That's tricky
I've reviewed the Terms & Conditions and can not find anything that indicates it must be in store or Online.
I am thinking back to when I have done a card link online and that would be Kernels,, ordered via online ,,,but I did pick it up in store.

Here are the T& C again

OK, question for those amazing minds. This Best Buy flash offer. Does the purchase have to be made in store or can it be made online? I see they sell Netflix gift cards online and if it would save me a stop at a store that would be lovely. Thoughts?

Interesting, I see they have a bunch available online as digital giftcards, Netflix, Old Navy, Xbox and DoorDash would be good choices here. Sadly no Disney cards. I'll have to go to a store sometime this month to get one of those, my goal is to add $25+ to my disney cards every month this year.

Anyone else having issues trying to sign in. In the app it just keeps bouncing me back to the sign in page. On the desktop I can get signed in up my account balances are Nan. I know it's likely just a glitch but I wanted to make sure I had opted in to all of todays offers before I shopped.

Edit to add. It's back working now 11:10am

Looks okay for me (app and laptop) hopefully you're back up and online!

 

[bababear_50]

App and Desktop are working for me.

So once again my purchase for Gas appeared right away on my account but my instore purchase did not.
frustrating.


I did my $50 shop at BestBuy get 100 AM and will see if they post and when.

I got my spend $20 at Amazon get 100 AM finally today ,,,,,


I also got 25 AM that I didn't even know about from Jiffy lube for an oil change last week.


CRF*T Non Alcoholic Beer finally posted


And I treated myself to a Starbucks Gingerbread Oat Latte.

worked properly this time!
I've taken to going into the store, picking up the things I want and pre-authorizing the fuel to make sure it's showing as only 1 transaction

Hi hon
so I did the two transactions
one at pump and
one in store minutes apart but because I separated the two orders I will not get both Airmiles?

First transaction was gas total amount $40.00

Second transaction was $43.40
4 bags salt and two chocolate bars.

I tried calling Airmiles but the current wait is 2 1/2 hours.

I just don't think I got enough Airmiles.


Thanks
Mel

Filled up the SUV. Unfortunately DH filled up the other car at Petro Canada yesterday on his way home …

I've just been doing it as 1 transaction for the last several months the way i mentioned because that generates 2 receipts, 1 in the store with the pre-authorized amount that I can keep for airmiles tracking and the actual amount for hubby to add to the business books so he can claim mileage (he keeps track of how much he drives that's directly related to the company and then figures out how much that works out to. He's also anal about the fuel consumption ) looking closely at the terms this time in wondering if that one little section "as part of one Shell visit only" means it has to be one transaction but I think they meant you can't do 2 or 3 separate cars?
Looks like @dcessford had 2 separate transactions and it posted properly for them. Guess you'll need to do some chasing

 

[tinkerone]

Check your accounts. Shop the Block just posted!

 

[ottawamom]

Mel, according to T/C you can do 1 pump purchase and a separate instore purchase. Not sure why your instore hasn't shown up yet.

Not a bad day for miles...775 STB, 70 Shell, 100 Best Buy

 

[kuhltiffany]

Shell for me tomorrow for sure. Not sure if I will find a best buy or not. I don't even know where they are any more. GC is a good idea on that though

There’s one at Centrum!

Gas posted for me without any problems. I also got a little gas bonus....DH's workplace is under a massive reno and they are throwing out almost everything. I needed another filing cabinet so I went and picked one up from him. Saving myself a couple hundred dollars and saving the cabinet from the landfill. The Shell station over where he works was 7 cents/L cheaper than my usual spot.

StB block on the other hand did not post correctly. My account got 250 and I now see that my Dollarama purchase did not post. DD's account did get the 775.

I still have not addressed the missing 400+ from the Pizza thing and now I have StB to add to that pile. Guess I better get my butt in gear and deal with this.

I haven’t gotten around to the missing pizza pizza one either, thanks for the reminder. Kind of dreading the process…

I’m just busy with life and haven’t taken the time to fishing out my MC statement. I just started to look for it and DD called. Lots of drama going on there.
