I have a question about the app. I haven't really been using it so I'm not too sure on the answer here but if I load an offer on to my card using the app do I just have to scan my card and I get those bonuses or do I have to scan each bonus? I hope that makes sense

You just load them on your card and when you have your card scanned at the check out, you'll get the bonuses.

Boo on the email coupon this week. My load and go is spend $30 get 60 AM. I think I'll just do a $30 shop and use my receipt coupon (spend $30 get 50AM)I will get 130ish AM as one of the items I want to pick up has Bonus miles attached to it. It will mean more ice cream treats from Sobeys to make up the difference. Oh the things I do for my airmiles obsession .

Here's this week's coupon for Rexall (not terrific in my mind - and for my loadngo offer i need to spend $80.00 so no Rexall shop for me this week!)
Spend $50.00 get 80 AM Valid July 17th - 20th

Maybe Birt needs a few treats as his parents are away right now.
Maybe some popsicles or ice cream?

Stopped at Sobeys for a few more treats Spent $65 and got 313 AM! There were a few cans of soup left and I picked up some lean cuisines for my lunches. Only need about 700 more for my flight now. Seriously should have done it on Friday.

Wow! That's awesome! Care to share what you purchased?

I like your style! Actually Birt is heading into Toronto tomorrow .. riding on a double-decker GO bus, stopping at Square One to make a friend at Build-a-Bear, staying at the ALT hotel overnight, taking the UP into TO on Wednesday, having a Beavertail on the waterfront .....YES, i am completely out of my mind! I was tasked with taking care of my "grandbaby" and he needs to be spoiled, right

 

[pigletto]

Do you think there is any chance of the MegaMiles posting earlier than the end of the estimated time frame?

I am hesitant to just pay cash for that last ticket. I'm worried I'll do that and the miles will post right after or something. We are 38 days from our trip and I just need this one last ticket...

I got 5 boxes of $3.99 ice cream treats, 3 boxes of $4.99 ice cream treats (one of which was Hagen Daz 3 pack that I had a loaded offer for), plus 10 Lean cuisines and 3 cans of soup so 100+100+60+40+10 (plus 3 regular air miles).

I wish they'd post today then I'd be able to get my flight. Oh well! I'm sure when they arrive I'll find something to do with them

They are due by the end of September though so you might want to pay cash for your last ticket

Yep. I figure it's a long shot that they would come that early, but every time I go to buy the ticket I decide to hold out a little longer just in case.

This is disappointing! I am glad I decided to drink that Costa Coffee and get AM here and there instead of waiting for the Mega Miles!! Hope it gets posted earlier than stated, so everyone can move forward as planned. I ordered my last WDW last Thursday. I hope it arrives this week. Last time it took about a week. Keeping my fingers crossed!! Hope it's not wishful thinking!

Thanks Mel. I didn't think it was that late but I didn't really pay attention. I'll just go with my plan B and use the miles for a car rental if I can.

Thanks for posting this. If they will post the 1250 once all the bonus from sponsors have posted then that would mean they should be posting our 1250 anyday. My bonus coupons for the promotion were posted weeks ago. The only one I'm not certain of is the 25 transactions from BMO (I just got my notice from them the other day about another May bonus they had going). Moot point anyway as I had 2 extra coupons used (just in case).

As usual they are dragging their heals as the could have posted them already unless they are waiting for the last of all their sponsors to post and then they will look at all people who participated and award everyone their bonuses at the same time.

Is it acceptable to wear "swim board shorts" as part of a bathing suit?
with a tankini top.
I'd feel better hiding the psoriasis and eczema on my upper thighs,(not to mention the chubbiness).

I think that's absolutely fine. I bought a swimming skort and wear that with tankini. I like two pieces because it's easier to use the washroom while going for Islands of Advebture's water rides. I have a one piece for activities like dolphin swim and snorkelling. One piece is safer than two pieces in these cases to avoid unnecessary flashing in any way. I bought swimming shorts for DD who doesn't like skort.

I think it would be just fine as well. You won't enjoy yourself if you aren't feeling comfortable. Get what makes you happy.

I just had to book a hotel room for the hubby for Friday night as the family members where he is all week, their house will be full of their own kids visiting. I was trying to book through the airmiles website through Expedia. How do you know if it's still in the airmiles shop or if your in the Expedia website? I hope this makes sense.

Just shaking my head, as we finally got a date for our sons surgery. I wish they would have called sooner so that I could have used the hotel promo that Airmiles had on a couple of weeks back. Oh well...one day I will get to snag some of the good Airmiles promos they have
