THANK YOU! These AMEX offers are so easy to complete! And $400.00 in one month ... yeah, fairly easy for us on just groceries and there are only 2 of us to feed!

Reading about all they great Amex offers of late, I am beginning to regret having canceled my Amex earlier this year. Have fun with your adventures.

I wasn't going to do any more Rexall shopping but I was able to stack the S$50, G80AM email coupon with a L&G S$60, G100AM. Pre-tax I spent $64.55 and walked away with 191AM.

That's what I said...and add in the gas for the vehicle and we're golden. Just need to remind myself....AMEX, not WestJet.

Got the Amex offer too. Super easy to do!

What grocery stores take AMEX. I shop mainly Zehrs and Costco for groceries and they don't take AMEX?

Metro is our regular store and Sobeys when there are big bonus offers. Both take AMEX.

I'm going to try and get some Indigo gift cards tomorrow. Hopefully I don't run into any "lack of supply" problems.
I want to send them to my granddaughter so she can get a few back to school supplies.

Hi
I having been following this thread for a while now. Thanks for all the tips. I recently split my airmiles account so I could collect a few cash miles. I intended to cash those miles in for a few Starbucks cards to use on our next trip. Went to do that this morning and I could not find the link. Has Airmiles now removed those gift cards as well??? Arg

Hi
I just logged on to cash some cash airmiles out to get some Starbucks coupons and can't find them either. Keeping my fingers crossed that they add them back.

Just got an email about a one day promo at Rona, both on-line and in the store. Print the coupon (or show on mobile device I imagine would work) or use the code for on-line ordering. Be sure to sling-shot thru Airmilesshop if you are shopping that way to get even more! You can select pick-up in store (unless it's one of your AMEX Soar into More shops!)

Rona spend $100.00 get 5 X AM Valid ONLY Tuesday August 15th

Are all these AMEX offers for the basic card? I just cancelled my fee-platinum, then applied on the phone for the free-gold...would that be ok for all these offers you all seem to be getting and I wasn't?

So
I am getting a bit tired of misinformation........
I took 3 $25-$500.00 Indigo gift cards (probably the same ones I had from my last shop) to the customer service desk at my Sobeys.
Hi I say,,,, Can I add $25.00 to each of these cards?--yes mam no problem.
Will I get the airmiles attached to them? yes mam and if not I will manually add them.

Customer care VISA Gift Cards (phone conversation)
Hi I was wondering if I can use my cards to buy a few back to school gift cards for my Granddaughter.
No mam that is not allowed--that's like laundering money.............................it's illegal.
So here's me thinking I'd go to jail......................
Well I just bought Starbucks and Indigo gift cards with the Visa Gift card and so far
I've had no problem using them. Hopefully no jail time.

I like airmiles chat because I can copy and print what they say.

Ah the joys of shopping

I'm thinking yes and considering applying for the gold card myself BUT I'd phone or live chat with airmiles on this.

That was nice of customer service! When the Foodland CSR lady and I looked at the reloadable Indigo & Netflix gift cards, she said they won't get the 35 AM offer on them and she wouldn't be allowed add the AM manually.

Today I phoned Sobey's customer service 800 # (and messaged them on Facebook) about the $30 Netflix cards. There are no such thing as $25 Netflix gift cards. But yes, the $30 ones will get the 35 AMs. So I went back to my local Foodland and purchased 8 of the $30 Netflix cards and received all my bonus Air Miles! Plus 2 Indigo cards. 350 Air Miles collected!
