Which MICAS offer should I use?
MICAS offers a straightforward first order discount with the featured code taking 15% off when you shop via the MICAS app. This headline offer is best for new app users placing their first order, especially if you are buying a few items. In this block we also note the sale that prices many items under C$56 and the option to sign up to the newsletter for special offers, but neither of those is the hero at the top of the page.
Small baskets and first orders (up to about CA$60). If you are ordering a handful of items for your first app order, the 15% off code takes a straightforward bite out the total. For example, on a CA$40 order, you pay CA$34 after the app code, saving CA$6. If you were to spend CA$60, you would pay CA$51, saving CA$9. The alternatives, such as the Everything Under C$56 deal, do not add an extra discount on these totals, and the newsletter signup wouldn’t lower the price at checkout for your first order. Apply the code only if you are using the app and it is your first order.
Moderate baskets (around CA$60 to CA$100). The 15% first app order discount remains the strongest open option if you are making your first order. For a CA$80 basket, the app code would reduce the price to CA$68, a saving of CA$12. The Everything Under C$56 option is limited to items priced under CA$56 and is not a direct total discount for larger baskets, so it wouldn’t reduce an CA$80 order unless every item qualifies under the price cap. The newsletter signup stays on the page for new customers, but it does not lower your price at checkout unless you are using it as part of a separate sign up flow.
Larger baskets (CA$120 and up). For larger baskets, the hero app code is still the primary route to savings for a first order. On a CA$120 order, applying the app code would bring the total to CA$102, saving CA$18. The Everything Under CA$56 offer may apply to items individually priced under CA$56 but does not combine with the 15% off first order discount. If you are buying sale items, the paper trail of discounts can get complex, and in most cases the code still provides the cleaner price path for a first-time customer.
Examples
- On a CA$40 order, code discount 15% off subtotal gives final CA$34; saving CA$6.
- Original price: CA$40; discounts: 15% (percent); final price: CA$34; saving: CA$6.
- On a CA$60 order, code discount 15% off subtotal gives final CA$51; saving CA$9.
- Original price: CA$60; discounts: 15% (percent); final price: CA$51; saving: CA$9.
- On a CA$120 order, code discount 15% off subtotal gives final CA$102; saving CA$18.
- Original price: CA$120; discounts: 15% (percent); final price: CA$102; saving: CA$18.
To choose between the offers that apply to your basket, calculate the final price under each eligible option and pick the lower total. The app code cannot be stacked with other offers, and the Everything Under CA$56 deal does not automatically reduce a normal first order total beyond the price points where it applies. If your items include pieces priced under CA$56, you could still opt to browse those, but for the typical first order, the 15% off via the app is the clearer path.
