For those seeking fantastic savings at the grocery store, a rewards credit card may be worth a look. For Canadians who’ve got room in their pocket for another credit card, one tied to a grocery store chain that you frequently visit or one that offers strong rewards for grocery purchases may make a lot of sense. The question is, what credit card has the best rewards program when it comes to groceries? See below for some options that can help you get free groceries quickly.
PC Financial World Elite Mastercard: While it does have a minimum annual income requirement ($80K personal or $150K household), it also offers some good benefits including 30 points per $1 spent at the Loblaws family of stores (10 points per $1 spend everywhere else), extra points at Shoppers Drug Mart, Esso and Mobil, and travel emergency medical. 10K points is equal to $10 worth of free products and groceries.
