) and they have a really nice Sobeys that we can hit up for the week's groceries in the hotel room. Snapped a picture of both front of the card and the back of the thing it's attached to so you can see what stores it's good at (and to confirm that it does NOT say FreshCo) 
So i ended up convincing hubby to make a drive to Rockwood (about 30 minutes each direction) to snag a single giftcard since the weather is perfect for a drive. I reminded him that we're heading to London next week (relax, only Ontario
Do you do the new Sobeys? I wish we had one in the southeast end of the city, but there is nothing here. A trek even for a No Frills (or Food Basics that I never visit).
We've actually never shopped in the Sobeys --- drove past it a couple of times and thought "that's BIIGG" Hubby will be teaching in Sarnia for the week and there is nowhere to stay there and NOTHING for me to do so we'll stay at the south end (TownPlace Suites this trip). That means I'm close enough to walk to White Oaks and make the trek to the amazing Landmark Theatre. I'm making another assumption here that YOU live in LondonDo you do the new Sobeys?

I giggle when I think of the one board and threaded threads of the original DIS. So much fun! Still online friends with one of the originals who left in the purge.
We met at Western and lived in London for a year after we were married so I'm quite quite familiar with the city and comfortable with the transit system. We're hoping that next week has some good Sobeys deals!
things have changed -- I rarely venture past the safety of the Canadian border even HERE .. some of those Dis-ers are nasty

I too have been a Dis-er since the infancy, but forgot my original screen name & password and until today I made that dreaded assumption that my location still showed under my Avatar! I've added it to my signature now ---
. BTW, I also went to Western.
LOVE the Landmark! Have a wonderful time!
And I agree....Canadian board, and occasionally the Budget board. I should be on the Disneyland board, since I'll be there in 3 weeks.
Ugh this is brutal. Maybe they should reinstate gift cards as something to purchase with dream miles then. This totally changes things for me.Since I know some of you are waiting for AM to reinstate the Cash Redemption ban to use your STB miles, I received an email from AM that says you can no longer redeem your cash miles for gift cards and there is a limit to the daily redemption limit....here is the email I received from AM
Since temporarily suspending the in-store AIR MILESCash redemption option last week, we have been working diligently with many of our AIR MILES Cash Partners to reintroduce the feature.
We are now pleased to let you know that we will be reinstating the AIR MILES Cash option for in-store purchases starting Wednesday, April 5 at 5:00 a.m. EST.
The in-store Cash redemption policies have changed, specifically:
• There is a new daily redemption limit of $50 (475 Cash Miles) on in-store AIR MILES Cash transactions across all Partners, per Collector Cash Account, per day.
• AIR MILES Cash Miles can no longer be used to redeem for gift cards, prepaid credit cards or other similar items.
Here are additional steps you can take to protect your AIR MILES Cash Account:
• Every AIR MILES Cash transaction prompts an email to inform you of the activity and also provides instructions on what to do if you were not the one who used Cash Miles in-store. Make sure your email address always stays current on your Account to ensure you receive this email notification after every Cash redemption. It is an important part of the fraud detection process.
• You can easily "lock" your AIR MILES Cash Account, preventing all AIR MILES Cash redemptions from occurring, until you decide to "unlock" it. To lock your Cash Account, simply use your PIN on any one of our channels (airmiles.ca, our mobile AIR MILES App or our Customer Care automated phone system), and select the "lock" feature.
• For added protection to your Account balance on airmiles.ca, you must now log in using your PIN to access your Cash and Dream balances.
The security and protection of your Collector Account are of utmost importance to us. We ask that you continue to protect the security of your AIR MILES Account by maintaining the confidentiality of your Collector Number and PIN.

I know! When they have the bonus AM when you spend $100 you won't be able to get it. Not sure why they couldn't just make it so you had to enter a pin when you paid using cash miles.
