Participation Terms
Only persons residing in the U.S. and who are 13 years of age or older and, subject to S&H's prior approval, organizations having their principal
office in the United States, may enroll in the S&H greenpoints program and become members. S&H's site is not directed to
or intended to be used by children under the age of thirteen.
S&H greenpoints membership is limited to one account per an individual or group.
S&H reserves the right at any time to limit S&H greenpoints enrollment.
Redemption of Greenpoints
Greenpoints may be spent only on rewards as offered through S&H
greenpoints and its partners at the time of redemption. At the time of redemption members will be asked to identify
themselves by presenting their membership card for in-store redemption, and
their password for on-line redemption. Members should limit access to their
membership number and password only to persons authorized by member to use
them.
Greenpoints may only be transferred between S&H greenpoints members, and
greenpoints gained outside of the program will not be redeemed by S&H.
Greenpoints will be subtracted from a member's account once the reward is requested.
S&H reserves the right to refuse refund of greenpoints to a member if merchandise is returned.
Newly enrolled members cannot transfer greenpoints from their account until a period of
30 days has elapsed and a purchase transaction is completed through an S&H participating merchant.
Although S&H uses great care in preparing its rewards catalogs, and in placing redemption offers on its
website, occasionally mistakes do occur. S&H is not responsible for typographical, photographic errors and/or
other errors or omissions its rewards catalogs or on its website. S&H reserves the
right to reject redemption orders in the event of an error. In the event a redemption item is out of
stock or discontinued, S&H reserves the right to either not replace the item and to refund the greenpoints
or to replace the item with one of equal or better value.
Transferability of Greenpoints
Greenpoints may not be transferred to non-S&H greenpoints
accounts and are void if transferred.
S&H greenpoints and/or rewards may never be bartered or sold. S&H greenpoints

matter, or otherwise by operation of law.
