Thunder Bay
Sobeys and Sobeys Urban Fresh are now listed on the airmiles website for megamiles
.
There are new offers this morning for BC from Safeway and Thrifty's for this weekend. Now it will be really easy lol
Also, I didn't get the BMO offer (I have received similar in the past) BUT I got a Shell offer good for 10 bonus AMs on every fill-up from May 7 to July 2. Maxed at 250 AM but that's more than the 40 they are offering during Megamiles. Do these stack, I wonder? (I.e. If I use the mega miles coupon will I get those 10 plus another 10 bonus from this offer?)
Yup it looks like this coupon can be "stacked"There are new offers this morning for BC from Safeway and Thrifty's for this weekend. Now it will be really easy lol

WOW! Sounds like both Rexall and Airmiles could benefit from customer service training as well as consistent information across their entire system. I know there is one Rexall in Toronto in the PATH that i won't even try to use coupons at -- sends the cashiers into full-out meltdown mode. There are a couple of cashiers at all 3 of our stores (yes small city and we have THREE stores) that i will wait for and some i avoid like the plaque -- one who refuses to let me know what my pre-tax total is "doesn't matter does it?"Doing a return to Rexall today, just tired of the airmiles customer service.
Went to use 60am wus $30 lgo, 12am wus $6 oral care lgo with survey coupon on Thursday (didn't use weekly printable coupon). 60am went through on receipt but didn't post, 12am lgo didn't go through and is still on the card.
Store says they no longer "give out" airmiles, Rexall head office says load and go system is airmiles so call airmiles but if doesn't workout get the store manager to add them or if that doesn't workout call Rexall head office back and they'll escalate the issue. With airmiles I spent 24 minutes on the phone to be told they will only add the miles through the online inquiry submission and I have to wait 120 days to submit it followed by 2 weeks for them to process it.
Bottom line: just easier to return the items. Hopefully lol.

I can understand your frustration with the system and when it comes to the LoadnGo i agree, not very user friendly or well supported

The Power of AM hunting!
Donald, you're the car rental using airmiles specialist. What do you do about the insurance when you book a car through Airmiles? If I book through Costco I have insurance covered when I use my Costco M/C. Also did you pay the taxes upfront or when you picked up the car. It looks like they want it when you pick it up now when you rent the car. Any other tips.
Now we are going for a week. Flights on AM, 3 day hotel stay on "Hotel" points includes breakfast, Universal tickets on AM, 4 day hotel stay courtesy of timeshare presentation. Car rental AM or Costco. All in, this trip (7 days) will be out of pocket cash less than $1000 Cdn (most of that is tax on the flights and meals).

Is his hotel program IHG or Choice? Or something else?Huge thank you to bababear_50 and Donald-my hero. Thanks to your question and reply last week I was able to save all kinds of Airmiles and get much better flight times. I would never have thought of booking one way trips to Orlando. When I checked Monday there was a good round trip option but when I went to book last night is was 1200 more Airmiles each person. I was able to book the one way trips, different stop-over on the way back for a lot less miles. The flight times worked out to be better in the end too. I now have a 3 hour stop-over in Toronto but that just means I can now use my Priority Pass before it runs out at the end of the year. Win-win all around. Thanks

I just planned another trip for late September. DH was on his "Hotel" loyalty account the other day and his balance was 0. He had 160,000 points last time he looked. He had allowed them to expire by not keeping the account active. I told him to call, so he did. They put the points back into his account this one time... asked if he would like to listen to a promotion they had going on... 3 nights/4 days $111US at one of their timeshares we just had to listen to their 2 hour presentation.
