying! Somebody’s watching you.
“In addition to the 10% discount on Wednesdays for cash sales, Lindo’s will be offering an 8% discount on credit card and debit card sales from December 18th 2013 through November 30th 2014.”
Uh..no, I don’t think so. That means 18% discount using a credit or debit card. You know that ain’t happening.
More like 10% for cash, 8% using a card. Fair enough. The banks charge 2% plus commission on cards.
What is really going on? Is that 8% disc using cards EVERYDAY from 12/18/13 to 11/30/14?
Sorry, maybe we weren’t clear but that is what we mean; the 10% was stated for cash sales, with 8% for credit/debit. Both on Wednesdays.
It means that on Wednesdays you get 10% off what you would have otherwise paid if you pay cash. That is the same as was announced a few weeks ago. The new thing is that if you pay by credit card you get 8% off on Wednesdays.
It’s one or the other. You can’t get 18% off. And it’s only Wednesdays.
Duh…did some ppl actually think it was 18% off? LISTEN UP!!!! AIR FOR SALE—25% off w/cash on everday that ends with a “y”…
Some bloggers…. you just have to love them.
