Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[bababear_50]

Just got in from Sobeys and I think they need more chairs for we (abilities people) especially near the customer service area when Mel has a complaint about her airmiles and the only available chair is occupied.
Grouchy girl I am today.
So I picked up 10 boxes of the Nature Valley trail mix granola bars--surprised as they were on sale 1.66 each.= 16.60 = 150 airmiles.posted to my bill.
I also picked up
1 yogurt
6 boxes pizza pops
2 boxes of apple cinnamon cheerios
1 nature valley breakfast squares (cinnamon).
These would not post so they had to do it manually which took forever at the customer service desk but I was not leaving without them. Manually added 150 airmiles.
Just as I'm leaving the store I realize my coupon for 5 airmiles on strawberries didn't post grrrrrrrrrrrr so back I go--they said they will post at a later date to which I said they better. Now I feel guilty being such a grumpy grump.
Hugs
Mel

So this is a great score. After converting, these boxes cost you approx. .80cents each. Very nice, and they are good too.

There are 2 new coupons on-line within the Ontario region:
Sobeys/Urban Fresh : Use 95 AM and earn 25 AM Valid May 19th - 21st

This will give those of you who didn't get your earning profile switched around in time for last weekend to take advantage!

Does this count for Mega Miles? I was hoping something like this would pop up! That's why I gambled and switched my earning to cash miles for a day before I switched back to dream miles.

Now I'm even more impatiently waiting for the miles I earned on Sunday at Foodland to post. They *should* post as cash miles.

With this, I will easily be able to complete all 5 offers! No need to buy a $20 bottle of wine for cooking lol!

YES, it popped up this morning on the Mega Miles site. So long as you haven't used another coupon at Sobeys (i don't think there were any others?) it will count

Hmmmm maybe I should show what a kind and caring aunt I am and take a few(10) boxes over to my sister's place.

I was at Sobey's and I was not sure these would qualify, as the flyer said they were $2.49 . The store I was at had a selection of the $2.49 ones and then the ones on sale for 1.66, anyone else have luck with getting the 150 AM points with the 1.66 ones?

I should switch to cash miles today and take advantage of the Rexall offer on Sunday. Hopefully I can get that outstanding MM done! Thanks for posting!

For mkmommy and others
Update: Nature Valley granola bars.
I just went back to my local Sobeys and bought another 10 boxes of granola bars.
I looked for some more expensive ones and could not find any as they all seem to be tagged at 3 for $5.00.
The 150 airmiles did not appear on my bill,, but a manager came over and credited me 150 airmiles. So I am thinking they have a cross over problem with mixing a Sale with an Airmiles promotion? Hopefully someone else is able to give it a try and post.
So far this has been a good buy for me as we actually like these types of granola bars.
I did donate 3 boxes of the "school peanut free ones" to the food drive bin.
450 airmiles from granola bars-yeah!

Update: just swung by Shell to pick up some Red Bull & a safeway GC - the clerk told me it's no longer 7x on GCs apparently "they just changed it". Hmmm my receipt showed the 7x but only for the RB.

Thanks Mel for posting this deal....I picked up 4 gift cards as I have a Swiss Chalet right next to my office and we go at least once a week...another 200 miles closer to Disneyland!!!!!!

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

Woohoo! Only spent $50 at Lawton's and completed my MM offer there for 95 miles, plus I was able to stack my BYO for another 50 miles and apparently there were in-store miles offers, so in total I earned 197 miles for $50...I'll take that any day

Checked the airmiles site and it is still listed as being available until June 4. Can't see why they'd suddenly stop it.

I bought a $50 gc at Shell, 2:03pm Eastern time (Ontario) and got the 7x points. I didn't anticipate them ending this early, I certainly would have bought more.

Just went to our Sobey's and got 10 boxes of the nature valley granola bars @ 1.66 each. The airmiles didn't post automatically but we went to customer service and they added the 150 miles without a problem. Thanks for posting this deal.

A few people have said that Foodland is expensive and I tend to agree. We tend to visit Foodland Sunday mornings when they mark their meat down 50%. There isn't always meat that we need but we have lucked out most weeks that we go with some steak and some hamburg.

 

[cdnmickeylover]

Forgot - we talked to the cashier that helped us add the coupons and gave us the % back on the coupons that had that. She said that part of the problem appears to be that according to airmiles the coupons aren't supposed to start til May 12th although that is not anywhere on the coupons themselves. Only the expiry date is on the coupon. She said that they were honouring them though for people who ask because how is anyone supposed to know that they aren't to be used til May 12th where that is not indicated.

I haven't had any posted over the last two weeks and only one receipt had them on there. At 9:30am PST I bought $100 worth. And then at 4:30PST is when they said no - I bought a $50 safeway one anyway (I'll use it).

They have the $2.49 boxes at my Sobeys in Ottawa. I purchased ten of the 3/$5 and had to go to customer service. She gave the 150 bonus miles to me 'just this one time' and told me it was supposed to only be for the $2.49 varieties. It really always pays to jump on these things early before they work out the details. I should have went through a few times yesterday.
