Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[Days In the Sun]

You'll one of the first 2 (if you spend $50, you'll get the 8000, if you only spend $30, you'll get 10X). You don't get both of the threshold spends. They $15 on brands is different and it stacks with either of the other 2.

I've tried stacking the $15/4k Loblaws coupon and it didn't work, perhaps I was purchasing a product that didn't get entered in the system properly??? Anyway, good to know, I'll try it again tomorrow.

Update: I was at Shoppers this afternoon with a 2k wus $10 and 4k wus $15 on Loblaws products loaded. Spent $15 and received the 4k but not the 2k, the 2k is still loaded. Last time I tried to stack I had 12k/$50 and $15/4k Loblaws and only received the 12k. YMMV.

Didn't get to Rexall, perhaps tomorrow.

The 4000pt coupon has been problematic. It should be stacking, but I know the Shoppers I go to wasn't having it post for anyone. In fact, I'm contacting them now because mine didn't go through. That's a problem with the system, it's not because they aren't supposed to stack.

ETA - the cashier was sure they should both work and said that it wasn't posting for anyone. I've done it before as part of a bigger spend and had it work properly.

I'm online with AM chat. Does anyone remember the link to the Insurance quiz that was 25 AM? They are asking for the link and I can not find it.

Sorry i missed this! The link is in the first post -- but it hasn't said that it's worth 25 AM for a very long time ...10 AM now.

Insurance Quiz to earn 10 AM

Nothing worth mentioning for Safeway in the west. I think I will focus on Shoppers with their 20X points on Saturday and PC plus this weekend!

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

PC Plus is really good this week for me. I think I'll just buy one $200 gc at Sobeys to get 100 miles, then rack up the points at Superstore.

 

[blue888]

Wow, nothing in next week's flyers either... bah. I think I'll just use my IGA coupons with the 100AM if you spent $100. Also another lousy change I noticed. I used to get a load and go offer from IGA (spent $160, get 35AM). It used to stack on top of the 100AM for $100 coupon, but it doesn't now. Computer glitch? Or change in the system?

I can't see the GC deal in my Sobey's flyer. Is that for a specific area?

 

[blue888]

We were outta town for a bit and i couldn't answer this using my phone .... sorry!
OK, for the travel vouchers (and i won't be getting into the can of worms over the value now compared to before or in the future since this isn't something we can solve or pretend to comprehend!)

1. Vouchers do NOT expire - someone has some of them already and shared the fine print with us (@bababear_50)
2. There is no limit to the number of dream vouchers you can use this info is on BOTH the AM site and the travel agency site
3. These can only be used on package or cruise bookings, so no go on the Disney rooms
4. There will be an option to book travel packages/cruise on-line at some point in 2018 (i ain't holding my breath on a timeline)
5. Deciding to cash in as soon as you get enough for a voucher is a personal thing, for us it's fun watching the balance grow -- but dang thing hasn't budged since the new year, but others want to have them in hand.

What you've seen and experienced with customer service (both on-line, over the phone & even in person) is confusion over a relatively new system that is just different enough from the previous one to be mistaken as NOT different. THAT had a limit to the quantity of vouchers used (still exists for cash vouchers) Add a dash of some AM reps who are still pretty green and things get messy. I'm by no means an expert on this subject, just sharing the info I've collected in my files

Thanks, that is helpful.

If you have a Jean Coutu, they have another promo spend 95AM cash and get 95AM until Wednesday.

 

[kerreyn]

Just saw the Rexall flyer for tomorrow. They have a spend $50 get 100am for Friday and Saturday, so looks like I'll skip the email coupon and go tomorrow. Hopefully I can scrape together the $50.

Safeway's flyer is a bust for me. I'm going to stop today and pick up some more McD's pods and water while there's still am deals on them.

 

[Donald - my hero]

[bababear_50]

Well I am struggling here... I decided to shop No frills tonight and skip Sobeys/Foodland.
Even my targeted grocery offers were crappy.
I am scanning the Rexall flyer to see if there is enough I need to = a $50.00 spend, again I might just skip Rexall this week too. I used to stock up on Toilet paper and paper towels but they are limiting the amounts now.
Two weeks of a dry spell for me.

I did the Metro yogurt deal today and thought it might be worth mentioning, spent $10.47 on 3 Oikos plain greek yogurt 500g $3.49x3, basically same price I'd pay elsewhere.
20 am for buying 3 and cashed in for the bonus 50 airmiles.

I received an additional 6 airmiles personal offer, just a reminder to check your personal offers.

[Donald - my hero]

OH man, I would LOVE this deal -- I watched him cook his heart out to win that year!! It is even a perfect day for me since i need to be in the city at butt-crack-of-stupid o'clock on the Thursday but hubby is busy

 

[ottawamom]

I hate to pass up a good ONYX deal but driving to Toronto in February along the 401 is not my idea of fun (at least from Eastern Ontario). Good luck to those who are able to take advantage of the deal.

Thanks for sharing this! I ordered 2 and hope DH can go with me. If not, maybe DSIL. I wonder about gratuity. How much to tip if I don’t know the value of the dinner? Website states Tasting Menu starts at $55.
