Accidentally discovered this.

No Frills has a posting in-store where you buy 4 specific items (can't remember exactly what they were) and get 4,000 PCO points. You're supposed to buy one of each of the four products, but I bought 4 broccoli crowns (one of the 4 specified items) at $1 each and still got the 4,000 points. Essentially making them free.

This was at the No Frills in Markham - Hwy48/16th.

Is this location specific or Canada-wide?

At the NF on Avenue Rd. (south of Wilson), they didn't have any broccoli crowns, only bunches.

does this work for other combinations of these 4 items?

For example, 4 pineapples get 4k pts?

or 2 pineapples and 2 broccoli crowns?

Cards:HSBC WE MC 1.5%/3% travel 0 FX MC acceptance 31 day med AF $49
CTC WE MC 3% grocery, 3.54% CTC, RA, billpay, AF $0

As of today - Yes it does. It's a glitch so there's no telling if it may stop or not.
I personally bought 2 broccoli and 1 pineapple and 1 onion pack and got the 4000 pts.
Hope this helps answer your question.

Thanks OP.

Happen to have personalized broccoli deal in the PC app.

200 points for every $1 spent on broccoli which stacks with the 4000 points. Total earned was 4800 points.

Got paid 80cents to pick up 4 crowns of broccoli haha.
