Sobeys is sorta dud again. They do have a 50 point meal buy that isn't too bad if you use ground turkey or chicken. Good luck all.

 

[bababear_50]

I might take a trip to Sobeys and get the villaggio bread and buns deal as 25 points is better than none this week. I don't eat ground chicken or turkey though.
I'll check for in store specials.

Do the Disney Passes or SeaWorld tickets have an expiry date that they need to be used before?

WDW tickets do not, from what I hear Disneyland they might have an expiry. SeaWorld no idea sorry.

 

[bababear_50]

I looked up Sea World info and can not find out that info online--I would call Airmiles direct to see. I do know if you buy a one day ticket for Sea World direct from their site they do expire One year from purchase.

Thanks for the pointer to Rexall, went on the weekend and stocked up on sunsreen (buy 2, get 8AM) and a few other things that were on crazy-sale, so spent $58 and walked out with 118 AM, went back for more of the same yesterday at lunch, spent $46 or so, and walked out with 78 AM. They were all things we absolutely need and on sale, so I am a pretty happy lady! Now to see if Metro or Sobeys step up their game before back-to-school sales start...

so I have a spend 40 get 60 airmiles email coupon that has to be used by today. I also have a 10.00 rexall coupon . Can I use the coupon to cut my costs to spend 30 get 60 airmiles?
Hope that makes sense.
The coupon for 10.00 has to be used by today.

Makes perfect sense but unfortunately the answer is no, but you will still get the $10.00 off -- you'll need your final purchase PRE-TAX to be over the 40.00 and they take the coupon off first. So you'll need to find $50.00 worth of stuff and pay only 40.00 to get the 60. Clear as mud?

Hmm, my results are very different.

If it's the Rexall $10 coupon (promo for previous weekend spend like this weekend coming up), then yes, you can use it to bring down the spend for another promo.

I've done this several times before at my Rexall with the usual spend $30 get 50 AirMiles coupon.
I spend $30.
I use the $10 coupon to bring it down to $20.
I stack it with the spend $25 get $5 off coupon for filling out the survey and bring it down to $15 no problem.
I get 50 AirMiles.

Both those $5 and $10 coupons are treated as cash tender IME.

This shopping I did end up spending over the $40.00
I spent $58.00 with tax.

I know last week the manager told me the $10.00 promo coupon is just like cash tender so don't forget to use it.
Next time I try this I will ask for the manager to see if I can do this.

I want to shop at YOUR Rexall I was clearly told "no that's not treated like cash if you want to use the bonus points"

This shopping I did end up spending over the $40.00
I spent $58.00 with tax.

OR perhaps i should shop at YOUR Rexall Now you can bet I'll be printing out gazillion of those goodies whenever i do the surveys! Thanks for letting me know i can do this!!! I'll just have to be a tad more forceful i guess

I finally spoke to somebody and she said they are good for 10 months from the time of redemption.

Funny thing about one of my Rexall stores (well former Rexall store).
The manager (not sure if he is the owner) follows you around and rearranges the products if you touch them. I've been reprimanded for buying 3 ply instead of 2 ply toilet tissue because they made a mistake and advertised them both at the same price. The store is new but does not have a scanner at the cash so if I want to use an email coupon it has to be printed out on paper and not just on my phone. They give me the impression that I am doing something wrong if I just buy enough to get the airmiles (yes I do use a calculator and sometimes buy multiple separate orders),,hey I am still spending money.They told me I could only use a use a coupon once each visit to their store. So now I just don't go to that store anymore.
The one I go to now has a Manager that is great and I am frank and will ask her questions if I don't know.
So I do know that Rexall stores can vary.

Air Miles has a back to school bonus offer on right now until September 12th. Earn 150 bonus AM when you shop online at three participating AM vendors! Easy enough! Just make sure you log in and go through airmilesshops.ca

To complement this offer, Rexall has Old Navy/Gap $50 gift cards at 20% off (5-11 August).

 

[Canadian Harmony]

I spent $164 last night and came away with 368 AM. I've converted a friend too, and she spent $158 and ended up with 360 AM. Oh yeah!

Now you can't tease us like that .. give us the DETAILS!! Where did you shop, what did you buy??

Man! We don't have any of these stores in NS! We have pretty crappy AM deals, if I'm being honest! grrr

I can imagine your frustration.

Gap/Old Navy from the AirMiles shop would deliver to you in NS, no? There is no AirMiles bonus for buying the gift cards at Rexall. Maybe I could buy them for you at the 20% discount and email the PINs so you could make an online purchase. Email money transfer the funds. I'm at Rexall anyway. Certain amount of trust required of course. But neither of us would want to get blacklisted from this thread.
