Looks like you have to be an Amex card holder for this to work (at least that's the way I interpreted it). I gave up my Amex a few months ago. Darn!

Yes, I'll edit my post to make that a bit clearer!

Same, just last month

I really kicked myself on that one, gave it up in January, forgetting it would have given us 10% off food and purchases at Universal on our February trip

10% off food and purchases at Universal

Is this automatic if you pay using an AMEX card?

 

[Sailormoon2]

Random Question: If I purchase the current CDN deal through Disney and add on the water parks and more park hopper, will I get to keep my water park passes IF I upgrade to an AP? And if yes, would I have to go to a water park on that January trip, when I activate my AP or could I "hold on to them" until a Summer trip?

I think so, I remember having to remind them sometimes though…

If anyone is in the market for anything large-ish from Staples here's an awesome special! We snagged hubby's printer thru the last on-line bonus offer (came to just shy of 500 AM) and bought his Surface last year in store when this was on and snagged close to 1500 AM --

I just checked my Load and Go for Rexall for the coming week. They finally gave me a lot of targeted offers (non of which I need a the moment). I got the gift card $10 when you spend $30 and the spend $50 get 100AM on beauty products but no "Spend $x get XAM" for Monday to Thursday next week.

Anyone else get the one for Monday to Thursday that they usually offer?

yes, i did... spend $60.00 get 100 AM (far too much for one sale!) I *might* use one of my targeted offers but only if the spend X get X offer is better via coupon!

 

[ottawamom]

Very interesting!

I was just speaking with the cashier at Rexall (went to get my sales slip coupon for next week) and I asked if she got a spend $x get XAM in her loaded items. She got a spend $30 get 60AM. These loaded coupons are becoming more like Sobey's targeted spend $x get XAM (I never get close to using those). Boo!

I'll just have to wait for the email coupon to come out early next week and use that.

On a side note I went to my local FreshCo. Pulled out the same Foodland GC I used last week and the cashier said she didn't think they could accept it after she looked at both sides of the card. I told her that I used it last Saturday without issue. She swiped it twice and it worked. I think I may print off the paragraph from the Sobey's website which says where they can be used and just keep that in my wallet in case I need it in the future.

I don't know what's going on with my Load and Go - the only "offer" I got was Spend $10 and get 20 airmiles. No offers on any individual product - WTH?!

 

[kerreyn]

On the bright side - my Blue Friday airmiles finally posted, so I've just ordered another two of the Universal Orlando 2 Day Passes! Now we only need 2 more Universal Orlando passes and one WDW 5 day pass (once the Canadian resident sale is over).

Yes, that's where I went in February?

Turns out I need to learn how to read. The spend $50 get 100AM is my load and go offer. I got it confused with the beauty offer that is on this weekend. So if the email coupon is spend $50 get 100AM and I can come up with enough stuff I will pretty much have my weekly quota of AM in one shopping trip.

What a great offer!! I wish I got that one. My ds would have loved it. I hope your son and granddaughter have a great time. I've heard it's a really nice place.

 

[Donald - my hero]

WOW, it was a really lousy week for bonus offers -- the haven't been any posts since late Friday evening, no one detailing their hunt! We hit up a Metro last night in London and it was rather sketchy only snagged 12 miles. Let's hope everyone has good offers for an Easter treat

Here's this week's Rexall coupon -- it only runs till Wednesday this week? Wonder if this week's flyer will start on Thursday due to Good Friday
Rexall spend $40.00 get 60 AM valid April 10th - 12th

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

I squeezed out 55 miles at Lawtons and 109 miles at Sobeys and on my receipt was an offer for next week: Spend $150, get 100 miles. Hopefully there are good flyers deals on Easter candy as I have been holding out until Tuesday's flyer delivery
