Save-Always Stores started a customer loyalty program at the beginning of 2020 in which customers making cash purchases of gasoline at Save-Always Gas Bars are issued rewards in the form of grocery coupons. For each litre of gasoline purchased, the customer gets a grocery coupon for 3.00 cents that can be redeemed in Save-Always Food Stores. The coupons have no expiry date. Save-Always Stores began selling gift cards in 2021 that do not have expiry dates. The following are selected transactions in 2020 and 2021:

1.		In 2020, the Gas Bars sold 3.20 million litres of gasoline resulting in gas sales of $3,840,000. Grocery coupons were issued with these sales. The expected redemption rate for the grocery coupons is 68%.
2.		In 2020, customers redeemed $52,000 of the grocery coupons in the Food Stores.
3.		In 2021, the Gas Bars sold 5.85 million litres of gasoline resulting in gas sales of $7,605,000. Grocery coupons were issued with these sales. The expected redemption rate for the grocery coupons is 86%.
4.		In 2021, customers redeemed $56,500 of the grocery coupons in the Food Stores.
