Seriously, since I transferred one of my CIBC Aero Bizzes to the PetroPoints MC, I don't think I've paid for a car wash since, and that was months and months ago!

Granted, it wasn't that much...but that 250k points could have got me a decent short-haul. Instead of a lame $125 Petro gift card now. Or worse for other gc's.

go to Esso! You get way more value per $ spent, even comparing their non-promo period vs Petro's promo period.
The only one competitive with Esso is Shell's 10x AM events, but they charge 3 cents more for 91 than others now, so it basically cancels out the AM bonus

Do you remember when was the change? I was always under the impression it was 100 points per $1 spent cause I remember each each cent (or was it dime) made a difference to the "huge" balance number.
No wonder my earn rates for Petro-Points have been so slow the past few years. I just thought it was because I since started using Amex's and haven't charge much to the CIBC Petro Mastercard (used to our primary card).
That's like 0.0025% cash back now

Don't know if I can refer to any card such as the basic guaranteed ones.
