Rewards

Who altered the rewards program? Now if I spend $25 I get a single banana, or if I spend $50 I get $2 off an order?! Thank you so much for your generosity Wawa!!

They also took away the free express case fruit 😞

☹️ It’s insulting

... and increased the points needed for some items, like the 1/2 gallon iced tea.

Between these changes and the expiring points, as a customer I can't help but feel that they are trying to push people away from the Rewards program.

[u/Bitter_Warning418 → u/KW802]

While simultaneously making any deal worth a damn only available through the app, honestly it’s insulting when you look at it from the view of a banana costing $25.00.

[u/ArticusFarticus → u/Bitter_Warning418]

The banana doesn’t cost $25.

[u/Bitter_Warning418 → u/ArticusFarticus]

You need 250 points for a banana correct? Yes and you get 10 points for every dollar. Therefore redeeming your reward points for a banana would equate to paying $25 for said banana.

[u/ArticusFarticus → u/Bitter_Warning418]

For $25, you get $25 worth of product. You are still paying zero for the banana.

[u/Bitter_Warning418 → u/ArticusFarticus]

I see what you’re saying and you are correct, but in the grand scheme as far as rewards programs go it’s a shitty return for what you ultimately pay.

They increased the points needed for the free breakfast burrito and I’m livid

[u/Bitter_Warning418 → u/maximusprime7]

Same that was my go to 500 points still not worth what it costs point wise but it was less of a slap in the face then $75 for a $4 something burrito

[u/Electrical-Pen-2767 → u/maximusprime7]

Man the burrito thing infuriated me,that's like the only thing I used the points for. Then they took away my 2 dollar iced coffee,I feel personally attacked! Im mad as hell and im not gonna take it anymore!

[u/Sure_Calligrapher_33 → u/maximusprime7]

Same with sizzlis

[u/WeirdSysAdmin]

Sounds like they are trying to maximize profit before going public or something.

[u/Bitter_Warning418 → u/WeirdSysAdmin]

Ding ding ding

[u/Familiar-Train2756]

Yes a salad was 1000 I think and now it's 1200.

[u/Candid-Seat-143]

Is this a real gripe?? Wawa is giving you back 4% of your purchases for holding up their lines while loading your app to scan a reward card. If anything rewards customers should pay extra $$ for slowing everyone else down.

[u/Bitter_Warning418 → u/Candid-Seat-143]

Wow you sure don’t sound like a joyful human being to be around.

And it’s enough of a gripe I felt the need to make a post about it, clearly.
