BLUE RODEO

 

[ottawamom]

Need some opinions here gang. I'm currently lost down the rabbit hole of online shopping - retail therapy to help cope with a really poopy family trauma (no worries, we're all healthy, just really hurting and could use any good vibes you're willing to offer. Won't give any details so please don't ask)

I got a begging email to my secondary account to buy something online since that account has been sleeping since 2019. Spend $20 get 50 miles, BUT I'd rather spend the bigger $$ on my main card and have the miles go there. Looking at more fabrics and some polypropylene for masks (gawd that's hard to track down now!! Found a shop in Vancouver with free shipping) on ETSY and I'm curious about gift cards, this is what is says, no mention of them being excluded

Compared to something that does

Thoughts? Will i earn the miles if I buy a $25 gift card (lowest value available) on one card and then make the actual purchases on the main card?

I had a look through all the terms and it definitely doesn't say you can't do that. Purchase it under DH card and send it as a gift to you. Then you use it. Looks like it should work.

Worst thing that will happen is you won't get the AM for the GC purchase.(but you should)

I’ve giggled so much the first few days of this week going “oh, who me? No, no, I’m too young!”

I don’t think I’ve said “I’m too young” about anything for like 20 years lol

So I need your thoughts please..........................................
Quick shop Sobeys this morning
The cashier said I had to buy one of each of the 4 products to be eligible for the 95 Airmiles,,, (Blue Bonus).
I said NO that I just needed to buy 6 Lysol products .
Please have a look at the Sobeys Flyer Page #13
I wanted 6 packs of the wipes.
Am I wrong?


Thanks

All i can say is they darned well better get it working before midnight, I have some last minute shopping to do so i can get the 10X miles URGH!!! An item i had in my basket at ETSY has been bought and no one else has it, like ANYWHERE (ok, so Walmart carries it but we're devilmart avoiders). The outage happened just after i bought the giftcard on the secondary account and now i can't buy what i really wanted

My best friend loves Dumbo as much as i love Donald and i was gonna use this fabric to make her a mask and purse

I just checked and Walmart has the Dumbo fat quarters
https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/fabric...cotton-fat-quarter-bundle-multi/6000200411719These are shipped by Walmart and they usually ship quickly.

Yeah i saw that, should have mentioned that we're devilmart avoiders, just don't shop there. The fact that they sell the fabric just makes me even more annoyed

Yup I sort of remembered that after I posted this. Back to the drawing board.

So it is all your fault that I have now fallen down a rabbit hole of fabric. I went googling for your fabric and I have found a store in Ontario that sells Muppet material so I have a bunch of fabric in my cart to be shipped. I am still looking for other stuff. I haven't found anywhere that sells Muppet material so I am in my glory.

My store isn't on Etsy - it is an online fabric store but the prices are the same as your Etsy store. I now have other fabrics in my cart and just waiting to see if a friend needs any material. I can corrupt her as well.

Yes I can corrupt you as well since everybody needs more material. I saw this picture on Sweet Red Poppys facebook page today.

Now I have never shopped here yet I just found it through google but prices are in Canadian dollars.

I LOVE her site, she has some great projects that are easy and don't require a lot of stupid one-time use tools or notions. I think one of her mask patterns is one that fits me well.

I've looked at that site -- must be a tad too often because i only need to type Fu into google and THIS is what it autogenerates

The online portal is up again! Let the shopping continue

You guys and your sewing is going to be the end of me. We are going to be downsizing in the next little while so I cleaned house last summer, figured out what I could get rid of ahead of time. Got rid of my sewing machine and a 60 gallon container of materials I had collected, mostly from Joanne's Fabrics. I was good with letting it all go.....until recently, lol. Now the bug is coming back and your not helping at all. I actually found myself looking at a sewing machine at Costco a few weeks ago.
I have to stop!
