Michael's Reward Program shows no real Customer Appreciation at all

Michael's offers all kinds of discounts, awards, birthday presents, credits, etc. but most of them are probably not used by customers because the 4 point fine print on their rewards program requires a lawyer's assistance to interpret. You fill up with your cart with the items you need and sometime later you may or may not receive a notice that you have to hurry up and use the reward or it will expire. Decent corpses like Costco are transparent about their rewards and they really do offer their customers appreciation for their loyalty. Michael's is very opaque and sneaky and their rewards are more like retail bait than any sort of actual appreciation for their customers.
