Default Re: Smith's Food & Drug FAQ's

What are the rewards programs offered by Smith's?

The rewards card offers the "new rewards" while the Fresh Values Card offers the "old incentive programs". Both are listed here.

It's our way for saying thank you for shopping at Smith's.

A car salesman once accused my dad of inventing copper wire because he knows how to s-t-r-e-t-c-h a penny.
