We will be including this month's winners in March's newsletter!

You do not need to do anything special to participate. All you need to do is forward us as many usable emails as possible!


Direct Energy Bonus!

New for March, we are offering up to 500 bonus points for material specifically about Direct Energy's rewards programs. These new programs award customers the ability to earn prizes simply by paying their energy bills on time. To date there are four different options; Direct Energy Rewards, Family Rewards, Travel Rewards, and Shopper's Rewards.

If you have this material, please write "DIRECT" on your mailbag and/or within the body of the email when sending it in.

Please note that you cannot earn both the "ENERGY" bonus and this one for the same piece of mail. In the event that one piece qualifies for both, we will automatically award it the higher bonus.

Manitoba Insurance Act Bonus!

Also new for March, we are offering up to 500 bonus points for material about the Manitoba Insurance Act, which applies changes to group health insurance. 

If you have this sort of material, please reply to this email with a brief description of what you have and I will give you further instructions on how to earn your bonus points!


Express Scripts Canada Bonus!

We are now offering up to 500 bonus points for material from Express Scripts Canada. In particular, Empire Life recently switched their prescription service partner to Express Scripts Canada, so some consumers will be getting new benefits cards.

If you have this sort of material, please reply to this email with a brief description of what you have and I will give you further instructions on how to earn your bonus points!

Grocery Store Bonus

In March, we are offering 100 bonus points for mailings from grocery stores. We are particularly interested in pieces that include high-value coupons. Often, these are in the form of large postcards that are mailed directly to you.

If you have this material, please write "GROCERIES" on your mailbag when sending it in.

Please note:  Only material that was directly mailed to you and has your printed address on it are eligible for this bonus. Grocery flyers, newspaper inserts, and materials picked up in-store will still earn points, but do not qualify for this bonus.



Energy Bonus!

You can earn a special bonus of 500 points for direct mail and email from Electric, Gas and Green Energy companies. 

To ensure you receive your bonus points, be sure to write "ENERGY" on your mailbags and/or within the body of the email!

Please note: Only statements, welcome kits or pieces trying to entice you to sign up for NEW services will qualify. Other types of energy material will still earn points, but they are not eligible for the bonus points!



Referral Bonuses!

When you refer a friend, you can earn 500 bonus points!*

Just direct your referrals to our web contact form and instruct them to type your name in the space where it asks "How did you hear about the SBKC Consumer Panel?"

You may refer as many people as you would like, so start earning those points today!

* 250 points will be added to your account when your referral has participated for 1 month. The remaining 250 points will be added when your referral has completed 3 months of participation. Your referrals will also earn 250 bonus points after the first month they participate.


Gift Card Information

Now, when you collect 2000 points, you will receive a $20 Visa Prepaid Card within the mail. These cards can be used either online or in-store anywhere Visa debit cards are accepted. There are no fees or charges, so you receive your entire well-deserved incentive! 

You can access your card information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at prepaidcardstatus.com or by calling 1-866-230-3809.

Oikos Unwrap to Play contest - Important message from Danone Canada

I just received this warning message in my email.

Oikos Unwrap to Play contest - Important message from Danone Canada

Dear contestant, 
Based on the findings of an investigation following irregular activity associated with the contest database Unwrap to Play from Oikos on December 8, 2014, Danone Canada conducted an independent and thorough cyber-forensics investigation which confirmed, on February 11, 2015, that a third-party has hacked the contest database hosted by an outsourced provider, which contains participants’ personal information such as:
  • Name,
  • Addresses,
  • Birth dates,
  • Email addresses,
  • Profile information (gender, number of children and yogurt preference), and
  • Password.
It did not include more sensitive or financial information such as:
  • Credit card numbers, 
  • Bank account numbers, 
  • Driver’s license numbers, or 
  • Social insurance numbers. 
This notification is to advise you of the situation and to encourage you to remain vigilant.
As Danone Canada is committed to the security of consumer’s personal information, we immediately addressed the situation: we tackled the security breach, reported the incident to the authorities and conducted an independent and thorough cyber-forensics investigation to understand the causes of the incident and hopefully avoid any similar situations in the future.
As preventive measure, we do recommend that you be alert for emails scams and marketing campaigns from unauthorized third parties that could reference your participation to the contest and may try to trick you to provide personal information. For information on how to avoid emails scams and protect your information online, you can type www.priv.gc.ca/resource/fs-fi/02_05_d_13_rev_01_e.asp into your web browser.
In addition, we encourage you to remain vigilant and to review and monitor your personal accounts for suspicious or unauthorized activity. If you have reason to believe that your information is being misused, you should report unusual activity to local law enforcement. For additional tips on how to combat ID theft and steps to take if you become a victim, you can type www.priv.gc.ca/resource/fs-fi/02_05_d_10_e.aspinto your web browser.
You should also change your password in other accounts as a preventive measure, if you use the same one as you did for the Oikos Unwrap to Play contest.
The investigation remains in progress and we are collaborating with local law enforcement. We have also notified the federal and provincial privacy commissioner’s offices so that they are aware of this incident and can assist you with any questions that you may have. You may also contact these privacy commissioner’s offices as follows:
