New Big Lots Rewards Program: Earn $5 Off $15 Reward w/ Every 3 Purchases & More
Big Lots Shoppers!
Head here to check out the newly released Big Lots Big Rewards program! Buzz Club Rewards members will now earn a $5 off $15 reward for every three qualifying purchases made within a 12 month period. Qualifying purchases include in-store and online purchase transactions excluding gift cards, rentals, price holds, or donations. You can earn one purchase per day and per store and a limit of one $5 reward per week. Rewards are sent to the email address on file and are valid for 17 days.
Since you can earn $5 a week, you could potentially earn $260 in rewards per year. And since there is no minimum qualifying purchase amount, make three $1 transactions per week and earn a $5 reward!
Earn even more on furniture purchases!
Earn a $10 reward for every $200 spent on a single qualifying furniture purchase – up to a $50 reward. Furniture qualifying purchases include indoor furniture, patio furniture, gazebos and umbrellas.
How to redeem rewards:
Redeem your rewards in-store or online at BigLots.com on any item except price holds, rentals, deposits, charitable donations, milk, dairy products, eggs, and gift cards. You can redeem multiple rewards in one transaction and even use other storewide coupons as well AND purchases made with rewards still count towards a qualifying purchase to earn more rewards!
More benefits of Big Rewards!
- Enjoy 20% off savings during member-only Friends & Family VIP shopping days.
- Receive frequent money savings coupons.
- Get a secret birthday surprise emailed to you on your birthday!
(Thanks, Lisa!)


Their prices are already great, this is sooo cool.
Awesome!
Is it 5 off 15? Looks like it
Thanks so much for the heads up! I am finding that detail now as well! Just updated the post!
When you first sign up for Buzz Rewards, you get a $5 off $15 coupon. I got the same thing when I signed up last fall. Is that what you’re looking at, disneya & Collin? I don’t see anything in these details that indicates the $5 coupons earned going forward will be for $15 purchases. Am I missing something?
Thanks! Just signed up. I contacted them to find out how I get a card so I can scan when I’m in store. All I have now is my account number through the signing up process.
You’re welcome Donna!
When I forget my card they look up phone number / name. Easy peasy 🙂
Just take a picture of your card on your phone and you’ll always have it with you They can scan it that way as well
I was able to print off a card from the site after signing up. There was an area named “Buzz Club Rewards”. I clicked in there and a card image with bar code was accessible.
I just signed up. How can I get a card that I can scan when I am in store.
I only have my account number through the signing up process. Thanks for your
help.
This is amazing! I love Big Lots and was just wishing recently that Buzz Rewards had more offers (like, ever). I’m so going to be using this.
Thanks for the heads-up, Hip2Save!!
You’re welcome Sheri!
july 8th and 9th is 20% off
Yes! It’s their Friends and Family Event 20% off EVERYTHING in store except dairy products which are not included.
I signed up for this when it started the first time, I’m pretty sure I’ve never used it even when I shop there which is not too often since they moved into the “mall” frontage it’s not the same. And the next closest ones are hour away
“3 qualifying purchases”. Is there a minimum amount (of $) for the purchase to qualify?
Here are the details they list on what qualifies “Qualifying Purchase includes in store and online purchase transactions and does not include purchase of gift cards, rentals, price holds, or donations. Members may earn one purchase, per day, per store. Redemption restrictions may apply.” Hope that helps!
My family has been loyal Big Lots shoppers for years. We buy almost all of our snack foods and paper goods there. They already have good prices, and good coupons and sales. Taking advantage of this – “And since there is no minimum qualifying purchase amount, make three $1 transactions per week and earn a $5 reward!” – is only going to make them either change the program, once again, or stop the program all together. This is an improvement to the program, lets not make them regret their decision to change it.
I can’t even get an e-mail from them….which they say they send out.
Same with me. I get no emails!
Same here been a member from the start years ago have talked to several sales associates and corporate nothing has ever changed now I can’t even get login to see my rewards as I could before.why so many names for the rewards program????
My dad got me shopping at big lots. He goes there every few weeks and buys a big cart load full Lol. He loves it!! I go there every few months and I always take advantage of the 20% off when they offer it. Find some neat stuff there. I’m excited about this program change 🙂 .
The new reward program is not $5.00 off $15.00, it is $5.00 off any amount.
I thought it was $5 off, but I “earned” my first “reward” and it says my reward IS a $5 off $15 coupon…I’m not sure what I’m missing. I was HOPING it was just the $5 off, but I guess that was too good to be true.
If anyone else was confused like I was, I just got this confirmation from customer service:
“The reward you receive for every three purchases is a $5 off $15 or $15 off $75 coupon.”
The information on the website is MISLEADING–even the FAQ doesn’t spell out exactly what the reward is.
After my initial reward, I’ve gotten 2 since. it’s $5 off your purchase. This last one, I bought 2 cartons of coconut water for $6 total. Presented my reward coupon, and I only had to pay $1.
You have to spend 15$ to get the 5$ off
not anymore
shopped big lots several times and never received any rewards.
After you shop there three times in one week you will receive a 5$ reward
I purchased a sound bar at big lots in November this year I don’t have the receipt it under warranty for year can I get something else for that price.

You can take it back to the front desk and they should change it for you for equal value. But make sure you keep the receipt when you get the new one.
I purchased a table set at a good price I am very satisfied.
I have always been satisfied with BigLots merchendise. My 2 recliners are the best. LOVE THEM.
went to a BL. didn’t think I had a rewards card. Daughter said she thinks I do. How do I find out and can I turn in purchases from that day after the fact?
I have been a customer with big lots for YEARS with the rewards card but have Not received any emails or discounts . You cannot be reached by phone.
Please check why I have not received any discounts
Thanks
Oh bummer! Sorry to hear about that. Be sure to click through the link above and head to the bottom of the page where you can click on “contact us”. There you will be able to grab their number Or begin speaking to a representative via online chat. Hope that helps!
For the furniture bonuses, to redeem that reward, is there a minimum amount? For example, I spent of $1000 today and it says up to $50 in furniture rewards. Is there a minimum amount that needs to be spent in order to redeem that $50 or is it like a $50 gift certificate?
Store 4544 La Rece was my cashier, she had good customer service ethics. Praise her for a job well done!!

How do I activate my card? I misplaced it for awhile but now have found it. Is it too late to activate??(approx. 6 months ago.)

I Love shopping at Big ts
Love my Big Lots store in Berlin Ct. Just started shopping there and now that I ‘ve had the experience of shopping and noticing the pricing….theres no stopping me now. I’m getting my shop on!!!
LOVE my big lots sale on bottled water! 2- 24 pk water for 5 dollars!! GOOD savings! I stocked up with 10 cases !! Thanks Big Lot!!
Great score!
I like your stores your stores but the one in my area closed
and I have to go 10 miles to get to one
I have signed up and I get no rewards at all. I even signed up my husband under his email and he doesn’t get anything either. I have been to several different Big Lots and not one person can help me out as to the issue. The emails aren’t going to my junk folder either. I just don’t get them. I understand maybe a glitch, but no one cares enough at any store to even help me out.
Hmm, I did find this in the details –
“Can I access my rewards any other way?
Yes, you can log onto your account HERE and check to see if you have any offers available.”
You could also try calling customer service to see if they may be able to look into it for you. – 1-866-BIG-LOTS (244-5687)
Hoping that helps!
I would like to have email notifications for your Friends & Family sales. Also coupons & sales for seniors. Thank you
I’m a little confused as to how long it takes to go from pending status to get your reward it seems to take an awfully long time and maybe that’s just me. I do enjoy shopping there and drugs are refined things I need
BigLots have goods with good price.
They have fantastic prices although u must check the dates on items some of them are already expired so it pays to check. Before they always ask do you have rewards with us and if so would ask for your phone number and look it up. They could care less n just ring you up so i spent $90.00 and lost the reward point. They should be more helpful with customers n not be so lazy they should ask everyone and offer rewards or do you have rewards for each and every customer, Its like who care u did your shopping andOur sales help keep the employees working so they need to step up to their job and make sure the person buying has rewards or not. That really piss me and upset me I lost my points for my sales. They are to quick to ring up without asking what the hell.
I purchased $1200 in furniture over the weekend and I can see the transaction listed when I login but it doesn’t show that I have any rewards or offers and it should be $50 because of the furniture bonus, right? I don’t fully understand.
Im not really sure if I got my card accesses and where do I put in my birthday. Oh good grief I really feel dum here s my birthday 08 06 65 .. wish some one could help me get started… Huh.
Hi there! Here is what they list on how to add your Birth Date to your Rewards account – When logged in to your account “click on “Edit Profile”, and provide your birth month and day. Unfortunately, we can’t accept birthday information at checkout.”
Hope that helps!
I never get any rewards from you. I have been a member for a long time. I just bought a kitchen cart and was told I was elegable for a $10 rebate. I don’t beleive it.
Can’t find phone # to register for have my 5.00 card but need to sign up
I just left big lots. I have a card, an orange reward card. The lady at the store said I was signed up on line. How do I put my orange in getting card numbers on my account.
Biglots has always been a great store and low on there prices and sales
I’m very disturb because I haven’t receive my $5 coupons. I stop bigs lots . Just about every day. ???
Same here been a member from the start years ago have talked to several sales associates and corporate nothing has ever changed now I can’t even get login to see my rewards as I could before.why so many names for the rewards program????
acess my acount to find out what i do next do i have any rewards?
subscribe to deals and coupons
yesterday was my first trip to Big Lots. was impresssed that i have one so close to my home!
You have so many items that I need.Makes my shopping less stressful.
I signed up for this year’s ago and I’ve never gotten a thing. They always ask if I am a member and I say yes. They scan my tag but I never get any rewards.
I get emails. I placed an online order on Friday for store pick-up. I made a purchase in-store on Saturday when I picked up and they counted them as 2 purchases at the same store in one day (equals one purchase). I emailed them and was told that you aren’t charged for a purchase until you pick up. Seems misleading to me and certainly cuts down on the number of rewards they give. They give credit for separate trips to separate stores on separate days or separate shipping costs.
The new look at Big Lot is every nice & it makes the the store looks bigger . And really clean too, keep up the the good work.
I’ve received my first reward which expires in a couple of weeks. I’m not sure I shop here enough for this program to be worth it.
