A couple of months ago it was brought up that if you spent money at Meijers on the last day of the month and used MPerks, that amount would transfer over into the next month's MPerks rewards.
Well...I have been paying close attention the past 2 months to my MPerks rewards and I think I figured out how it works (and how to do it). If you have any questions...I will try to answer them, but here is what I found to be true...
Here is my scenario for March 31st-April1st (and did something similar Feb 28th-March 1st):
Last day of the month: You MUST COMPLETE a MPerks rewards on this day.
I needed $77 to earn a general reward of buy $250 get $10. On March 31st (at 8:00 pm to be exact), I bought $78.75 worth of stuff (did the Suave deal 5 times, so my total oop was $1.08 x 5 = $5.40).
First day of the next month:
I checked my MPerks on April 1st. I earned the $10 reward from the previous night's purchase, so I clicked on the button to accept my reward. Once I did that it gave me the options for the new month, and I chose the general reward option (this is the SAME type of reward that I had just earned but for this month it is buy $100 get $5...go figure???). Nothing happens... so don't expect it to show up right away. But you HAVE to click on the SAME type of reward that you had earned the night before.
Second day of the month:
Check your MPerks and the amount that you spent on the last day of the month will be shown as earned for your reward. In my case, $78.75 is how much I have spent in April and I have $21.25left to spend in April and then I earn my reward.
This also works on the other types rewards, but I had already earned the beauty, health, and hair care ones in March.
If you do not complete a reward on the last day of the month, this will NOT work. For example, I had spent $3.50 on piece of jewelry March 31st. I had clipped the $5/20 Jewelry reward but since I only spent 3.50 it did not complete the reward, so that 3.50 did not transfer over to April (this was on another MPerks account different from the example I gave above).
You will also notice that if you check your MPerks rewards on the website the first day of the month, the clipped rewards that you did not complete still show up (with the previous month's expiration date). You will not be able to choose a new reward until the second day of the month.
I hope that was clear...but for anyone that likes Meijer and uses MPerks this is a great "perk" and a great double dip (as long as you understand how it works).
