Today is an EXCELLENT day in the Airmiles hunt for the duck --- here's the end result of my most recent on-line chat session!!! As well as our AMEX bill posting!
Exciting times for you!
Anything I can do to help you with that? Feel free to PM.You have no idea how exciting this is ... WAY off topic here but, hubby has his own business and his webpage was being hosted off a site that was in the States (no idea why ...) and we discovered 3 weeks ago that the server had been hacked so was down. GREAT ... SO his hosting company pulled it back onto a server in Canada somewhere but that took another full week meaning his only source of advertising for the courses he teaches was off-line for 2 weeks. Fast forward to this past Monday when he discovered that it was still sitting in Testing mode so while he could see it NO ONE ELSE COULD! Yup, he was down, dead in the water for a full 3 weeks. Had to cancel all of his August classes and currently September ain't looking real pretty either! So I've spent the last 3 days using every device, browser & search engine to pull his site back to the top of the first page instead of being lost on page THREE
Ah, Mel, I'm so sorry that you are still not feeling well. I know how horrible it can be to take a sick day early in the school year, but it will be fine. My yearly hearing test was always the third week in September. To be honest, having a half day to myself was heaven (especially since I always made the appointment for 9, out by 9:30, and didn't need to be back to school until after noon. They asked what you needed and you told them. Nothing wrong with that. They should be grateful that you had the idea....and lots of classrooms are using the balls as chairs, so not sure what the H/S issue should be.O/T,,,long rant
On top of my sciatic pain,they found a large cyst in the right leg which recently ruptured.
(I could have told them that it ruptured,,, as the pain is like giving birth).
They will monitor it to make sure it dissipates and does not fill again.
My MRI showed nerve compression causing sciatic pain,,she spoke of the potential of spinal stenosis --I've been referred to Neurologist,,my appt. is second day of my first week back to work which means taking a sick day.
I spent the better part of the day getting forms filled out for work,,I want to go back in Sept but it looks like I may have to go on modified days. I am mad at myself because I am great at being an advocate for special needs kids but I am terrible at being an advocate for myself.
They want to know what accommodations I need and the first one I suggested (Physio Ball as a chair they said NO to due to Health and Safety issues),,so then I just clammed up and said nothing. I need to grow thicker skin, and advocate for myself.
Ok thanks for letting me get this off my chest
Hugs Mel

We never saw the offer from June post and i just assumed we didn't meet the criteria. The 400 we just got today I'm *assuming* came from the gas station purchases All we've seen so far was the 100 for the initial sign up.So lucky! I've been waiting for the 400 AM from the first Soar into More promo and was on the phone again with Amex today. The girl just said that by the rules, they have 90 days past the end of the promo (July 31) to post the miles, even though it also says "up to 2 billing cycles" as well. I've now had 3 billing cycles since I completed this offer in early June. I hope it doesn't take this long for the 800 miles from the current promo to be put into my account as I need those miles before Christmas for Disney tickets.
Is anyone else waiting for their 400 AM?
Sorry to hear about your server mishap! Hope everything will be back to normal soon!! Pixie dust!You have no idea how exciting this is ...

I understand how hard it is to miss school at the beginning of the school year as you are setting class norms and routines. Yet there is nothing more important than your health. Hope you get well soon!O/T,,,long rant

From what I see, its a travel certificate. so you should be able to book everything seperate, but you need to do it with one of the travel companies.
So do you think this means no more booking any flight on the Airmiles site. I am concerned about the discount I get on the Airmiles site with my CC.
Is this only for packages? Will we still be able to book our flights and hotel a la carte? I sure hope so.

From the site:Says "Vacation" and "Cruise" - pretty sure Vacation means all-inclusives.
Flights and hotels should still be separate.
Here's the link to all the FAQs regarding this change
FAQs regarding booking Travel Rewards
If you click the "Get Offer" on the airmiles site, it will tell you how to use it. For me, since Sobey's/Foodland offers don't show up on my airmiles site, I load my Foodland/Sobey's to my card at: https://getmyoffers.ca/#/ Once it is loaded, I'm able to use it without a coupon. (I do not have an airmiles app, since my 'smartphone' isn't used for data and is kind of dumb. )How do I use the airmiles website spend $100 at Sobeys get 100 AM? Will it just do this automatically if I spend $100?
I spent $90 there yesterday and forgot that was an offer, but at least got about 120 AM. Not the best week...
