Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[damo]

So frustrated!
I went to Rexall, had loaded my Load and Go and had the coupon, but the Load and Go did not show up! Tried the chat and they wont add the miles, I have to wait the 120 days
I did do the quiz and they tried to say I had to wait for that and I said, no way!
So frustrated.

Did your personal air miles account total show up? Sometimes the load and go and your account total don't show up on the receipt but will show up tomorrow. Also check your load and go to see if it is still there. If it is gone, it should show up on the account tomorrow.

Lowes has the regular led lightbulbs for the save on energy promo this month with 5 am on their 5 pack. Not much but if you are buying anyway, it's the same price as everywhere else.

That reminds me. I need to find 3 tri-light LED bulbs now that it's October. Thanks Days in the Sun!

Grr... I thought I hit the jackpot. I checked out Lowe's first and they had GE tri-lights on clearance for $6.99!!!! But I couldn't seem to get them added to my cart. Kept saying things like "there's not enough at your store location". What? So I phoned their 800 # only to discover that Lowe's does not ship *everything* on their website. For these, I would have to drive out to the store locations and of course that means 1 store in Toronto.

I've ordered stuff from Lowe's for the past 4 years! I never heard of this before.

Did my Blue Friday shop today (I'm in Manitoba). Didn't go too crazy, but ended up with 236 AM on a $45 shop.

Thanks again to all who post on here. I didn't see the Blue Friday promo in the flyer until @cari12 and @kerreyn made mention of it in the comments. I'm gonna try the Cavendish fries and buy another bunch of four tonight if we like them.

Also wanted to mention I got the BMO World Elite Air Miles card thanks to a post by @Donald - my hero. With the bonuses, I'll make Onyx before the end of the year. Also looking forward to the free companion flight. I really appreciate this board!

Quick Blue Friday question - if you buy 2 sets of an item, will you get 2x the Blue Friday airmiles for that item?

Good afternoon, and Happy Thanksgiving weekend. I ordered the Halifax Theatre tickets for my daughter (Christmas or December birthday gift, I was thinking) and received the voucher today. It says photo ID is necessary to collect the tickets? Has anyone experienced that before? I don't think my Cineplex tickets said that ID would be required. I'm disappointed....not for the loss of an AM, but for the loss of what I thought would be a fun night for DD and her boyfriend.

I think my Volta tickets in the summer said the same thing. No one at the gate checked anything. When you ordered them there was likely an option to send them to another address (this is so you can gift them to someone else).

I wouldn't worry about it, it's like the Rexall one coupon per transaction thing (everyone ignores it).

Thanks! I'll send it to her early, and maybe the photo ID was for the drinks.

Unless there's a specified quantity per person, then yes, you can double up on the items for double the air miles. This is going to make our two dogs very happy. =)

I remember reading in the terms and conditions that you go online and register with a lead name. Don't need all the names just the lead name. I didn't print out or save the terms and conditions. Perhaps someone can provide them.

Another AMEX Air Miles offer via e-mail:

"Between October 6 - October 31, 2017, each time you spend $100 in purchases (after taxes, in a single purchase or cumulative purchases) using your eligible American Express AIR MILES Card ending in ___, you will get 100 Miles - up to a total of 500 Bonus Miles for up to $500 in purchases. That is on top of the Miles you already earn using your American Express Air Miles Card!" Ohh and "no enrollment is required for this offer so you don't need to do anything except use your eligible Card to spend for your opportunity to earn up to 500 Bonus Miles!"

Then it breaks it down into 2 columns. Total Spending During Offer Period (in a single purchase or cumulative purchases) AND Total Bonus Miles.

$100 - $199.99 = 100 miles
$200 - $299.99 = 200 miles
$300 - $399.99 = 300 miles
$400 - $499.99 = 400 miles
$500.00 or more = 500 miles

THIS IS JUST LIKE THE OFFER I RECEIVED IN AUGUST THAT TURNED OUT NO ONE ELSE KNEW ABOUT. I hope others get the e-mail this time.

EDITED TO ADD: I was re-reading the e-mail to add the information to my AM tracking spreadsheet and realized it says it's part of their AMEX Soar into More program.

Interesting.....I'm trying to not spend money(beyond absolute necessities) for the next 2 months because sending the kid off to uni has cost me a lot of money. However, I'm sure I could find a way to use my Amex to cover the absolute necessities.

Wondering if that August version of this offer also did not require enrollment? Also, what was the sender/subject line looking like for this email?

 

[dancin Disney style]

Oh....forgot to mention that the next SIM offer is showing as coming soon. Another spend $400 get 800 miles.

Does anyone remember the initial info on these offers said that there would be several offers totalling 2000 miles? Pretty sure we have now gone beyond that with the October offer making it 2200.

I haven't purchased the Sobey's $150 gift cards for 150 air miles yet, so those will cover this offer of $500 = 500 air miles.

The sender is American Express and the subject line says "DANIELLE, you could earn up to 500 AIR MILES Bonus Miles.

Edited to add: I checked my August e-mail and my card did not require enrollement for that offer either.

I remember that initial email also, and was just thinking the same the other day! No complaining over here though, keep those Amex offers coming!

Great trip to Sobeys Barrhaven!

They have signs everywhere showing you cannot buy a gift card with a gift card, FYI.

Trip 1 - bought my gift card. 150AM.

Trip 2 - groceries. Used a bunch of MyOffers as well as about 7 of those print out Sobeys AM bonus coupons that were online about a month ago. Got bonus miles doubled up on a few items Anyways I made sure with th cashier that they all showed up (they did not last time) and got just over 150AM for only $78 spent off my gift card.

Not bad

 

[osully]

Also saw there is a limit of 5 gift cards per person. Guessing they track that by AM card # used. So if you planned to just stock up forever looks like that won’t work.

Spent $128 and got 646 AM. I think I should get another 25 from a targeted coupon that isn't showing up on receipt but I've seen them show up later on the AM site. Plus, I used my American Express so met my $100 spend for the 400 bonus AM!

I didn't get one of new American Express emails though - Is that for everyone or just targeted for certain card holders?
