Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[Debbie]

Have Sobeys or Foodland ever had the restaurant gift cards on deal for air miles? Fingers crossed that, yes they have, and yes they will, and it won't be the weeks that we are away in November. Shoppers spend weekend should be coming up soon, shouldn't it? Or is that at the end of November? (I always miss it!)

I am soooo upset. If I had only waited to order my tickets I could have saved 2625AM (5 7day tickets). Who would ever have thought that they would lower the amount needed like pigletto said. I suppose it could just as easily have gone the other way. Now if only AM would reduce the # of AM needed for my flights when I need them in 2018 I may be able to get over this

We were all trying to get them ordered before they increased the price! Yes, very unexpected they would go down. I could've gotten the 7 day tickets for less AM than I ordered the 5 day, and be able to book FP for 7 days instead of 5! Oh well....still free! I switched to cash a while back to be able to use towards starbucks gc, etc. Not sure if I will switch back or not. They've really scaled down on the rewards and I worry they will do away with tickets after I've been saving!

Hi Shelly
Where is this promotion located? I'm not seeing it in the Ontario flyer.

Does anyone has friends/relatives who collect with their miles expiring in December? Wouldn't it be kind of them to use their miles on us who need them for various theme park passes? lol

They did last year near Christmas, I bought some for my parents and sister's family. I think it was that one that is good at a bunch of places, and The Keg, different weeks.

I wish I lived near a Foodland! I was hoping that is what they are putting in in Barrhaven, but I think it's going to be something else, a Freshco maybe?

If you're in Barrhaven (Ottawa) you can drive 10min east through Manotick to the Foodland in Greely. I often go there and then cross country to the Sobey's in Barrhaven to finish up my AM shopping for the week. Google maps it you'll see it's not far (worth it when they have a couple of good deals)

Thanks! I didn't know it was that close... I'll check it out

Thanks for the heads up. I'll do a roadtrip tomorrow and take advantage of those deals.

Did anyone else get the Thank You bonus of 25 miles for shopping at airmilesshops.ca? Needs to be used by Oct. 31...

 

[Debbie]

Oooo. Two surprises today. In the summer, I switched to Johnson Insurance with my RTO discounts. I knew that I got airmiles for the quote. I didn't realize that I get airmiles each month I pay. Not many, but every point counts. Also, DH's hearing test points were added.

I'm in Nova Scotia, and I definitely got both 95 AM promotions last evening! Which will give me more than enough miles for a 7 day WDW park ticket! Happy birthday to me

Can someone explain to me how to see the Metro flyer online? It looks like their format has changed? I used to be able to see what they had for airmiles but I can't figure out how to do that now with the new format.

Oh i agree, it SUCKS now!! terrible way to display it and there's no indication which products have Airmiles. For quite a long time they've given me an option to see "my personailzed flyer" and i always get this message(and it's stupid because it is our primary store)
Jacqueline, we have selected 0 flyer deals for you from the week's flyer. We do not have enough of your purchase history yet to display your list of personalized flyer deals. Keep shopping at Metro and remember to use your loyalty card to enjoy all the benefits of the program.

I liked being able to select just those products for my first glance -- do it with all the flyers. If we're lucky we get our bundle of flyers dropped at our door on Friday (supposed to come Thursday) other weeks not at all
