Do two $50.00 dollar spends with the Visa and get 110 airmiles for each one.
=220 airmiles
+ 10

230 airmiles in total

Edited to add
:although if I have to pay $6.00 to activate the card then its not worth the extra 10 airmiles.

OMG i just Choked on my water! I was glancing thru the flyer to see if i have enough i need to make the trek to the store (on foot) worth it, saw that and thought to myself "That is what started the Airmiles thread but it was a MUCH better offer!"

The original offer that started this thread 2 years ago was about a Visa card offer at Rexall BUT it was Buy a $50.00 card and get 100 AM PLUS the weekend flyer offer was spend $50.00 get 100 AM so i suggested buying the giftcard, activating it and then using it for the $50.00 sale to earn the extra 100 AM. In that case you spent $56.00 and earned 200 AM. This time around it's a joke offer!

Very rare to get that many points on a gift card anymore.

My husband wants me to purchase a pre-paid CC to use on AliExpress this weekend. If I purchase it from Rexall's (as my only purchase), will it stack so I receive the 10 miles for the CC plus 110 miles for the $50 or more purchase?

I checked my Air Miles account this morning and found a sweet surprise waiting for me. 617 Air Miles credited to my account! Of those, 150 came from Goodyear Blimp! I was staring at it trying to figure out where that would have come from when I remembered. I won the miles as a secondary prize in a contest a couple months ago and completely forgot about it! I checked my contest list and sure enough I was notified on June 13th. I was aiming for the grand prize (trip for 2 to Ottawa to ride the Goodyear Blimp) but I'm happy now that I have a goal for my Air Miles!

Hi Hon
Yes you can purchase it from Rexall and get airmiles as it is a specifically offered airmiles deal.
Normally there are no airmiles allowed on gift card purchases.

Hi Hon
You can not purchase it from Rexall and get airmiles as unless it's specifically offered as an airmiles deal.

I'm drinking my coffee this morning and popping in to see my friends in the airmiles thread. I happen to be at my resort in Orlando right now. Like I do on every trip.. my thoughts are turning to "when will we be able to come back?"
I'm hoping for December 2018, but realistically it will be March 2019. It's getting much harder to plan a trip with the youngest in high school by then.

Anyway, I'm off to the MK today but I am thinking of you guys, and this thread, and I"ll be back to collecting airmiles for our next set of tickets soon!

Not sure if you've been at Universal yet, but lots of people have been reporting that the BOGO deal for the meal plan is definitely usable over many days.

We will be there Friday and that is a huge help! Thank you Damo.

Just updated the 1st post with links to the current flyers, haven't had much time to actually LOOK at any of them though .... Looking forward to reports from all you hunters

Blue Friday for us out west!

Quaker granola bars $1.99 and buy 10 for 100
Huggies diapers 3 for 100 (boo really wanted pampers)
trtilla chips 4 for 50
chunky soup 5 for 50
KD cases 2 for 100
nestle ice cream 4 for 100 (I feel this happens every time this summer)

The prices aren't great for this Blue Friday but I think I may have to pick up a few of these just for the Air Miles since the offers seem to have dried up quite a bit in the West lately.

Here's the report. There is nothing to report. It's a slow week.

Not a great Blue Friday, IMO. I think this is going to be the first Blue Friday that I'll be struggling to get 500 air miles.
