Paperless member discount

This article was originally published in March 2016

PCC member card

Based on popular demand, starting this month, PCC members will not need to bring a paper coupon to stores to receive the monthly 10-percent member discount. Simply show your member card — or tell the cashier the phone number associated with your membership — then ask to apply your 10-percent discount. Simple as that.

This “digital coupon” will work with the same rules and restrictions as the paper coupon. It’s good for one shop per month, you must identify yourself as a member to use it and, if you don’t use it by the end of the month, it expires. A new one, good for the next month, will be associated with your member number.

Members have been requesting this change for some time and we’re thrilled to roll it out. We look forward to seeing you in the stores!
