A minimum of $1 (inclusive of GST) must be spent in a single transaction to qualify for the earning of a reward point.
3. When you accrue a total of 200 points you will be entitled to a discount of $10 on any 1 future transaction at any participating Soul Pattinson Chemist store (excluding any amounts payable for excluded goods).
