Buggy

Buggy to say the least nothing works absolutely nothing

There is no scan in my version.

There is no scan option on my version of the app. I’m logged in.

Can’t Enter Codes

Every time I log in to my account on either website or app, it lets me select my store and then the button to enter/play is now gone. It worked perfectly fine before but I haven’t been able to enter anything because the button to enter codes doesn’t appear anymore. Very frustrating.

Token Sweepstakes are Very Unclear

I spent money and hours and it didn’t seem worth it. The “TOKEN SWEEPSTAKES” was very unclear and I still don’t know how I would have redeemed any of these tokens. The rules aren’t clear and it all seemed like a waste. Shame

No scan button

There’s a history button, and a message that I haven’t entered any codes, and no way to scan codes.

Horrible and a scam

I put down at least over 50 chances to win one prize, I got a notification saying I won but as soon as I went back into the app it logged me out and I wasn’t able to get back in again. I tried to login again and again and it wouldn’t work

Feelings about Monopoly Game

I prefer the old game; the in putting of information did not work for me. I’d get to the cashier and couldn’t pull up my entrees.
( so disappointing)☺️
I’m a wise old owl; I like shopping at the Acme. Some changes are not always necessary....
Is my opinion.

Rewards get worse every year, and too time consuming

Stop getting rid of the virtual visa gift cards! They also made it harder to get grocery gift cards, and by the time I was getting close to a 25 dollar one, they were all taken, and I had nothing I actually wanted to spend my tokens on. AND the app is still a pain to use, plus there’s no actual prizes to be won this year, like a dream house or a million dollars.

A big time waster with very little reward

Past year’s games were fun and relatively quick to play. Not this year, it takes forever with multiple steps to enter the codes. A big time waster and the prizes were not that great either.

Worst game ever

The app worked fine, but what a goddamn waste of time. Even the products I “won”, I can’t redeem because my local store hasn’t had them in stock all month. This customer appreciation game is more like a “we hate our customers and want them to suffer” game.

Not as good as previous years

I was not at all impressed with this digital system. Bring back the board

0 stars

Wish I could give this app 0 stars. I can’t even create a log in to scan the 500 barcodes I have . My toddler can create a better app. Waste of time and money at acme

Terrible execution this year

I have so many coupons that loaded to my account, but not all of them are reflecting on my J4U account. They also don’t clear off of the list after purchased, so I can’t tell how many of each items I have left. I shouldn’t have to keep track of them myself. You guys had a year to figure out how to execute this properly so there really should be bo excuses. It would be way more helpful to just turn in the coupons like all the other years.

Where’s the Monopoly?

Scanning tickets feature works better than in 2020 but the coupons and prizes and USELESS. seriously not worth the time it takes to open scan and click through the ‘pick 3’ and then chance cards. Come on. Full digital game is one thing, but when I first heard that from the cashier thought it meant your game board would be in the app. I’ll pass like everyone else next time I see monopoly back.

Stupid as _____!

Not worth the time and energy I spent opening the tickets, scanning the codes, playing the dumb match game, or redeeming the tokens. Wow, after 3 hours of this, I won 2 tubs of sour cream, a loaf of French bread, and a few bottles of water that I have to pay crv on. Thx a bunch.

Time consuming promo, not user friendly app

When I first started using this, there was an option to scan the codes. This worked for me, so much easier than typing in each code. However that feature disappeared before I could get to the stack I had left of codes to “play”. While you don’t have to enter the dashes in the code, you do have to click on the box rather than have it set to automatically put your cursor in the right place—a pain if you have a big pile of these (which I did since the cashier gave me her entire stash at once the last week, she said it made the drawer too heavy...). The customer service contact link also disappeared before the end of the promo. The coupons you get are supposed to be loaded to your account, but there is no way to verify by looking at your account—you just have to purchase and hope the coupon is there. This also means the only way to track what coupons you have left are to go to this site/app, separate from the store site/app, and scroll through the list (in reverse order of entry, not by category or what hasn’t been redeemed yet). Then the tokens can be redeemed if you don’t guess the pattern correctly on the “game board” to win free grocery items or $1, 2, 5 rewards. If you want to spend your tokens on the charity listed, you have to do it one token (=1 penny) at a time. Overall, a lot of work for some coupons, perhaps a few free grocery items (if you happen to want those specific things), and a rare actual prize (like a Shutterfly book you have only a couple of weeks to put together before it expires), redbox DVDs, and even rarer bigger items.

5/18/21: USELESS Apple Crap App.

1. As our former president would say, “It’s rigged and pretty much everyone know s it.”
2. Extremely poor functionality. Scan feature seldom works, try calling the useless/helpless app support! It goes nowhere.
3. I CANNOT R.e.s.p.e.c.t a company that doesn’t respect my valuable time.
4. I can finally let go of EVER shopping at way over priced SW again.
5. App was changed because people actually won. Delete…Deleted…and Delete!

Whew that was easy!!

WTH? App scan didn't work

After NUMEROUS attempts to scan - all but two FAILED - what a waste of time. Terrible consumer promotion - time intensive.

Yo hard to crest account

I’ve tryed multiple times to create an account because I have hundreds of winning tickets but it keeps saying there is any error and to try again it NEVER WORKS I have tried at least 50 times and it keeps saying the same thing so in the process I’ve lost time AND money please fix this app.
