Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[bababear_50]

I have to say this one suits my family just fine. We drink milk every dinner time, and the kids love chocolate milk (all five of them). Also, chocolate milk has a longer expiry date so i can stock up a bit. For once, Metro is offering something I can use. Their offers have been terrible all summer long.

I should think before I post...I come from a family of 5 kids and we "kids" would have loved it.

Hugs to you Hon
Mel

Thanks..your comment about stocking suffers reminded me I needed to pu the axe body wash and spray on sale with bonus am til today! Which I will save for stocking stuffers!

I know people love Axe but it reminds me that I am going back to work soon and it's in a school where sometimes with all the mixes of Axe and other lovely sprays the staff can't breathe.
We try to tell them a little dab will do.LOL
Hugs from Mel who doesn't want to go back to work.

I've got to say it is a "hard" shopping week. Rexall earlier in the week 54AM. Rexall today 58AM, Metro 73AM. Hope to get to Sobey's tomorrow should be good for 80-130AM should make it up and over my 250AM target for the week but only just. I hope some big bonuses come soon as my account is about to go to zero when I get park ticket #4.

We hit ONYX level for the 3rd year in a row -- and this is the quickest we've ever done it, last year was a squeak by on about the 15th of December

We just glanced thru the Sobeys flyer together and discovered that for us it should be a great weekend! Steak .. YES PLEASE, Chicken thighs YES, hubby has some serious tummy issues at times that's all he can eat, mini cheese crossiants? sure who doesn't love a tiny yummy buttery bite?,water crackers YES of course I'll buy more of those, might look at the frozen Marie Calendar's meals to have when our kids drop in, the pork chop meal deal YES, even might do the peach & cheese one Add to that all the amazing ones that tend to be on the shelves in our store (yup it's ours now even though it's an hour round trip commute) Anyone know when that great Villagio bread deal is over?

What "good' mom wouldn't give their daughter in law a bag of Hob Nob biscuits and crackers with a bottle of wine for their new home?

HEY .. everyone get the email a few minutes ago about the "Airmiles Prize Pool"???? In case you haven't yet .. here's the link (cause i'm nice like that!)
https://www.airmilesprizepool.ca/en...-_-EN/NATIONAL-_-31018/Awareness-PrizeContest

Now if anyone can figure out how to actually "play" the Watermelon game, i'd love to know the secret since I've tried it in all 3 browsers AND on my Kindle and no luck -- click till i'm blue in the face and nothing is happening.

HEY just got another e-mail with a coupon for Rexall to use next Mon-Thurs -- spend $40.00 get 60 ... much better than the flyer stated spend $40.00 get 40. here's the link to that

Watermelon game doesn't seem to work. Won't even let me enter my number.

Watermelon game doesn't seem to work. Won't even let me enter my number.

Worked for me in Chrome.

 

[pigletto]

Wouldn't let me enter my number. I'm using Chrome. I'll wait and see if it isn't working better tomorrow. Thanks for the heads up Donald!

I couldn't get the watermelon game to work until DH killed the ad blocker/pop up blocker. In fact, nothing on the airmiles shop works until we turn them off.

 

[bababear_50]

Hi guys
i chomped away at the watermelon and got two free entries---I did have to unclick ad block.

I don't think I have ad block. How would I turn it off?

I didn't have adblock on (I followed these instructions.. http://www.wikihow.com/Disable-Adblock). What ended up working for me was to not follow the link from here, but just to sign in to my account the regular way, and then search for the promo (it was on the bottom of the main page), and follow the instructions from there. Not sure why it worked, but it did .

Ooh, that worked for me too! Thanks!

Donald - the Villagio deal is still on at Sobey's

Just back from what I thought was going to be a boring Sobey's shop. Walked the aisles after picking up the items on my list and managed to rack up 253AM. I will have enough AM next week to get my ticket. Yay!

My son is off to Cuba next week so he's now taking two boxes of tampons (spend 6.99 get 25AM) with him to leave for housekeeping (stranger thing is he was actually thrilled when I handed them to him and told him what they were for)

I just need to add 19AM to DH account (too impatient to wait for LCBO newsletter sign-up to come through) and I'll be good for the last park ticket.

New goal. Flights for 5.

That worked for me too but the stupid thing still hung up --- ended up getting 2 free entries BUT the skill testing question to get the 2 times the Airmiles bonus i found just popped up and said "isn't that the pits you entered the wrong answer" UHM i didn't even get a question to answer phooey! OH well, i have a potential 750 AM coming our way if in fact hubby stayed on the Airmiles portal when he ordered his uber expensive work computer thru the Dell site (fingers crossed!)

So I spent $153 at Safeway and got 658 AM. However, I should have received 698...the cashier missed ringing in two of my taco seasonings ($1 each) so missed out on 40 bonus for that. I guess I can go back and say hey you forgot to charge me for these, and get them. LOL. Now I don't even feel bad for being undercharged since technically I got ripped off AM!! ha.

Anyways, still happy with my AM haul for today!

HOLY COW! It sounds like the Safeway bonuses are way higher Sobey's. Taco seasoning might get 5 airmiles here if you bought 2. But 40? No way. That's almost $70 in airmiles for spending $153. Was it a very very good promo week or is it always like that?! If so.. I'm moving.
