Regular op-shoppers can now get mates’ rates on their bargain buys thanks to a new loyalty card program launching next month.
The ‘Mission Mates’ card lets customers earn reward points every time they shop at one of the 12 Sacred Heart Mission op-shops across Melbourne.
From March 10, loyalty program members will get a $10 voucher for every 200 points they earn, as well as exclusive invites to sale and store events, grand openings and VIP nights and a 10 per cent discount on their birthday.
Sacred Heart Mission op-shops spokeswoman Samantha Arthur said the program was set up to reward long-time customers and donors who “buy sustainably and give to others”.
To celebrate the launch of the card, members will get double points on all purchases in March, as well as access to designer sale events at all stores throughout the month.
“For the past few busy summer-holiday months, all of our stores have been squirrelling away their finest designer and vintage finds,” Ms Arthur said.
“We’ve never hosted this many events, let alone all in one month but the stores wanted to help reward as many customers as they could to encourage the op-shop community to sign up so we can share the rewards.
Ms Arthur said events would be held at each store to give avid op-shoppers a chance to visit their favourite store.
“We know op-shoppers are passionate about which stores they frequently visit, so we’ve spread the events across all our 12 stores,” she said.
“Our op-shop events are very popular with customers who love fashion sales so we can’t wait to host an Autumn/Winter fashion launch in every store this March.”

The op-shops raise more than 30 per cent of the money Sacred Heart Mission needs to help people experiencing homelessness and disadvantage.
