Shoppers Drug Mart offers AirPods Pro with $100 gift card for Black Friday

Shoppers Drug Mart is getting ready for Black Friday with a few choice tech deals. However, the store’s deals start on Saturday, November 19th and continue through Sunday, so you can’t capitalize on them just yet.

The best deals include a 65-inch 4K TV starting at $499 and first-generation AirPods Pros being discounted to $279. To sweeten the deal, both items also come with a $100 Shoppers gift card.

Following that, the Xbox Series X is dropping down to $319 and comes with a $25 gift card. The 2nd generation AirPods are priced at $179 and come with a $75 gift card.

Other deals include discounts on Xbox Series X/S controllers ($59) and the new PlayStation DualSense controller ($64).

The “wait, there’s more” moment of this deal hasn’t happened yet, but savvy shoppers in the Red Flag Deals forums are predicting a bonus deal in the PC Optimum app. Ideally, it will net people another 20,000 points or so for spending over $75. That said, we won’t know if this is true until the weekend when the personalized offers are reported to arrive.

Last year on Black Friday, the brand also ran a bonus redemption event that offered nice discounts to people looking to buy items with points as well. It’s unclear if this will return in 2022.

Instacart prioritizes its shoppers in new update

Grocery delivery app Instacart is making it easier for shoppers to complete orders through new features and an updated customer ratings system.

Shoppers will be able to complete “batches,” the company’s term for customer orders, by maintaining a customer average of 4.7 stars or above. Instacart previously prioritized batches based on the highest rating possible.

Instacart will also remove ratings from customers who consistently rate shoppers below five stars.

“Our reimagined ratings system was developed in close collaboration with the shopper community to better support their needs,” John Adams, vice president of shopper and fulfillment product at Instacart, said.

The company also introduced a new “your stats” feature on the app for shoppers that shows them various figures, including average customer ratings and feedback.

The company will also collect shoppers’ experiences after each batch they complete, where they can share potential issues with a customer and if they would not like to be paired with them for future orders.

“By delivering on shopper feedback to make the customer ratings system even more fair, accurate, and reliable, we’re taking another step in ensuring that shoppers feel heard and supported through their experience,” Adams said.
