Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[dancin Disney style]

For those that have ordered on line from Apple.......do you still get AM if ordering through the AMS portal but chose the in store pick up option? I'm probably going to get DH a new IPad for Christmas but I want to wait for the Black Friday (hopefully ) 20X AM. I don't trust that I'll get it in time if I have it shipped.

Is there any special multiplier offer going on right now? I discovered last night we are out of black printer ink and I need to order some for pick-up at Staples. Unfortunately STB is too far away. We need to have ink later today.

I am sure that you have probably ordered your ink already but I just went on the Staples website and they are having a friends and family event right now.
go to staples.ca and you will see the deal
15%off $40 spend with exclusions but I didn't see printer ink in there.

Yes, you will still get the miles. I ordered an iPhone for my daughter in the spring and she picked it up in the store and I got the miles.

Anyone receive their 95AM Bonus for doing the October Bonus Boom? I'm thinking those should post before we get into Shop the Block season.

Just received my 100 AM for doing 3 x 30L fills at Shell.

I have in the past but check the exclusions , was looking last week and looks like the latest version of products are excluded from Air miles . Not sure what IPad you are looking at as I was looking for an Apple Watch.

Ah darn. I am getting the new iPad Air for DH, was hoping for the airmiles. That sucks. Although it means I can just go out an buy it and not worry if it will arrive for Christmas. Or maybe get it from Staples....I wonder if that will work.

@CanadianKrista or maybe The Source?

Actually hun, you'd be surprised. When you posted photos I immediately thought the same. I totally believe you could sell them. There IS a market for Disney themed bags/purses. In fact, there's a lady (by the name of Serendipi D) who takes requests; creates; and sells them on Facebook. She opens a waitlist 2 or 3 times a year. I could have sworn she was a DIS'er but when I tried searching for posts by her, I got nothing. She's been doing this for years. I ordered a custom made bag from her back in 2014. I don't recall what I paid (and can't find it in my e-mails) but it was $100+ US easily... Here's photos of the one she created for me.

I think I know who you are talking about. Is it @DMGeurts and her amazing bags!!!!! She has many trip reports and I have been reading her trip reports for a few years now.
@Donald - my hero you might be surprised at what people would spend money on!!! I would totally spend that on a bag that I would use just for a Disney Trip!!!! But then again, I could probably whip one up myself too....hmmmmmmmmmmmm...that might be something I can work on after my courses are done in Jan. That might help me get through the rest of our cold, icy, sucky Canadian winter this year...since we probaby won't be going anywhere warm.

Thank you, Mel, for posting this. I had inadvertently deleted my . Pulled it out of the trash bin and opted in. With a new house in the offing, I may actually need something from Rona.

LOL....he only uses it to watch Youtube videos and FB. So I'll be buying the cheapest, most basic version. I have looked at getting him a Samsung or Amazon tablet but if I wanted an IPad (or anything for that matter) I would be buying exactly what I wanted without even a thought. So I don't want to cheap out on him.

Ah darn. I am getting the new iPad Air for DH, was hoping for the airmiles. That sucks. Although it means I can just go out an buy it and not worry if it will arrive for Christmas. Or maybe get it from Staples....I wonder if that will work.

I'm glad you mentioned Staples....it might be possible to double dip on that one for StB. I might have forgotten about that.

I was on my facebook page this morning and there is a notice that Walmart is now part of the Airmilesshoppes website but there are lots of exclusions.
Details: Electronics, groceries, baby products and video games are excluded. Purchases from Pharmacy, Financial Services, Tires, Optical, Walmart Photo Centre, Gift Cards, Online Gift Cards, and items picked up in store are not eligible for Miles. So I guess it is just normal items ordered online for shipping to home that are eligible. Darn I thought I could earn miles purchasing my groceries and doing curbside pickup.

Post edited as I made a mistake
Global Pet is a BMO Partner
It's Jiffy Lube that isn't.,,,ok I will just maybe buy a Mastercard/Visa for that one.

If anyone needs quick posting AM. I did a Rewarding your opinions survey yesterday and they were posted today. Worth a few moments of time if you're only a few AM short of a redemption.

 

[ottawamom]

Reminder to anyone doing the 3 week Shell promo. Yesterday was the beginning of week three. Don't forget to get some gas or do an instore purchase that will generate 1 AM.

 

[dancin Disney style]

Looks like some deals at Sobeys this week....

[ottawamom]

I wonder if any of those Max a Miles offers will coincide with Shop the Block.

Looks like the Shop the Block offer for Sobeys will be spend $100 get 5X Base AM. (read it at bottom of page in flyer)

Thanks for the reminder.
I am trying to wait till STB starts to see if I can get away with one purchase only.
