Shop the block question
My printer is out of ink.
Is there a coupon book with all of these at Rexall that I could pick up?
Thanks Hugs Mel

Shop the block question
Can I buy the Bothwell cheddar cheese at both Sobeys and Foodland to get 2 shops done?
Hugs Mel

Shop the block question?
So I plan to get the
1. Maple Leaf sliced meat deal x2
2. Bothwell cheddar cheese x2
3. Prime frozen boxes of meat x2
Now can I also use the spend $60 get 20 airmiles shop the block coupon for this transaction?
Thanks Mel

5 Metro use 95 cash airmiles on a single purchase Dec 1-4.
6. Rexall spend 15.00 Nosh and Co Dec 2-8.
7. Costa Coffee

1) Yes the booklets are out -- also at Children's Place and i would imagine Staples HOWEVER there are a few that only show up on-line -- I haven't done my thorough study of this yet not sure which ones You can show the coupon on your mobile device as well though if this is easier for you BTW
2 & 3) It looks like you can use the coupons at each store and have it qualify -- you can only use each one ONCE though.
3b) The only fine print attached to the spend $60 get 20 is this so *assume* you can use them at the same time --
Cannot be combined with other minimum spend/receive offer(s).
great thought process if you need those items because you'll be done the whole shebang this weekend --way to rock the shop the block Mel

AKKKK no-one has reported on this AMAZING deal yet -- glancing thru the Foodland flyer with the airmiles filter on -- who's interested in an almost 8 AM/dollar return?? Think stocking everyone!

I dont have the flyer in hand but looking online, it doesnt look to work. It appears to me that it only applies to the shaded things for sale, not the whole page.
Hope I am wrong, but hate to burst your bubble.

I took that clip directly from the flyer after i hit the tiny little "i" that appears when you hover your mouse over the items. I first filtered the flyer to show the Airmiles bonuses ...don't worry, I'm having a hard time convincing the winter-phobic hubby to make the 90 minute RT anyway

I tried the five Ferrero rocher on Friday morning. No bonus points. I was dubious so took my iPad with me to show the fine print... the advertisement is supposed to over ride any in store dispute. However, I did not contest it at all. It's a small Foodland and I figured it was not as intended. I don't know who eats the cost if I did pursue it.

Yeah we noticed once we picked up the physical flyer that it wasn't in there (I finally convinced hubby that it wasn't snowing enough to need the snow tires -- OOPS was on the way home) so i had him pull it up on his phone where we discovered this tiny bit of fine print


But we decided that they still meet the requirement of "decent quality treats at a decent price" for stockings -- that and ALL 4 of our adult kids insist on Kinder Eggs we still bought some!

We then also picked up 2 of the meat --- $6.99 will earn us the 25 plus one coupon
2 cheese 6.99 for the 25 and one coupon --- surprise bonus on these was an extra 15 on the shelf BTW
3 of the gifty things -- total cost of the ones we chose --$20.97 --- 25 AM
spent enough to use the spend $60.00 get 20 AM so another coupon.

All of that paid for the last giftcard from our last escapade netting us 103 AM for $67.35

Bought 2 Cara GC with our Mastercard to earn those 140 and start us on the way for that extra Shop the Block offer. That was FUN!

Hugs Mel

Yesterday when I shopped I used both coupons. The came up with different PLU##'s for the Sobey's Cheese and Foodland Cheese. So I'm assuming they are separate.

 

[ottawamom]

Just remembered another questions I had. Yesterday I picked up some Marks GC at Rexall. When they processed them the AM didn't show up at the bottom of the receipt. Anyone else have this experience. The Store manager "knows" me and said he would make it right if they didn't come through. He said those AM were coming from Corporate or AM directly.

That is odd -- I've had the AM for GC at Rexall show up on the receipt before --definately keep an eye on those. As a side note i I really don't care for how my Rexall AM are posting since we were pushed to Load and Go, they used to all be there within 24 hours when i used coupons AND showed on receipt -- the last 2 weeks neither of those are happening and when i contacted AM (what a joke their customer service is right now!) i was told all of those offers will now be treated as bonus that can take up to 120 days to post BOO

I bought a $50 Old Navy card at my Rexall today and the 40AM did not show up. The manager just did a manual adjustment for me.

 

[bababear_50]

Yes there is!

For the gift cards: If you bought 2 $50 cards would you get 2 lots of 70 bonus airmiles? Or does it have to be put in 2 separate transactions?

Hi I just wanted to put a "caution" out there
I just bought two marks 50.00 cards and received NO airmiles.
The cashier had to manually add them ( 16x5 ) .total 80 airmiles
So double check your receipt.

It's two separate coupons so I assume it can be done. I plan to anyway.
Sobey's also had the booklets at the cash by the way. Not all the offers I plan to use are in the booklets though.

I love my middle son,,he bought some ink for the printer!
So I have the coupons all printed out and ready to go.
I am going to use both Sobeys and Foodland coupons for the cheese.
No coupon for the Costa Coffee so I will just keep my receipt.
Off to foodland and Sobeys I go tomorrow morning.

I'll give it a week (maybe two as I'm off to the World at the end of the week) and then I'll go in and get them added to my account manually if they don't show up. I had another bonus offer about two weeks ago not show up on the receipt at Rexall and they quickly added them manually. Didn't get a second post from corporate so its a good thing I had them add them.

Thanks for the input everyone.

My 2 Gap/Old Navy GCs didn't show at the store either. I notified the cashier who added the 80 Airmiles after. They posted today on my account.

OK I'm going back into the store sooner than later. I will get those AM owing to me!

ROAD BLOCK-Shop the Block.

My Foodland does not have the Bothwell cheddar cheese or the Maple leaf deli meat slices.
The manager is supposed to call me this afternoon. I am a bit disappointed, you would think that shops would be connected to these offers and stock for them.
I have to think out a new game plan here.

Maybe he can special order in the two items for you. I can see that a smaller Foodland might not carry them as a regular item as they are not the most economical choice but they should be able to get some in if they have a guaranteed sale. Here's hoping!
