Ok, just got the flyers! Sobeys - 60AM when you buy a $50 iTunes giftcard. No meals deals! boo!! The cat chow deal continues, and a few other smaller ones.

Rexall - Spend 40 get 40AM for 3 days only. Plus the usual stuff there.

Metro has a few deals, the one on the back is for buy 3 items get 20AM (nature valley or fibre 1 bars are the best deal at $2.99 each)

Thanks Heather
Ah (*&^%$% no meal deals............
Well it is not looking too promising for me this week.
I will wait to see the Foodland flyer before making a grocery list and probably drop by Sobeys if I get some "good" targeted offers.

I guess there all waiting for a big Black Friday Promo. Just want to remind everyone, if you shop at Rexall Fri-Sun and use your AM card you will get the Spend $30 get 50AM coupon at the bottom of your receipt (for use Mon-Thu the following week). It's a better deal than the Spend 40 get 40AM if you have a Rexall close by.

I could use a good gift card deal at the grocery store. I'm almost out of the ones I got in September and as you can see by my signature I've got a long way to go for flights. Good thing I've got until later next year to book them.

I could just smack myself for not remembering this. Thanks for the reminder.
This sinus infection has thrown me for a loop. I was at rexall picking up prescriptions on the weekend and could have grabbed something small to get the coupon.

The saveland website has posted Rexall's flyers for the next three weeks, I would guess it's an accident, perhaps not, but I'm expecting they will be taken down and posted at the correct time. Regardless, promos listed for the next 3 weeks:
Nov 11 flyer: 40am wus $40, 3 day sale
Nov 18 flyer: no weekend promo, 40am for $50 gc sears, bay, old navy/gap, dynamite, spafinder, bass pro shop, 5% off stamps
Nov 25 flyer: 1 day beauty event 100am wus $50 beauty Nov 27, weekend $10 gc wus $30, 10%off Canadian Tire gc, $5off wus $15 magazines

In regards to airmiles, I'm a little disappointed to be honest, stores in our area don't give the $30 get 50am bottom of the receipt promo. I need 300am posted before the end of the year on husband's am card for a disney 5day ticket and alot of those usually come from Rexall promos. We'll see how it goes. Maybe we'll all get personal emailed offers or loaded ones, I can always hope .

Hope this helps someone with their planning

Thanks for the heads up. I just had a quick look at the flyers. Will definitely be picking up some of those gifts cards to do some Christmas shopping. Will use my AM credit card and get some more.

I'll be doing the gc promos as well, I can only buy so much cat food at Sobeys for airmiles lol!

 

[shaynar]

How do the GC promotions work? Do I need to buy 1 GC at each transaction? Or can I just buy 4 GC at once and get 160 AM?

At Foodland, I buy whatever number I want all on one transaction
and each one comes up with the bonus points. Fingers crossed that they don't have the gc deal at Foodland for the next 2 weeks!

Very late posting as it ends today in my local Sobeys (Ontario), but the Compliments "Nutrition" bars (in the Health Food section) are regularly, $1.29 on sale for .99 with 5 airmiles each. I bought 10 and received 50 airmiles. Sale sticker says til Nov 10.

Also, I have been buying the Purina cat food this week, almost all Purina Naturals at $5.99. Promo is 50 airmiles with 2 but they have been awarding 50 plus 10 airmiles for 2. I think the 10 airmiles was last week's sale??? Anyway, since it's on again starting tomorrow, you may get 50 airmiles or you may get 60. This was only the Naturals, the blue Purina Cat chow awarded 50 for 2.

Looks like a slow week for Sobeys for Maritimes again. I got an email offer through Lawtons: Spend $25, get 25 AM. It was a targeted offer though, not through the flyer.

On the bright side, I got over 10,000 PC Plus points instead. Over $50 now. According to this week's flyer, they are coming out with a big redemption event. Likely something like the Optimum program: cash out 100,000 points and get 20,000 point back (spend $100 but charged for $80)

This is the one Gift card that I still need a couple more of so I am glad it is coming up soon.
Thanks for posting

I see nothing in the flyers of need or interest for me this week but I will still
visit Sobeys to see if there is anything in store (airmiles) unposted that is of interest.
Have a great weekend.

I caved and bought some of the cat food. My cat eats this really expensive stuff but I'll mix this with it half and half and he should be fine. Sobey's had Sunlight dish soap on buy 2 get 10AM. At my store when I checked the receipt it was 10AM for each dish soap. It's a little bonus but in these drought times I'll take what I can get. The hunting is a lot harder but somehow I'm managing to keep my target of 250AM per week.

DARN! I just redeemed $400 of PC Points! I'd been saving them since last Christmas, and used them to stock up the freezer and cupboards after we moved...

My goal of 250 a week has gone right out the window. I'm not liking this new tightening up on the offers trend.

AND I just did an online order at Old Navy and forgot to shop through airmiles or ebates.

 

[ottawamom]

Keep the faith. Just like this summer the drought will soon be over. One good weekend and we'll all be back on track!

I buy the Canadian Tire gc with 10% off all in one transaction when Rexall has them on sale. Can`t say for sure about the airmiles gc bonuses but I expect all in one transaction will be fine.

 

[ttaylorcan]

My daughter gets the loadable rexall coupons and has 60am wus $40 for M-R, not sure if there will be an emailed coupon for the rest of us, but if we get one it is likely the same.
