Airmiles Armchair Chatter

I bit the bullet tonight and rescheduled my flights for August as they went up again today and seats appear to be selling . I was penalized $100 per ticket and paid the diff in price . Basically I repaid for my tickets all over again . For five of ya it wasn’t pretty
So please pray for lots of Blue Fridays before June so I can try and pay for some more trip items .
I tried to use pc optimum today and she scanned the card off my phone and it froze her system . She moved to another cash and said she wasn’t risking it freezing again and wouldn’t scan my card. Apparently PC might be an issue for me lol
Off to bed. DD has strep son was going to take her to the walk-in this am as it’s a stroke day and he came down with stomach flu .
I need a break
 
Has anyone seen a page for the Bonus Boom? I have looked all over the AM's site and can't find it even mentioned. There must be something.
 

Rexall had a “use 95 cash miles get 50 AM” offer back in November (Nov. 1-3). The 50 AM is still not posted yet. Does anyone have the miles posted already? Is it time to chase yet? TIA!
I had to call about them Dec 27th. I had called earlier and they said to wait so when I called the end of December I said I wanted to clean up my outstanding items. They can see it easily and should be able to tell quickly if it was posted to your account or not. (not in your case). Try online chat.

Is the Shell offer of 4 fill ups of a min. of 25L with premium gas in a month for 100 bonus miles a targeted offer? I remember getting an email but not sure if it was for my daughter's card or mine? I did the 4 fill ups on mine and the 100 miles are not there and usually they post right away so I'm wondering if it was only for my daughter's card?
 
When you log into your account, it will be on the main offers page if it’s for you. I seem to think its for everyone though as I saw the ad at my local shell station.

I wonder if there will be another Rexall coupon for the 12th to go with the Bonus Boom offer (spend $50 get 100 AM only Feb 12). Perhaps one of the last big Rexall spends :)
This is a strong possibility - the 12th is a Wednesday which is when the one-day-only offers have been falling on. I'll keep an eye out for a 2nd coupon and then I'll put together a post if it pops up so we can all take advantage of them one last time!!!
 
I just glanced at the Bonus Boom offers and once again, I'm fairly confident it will be a Bust for the Duck's household.

A note for any of our Newbies ... PLEASE do NOT fall into the trap of leaping onto any of the small to no cash outlay offers OR big pay-out offers because there isn't any extra incentive to do them for this *promo* Historically we've had Mega Miles pop up in the spring, 2019 it was late March - April, 2018 it was late Feb - April, 2017 it was the month of May and the total bonus for that has around 1,000-ish ,miles if you use a certain number of coupons.

Offers I'm talking about:

  1. Cook It -- get 325 with first order
  2. Hudson Bay convert HBC points to miles and get 30 miles
  3. Create a Samsung account and get 25 miles
  4. Wealth Simple open account get 400 miles
  5. Hearing Life book a test get 75 miles
  6. Rewarding Your Opinions sign up, complete a survey get 15 miles

ALL of the above offers are once & done for each card number so hold off using them till a big promo will give you more miles!
 
OMG !!!!!!!

Went on MDE today and found all these notices that ALL of my fastpasses were going to be cancelled. After 1.5 hours on hold with Disney find out that my ticket which was purchased through Airmiles had been voided by Airmiles. Whyyyyyyyyy?????????????? Husband's ticket and fastpasses are all fine. Disney says I have to get a ticket reinstated today or they can't guarantee my fastpasses won't be because my tickets were bought through a 3rd party.

Now sitting on hold with Airmiles to find out why and to have it reinstated. Don't need this stress with only 2 weeks before we head to the Mouse !!

sounds really stressful! I hope you get it sorted out easily
 
For some reason I thought the Shell one was 21 litres not 25 litres,,(I just did 22 Litres).....dang!! double dang.!!!

The Shell I was in today had signs up saying
1 sandwich
1 coke or 1 Dasani water
1 small bag of Old Dutch chips
Get 20 Bonus Airmiles
I am not sure if this is a new deal coming out or one I missed.

Hugs
Mel
