Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[osully]

Thanks all - my miles just posted from May 29 & June 2 trips to Sobeys. Phew!

 

[osully]

My Metro this week has Coke 500ml at $1.99 + 5 AM when you buy 2. I will be getting that as well as some Netflix gift cards.

Sobeys has the following that I will be picking up:

• Krinos crumbled feta for $3.99 + 10 AM when you buy 1
• Butterball turkey bacon or turkey hot dogs $3.99 + 20 AM when you buy 2
• Mini cheese croissants $3.99 + 5 AM when you buy 1
• Johnsonville sausage $3.99 (no listed deal but the past few weeks I've been getting the 8 AM when you buy 1 offer in MyOffers)
• Herbal Essences Bio Renew shampoo and conditioner $7.49 ea + 20 AM when you buy 1 (I've been wanting to try this and there is a printable coupon on save.ca for $2.50 off 2 - so for $12.48 for both this will give me 40 AM)

If I do just one of each item or min to get the AM, Sobeys spend is $32.48 for 83 AM. If I get the offer in MyOffers for 15 AM when spend $50 I will adjust these qty to do so

Last week I was so close to spending $50 but was walking home from the store after work and didn't want to carry a lot.

You can always tell when we've had Blue Friday out west, the Sobey's airmails offers are pretty meagre this weekend.

Us too .... but of course it will finally be warm, the A/C in our car only works if it's under 22, the Foodland that will actually carry most of those products is an hour away! That said, I'm game for stuffing the cooler with ice packs and heading out to snag those!!!

If anyone has any plans that include hotels over the summer this might be of interest. I'm in the middle of planning a road trip throughout SW Ontario so we'll be using this offer!

I'm on that website right now and I don't see that offer anywhere. How did you find it?

Went part way thru a dummy booking and the place I chose would only net me 60 AM. Also $20 CDN more expensive booking thru Travel Hub than with the hotel website directly.

I got it thru an email ...but just now did a little digging and even when not signed in i get this page
Book a hotel by June 30th earn up to 500 bonus miles

There are time when the direct booking IS cheaper but if it's for a chain i don't earn other loyalty points i can late exchange for a free stay OR for a non-chain hotel I'm willing to book this way. One that I'm currently thinking on is Benmiller Inn & Spa in Goderich and the rates are exactly the same as their own website so I'm probably gonna book thru the Airmiles Hub and earn 320 miles!

Wow this hotel deal is perfect timing. Husband and I just decided to take a trip to Toronto during JFL in September.

 

[DizzyDis]

So my child pass just arrived - crazy fast turn-around on that! I was also digging around on the travelhub site and seeing what would work out. We are debating a night or 2 in Montreal, so seeing if I can get a good deal. So far, found one that looks decent for $160/night, and I would get 700 AM for a 2-night stay. Now to decide if I want to spend 2 nights in a hotel with my children...

Did your AM from your gas purchase show up on your receipt? My DH went this evening, he swiped my card and the receipt only shows 1AM. He put $38 worth of gas in so we should have received at least 35AM. The fine print on the offer says something about waiting until the promotion is over.

Yes, my AM show on my receipt as follows:
Total Air Miles received this visit: 73
*60 Bonus Miles - Go Your Way Offer*
*2 Air Miles - In Store Purchase*
*10 Bonus Air Miles - Car Wash*
$2.41 fuel savings - Ultimate CW offer

Thanks for the link - it works. Just out of curiosity, I tried again and went to travelhub.airmiles.ca and nothing pops up for me, just gives me the option to put in dates for a hotel search.

That's interesting. I looked at my AM account yesterday and there was a line item from Shell "Text To Choose Your Offer" that showed up with 66AM. I think this must be the June 2-15 gas offer but I thought it was capped at 60AM? I can't figure out what Shell is doing! All AM are good ones though.

Thanks. I am booked at a Disney Springs hotel for Labour Day weekend (Best Western). Could get 1050 airmiles if I rebook through airmiles, but it works out to $100 more plus parking than my Mousesavers rate. Was worth checking though .

I was at Rexall and redeemed 285 Airmiles, but I did not get the bonus 100 Airmiles. The manager was going to look into it. I hate tracking down AM's that don't post properly.

Did you meet BOTH of the requirements though? You had to spend a total of $50.00 and redeem cash miles for only $30.00 of that total. I was just coming in to remind people of this promotion

Thanks for the cooler idea Jacqueline,I found two soft sided ones my sons frequently use for "beverages" and headed out,,I was pleasantly surprised that my Foodland had everything and a few bonuses. I was able to get chicken strips and boneless skinless chicken breasts in the deal also.
My traveling time is about 20-30 minutes depending on traffic and everything stayed frozen.
I nabbed an extra 25 points on a box of chicken strips as it was a targeted offer they had sent me.
I wish I had a bigger freezer ,,,although my brother's condo is sitting empty with an active freezer. Hmmmmmmm
Hope your trip to Foodland goes well.
Hugs Mel

Don't worry, last time I redeemed AM Cash the bonus AM came through automatically. I just looked them up I redeemed on May 5th (Metro promotion) and they were posted to my AM account on May 18th. Forgot about the second condition in this promotion. I was typing this as the duck was posting hers.

Thanks to those who posted their Foodland/Sobeys shopping items, I just returned from a productive trip spent $100 got 300AM. The freezer is now full.

Does anyone have a spend $X get Y AM for next week in their Load and Go for Rexall yet. I just had a look at mine and I don't see one yet. I suppose they may add it on Monday but I think I've always been able to see it on Friday.
