[Sport Chek] 50x CT Money on Apple Watch Series 3 Aug 23-29

Deal Link:: https://www.sportchek.ca/campaigns/50x- ... id=wk34-T5
Savings:: 20% bonus
Expiry:: August 29, 2018
Retailer:: Sport Chek

Sport Chek is running a promo this week for 50x Canadian Tire money on “select” Apple Watch Series 3 models. From the web site it appears to be the non cellular ones. This should work out to 20% back in CT money. If you pay with discounted gift cards (still on for 15% off at CT until end of Aug 23 I believe), it gets better.

For example the 42 mm is $470+tax which should get you $94 back in CT money if my math is right. If you pay with gift cards you’re only paying $400+tax out of pocket, but still getting the $94 back. Seems pretty warm if you’re in the market.

Of course there will always be a newer better model coming out in future. But this seems like a pretty decent discount for a current generation Apple product.

Could this be combined with the Friday/Saturday bonus day?

I think you may be mistaken. Why would they put an exclusion on the purchase of GC's when the promo is for the watch. I think it means you don't get the points if you purchase the watch using gift cards.

Agree
CT gc had 10% off before, that’s 10% + 20% is stackable

No, it means you don't get the points buying gift cards. You still get the points purchasing a product with gift cards. It's the same as when Canaidan Tire has their offers on the app and the point days. No $30 for speeding $150 if you buy gift cards, so on and so forth.

That offer “excludes select brands and styles” but I can’t see a list of exclusions on the website. So YMMV I guess. I would expect Apple to be excluded but if not, another 8-12% back would be nice.

I don't think that's correct. This deal is only for certain styles of Apple watch. They don't need to specify that you won't earn points by purchasing gift cards, because you won't earn points by purchasing anything other than those specific models of Apple watch.

Up until a few days ago, they were giving out gift cards for a certain level of purchases (e.g. $50 if you spend $200 or more on hockey equipment). But these gift cards can only be used from Aug 23 - Sept 12. So I'm not surprised that they are excluding deals from these gift cards.

Bonus CT Money is in addition to the base earn rate you’re already earning.
So a Triangle credit card holder making the purchase on his/her Triangle credit card, would receive a total of 24% return on that $470 watch.
Triangle rewards card (red card) holders would receive 20.4% return.
I guess I’m buying an Apple Watch this weekend!

Can a knowledgeable person please explain to me the difference in a regular Apple Watch and the Nike+?
I’m going to venture to guess the Nike+ model is just preloaded with more crapware than the regular watch. Is that right?

Combine the 50x with this weekends 20x/30x event and it really makes it hot.

Has anyone made a purchase of a watch using their Triangle credit card yet?
I bought mine yesterday morning and still not a penny of CT Money has been added to my account.
It’s usually instant.

I bought one yesterday ($430) and got the CT money today on my card. I used a $235 GC and paid $259 on my CT credit card for the watch. I got $131.46 of CT money today when I was expecting about $86. I don't know how that happened, but I'm not complaining.
