If you get to lvl 3-4 its phenominal but even at lvl 2 (which is the vast majority of cardholders are) you get free shipping (even to Canada) and other perks as well.

Most stores here put up Christmas decorations as soon as they take down the Hallowe'en ones, so we have a full 2 months of holiday decorations. On the other hand, a lot of stores hold off a couple extra weeks and start decorating halfway through November. Best of all, the huge majority doesn't put on Christmas music until December 1st.
