Airmiles Armchair Chatter

Just because I'm up to walk the dog doesn't mean I don't partake of the occasional afternoon nap (my favourite thing).

Today, I see a 3-Park 2-Day Park-to-Park with 2 Days Free Ticket
as a special. 4 days for 2, and the added park. I wonder if they are going to this instead, for now?

Hmm... at first I thought no, they will bring the other one back as well. But now I wonder if it will be the only US offer until the new year and AM runs out of stock. This is the current special Universal Studios is offering on their website but it also states the tickets are only being sold until November 30, 2017. The tickets expire in May 2018 otherwise this would be perfect for our trip, which isn't until end-August 2018.

Perhaps, but the ticket is listed as an Air Miles Event Exclusive. That makes me think that this isn't going to be one of their normal tickets that they sell.

On the version of the Airmiles website I see, they have moved it to the "Fun and Attractions USA" section. It may be here for a while.

That's where I saw it as well. I clicked on Dream Rewards and went straight to USA Attractions.

If any NBA fans are in Ottawa this coming Monday, I just got this in my email...

I see it there as well but if you look at the category title, it says, "Dream Rewards / Events & Attractions / AIR MILES Events Exclusive"

But for someone like me who makes a game out of getting as close as possible to the threshold it throws a real wrench into my math... On Tuesdays I've been known to grab a few "add this to my order so i make the $" Those days i walk out with a snack or drink that I wasn't planning on having so i guess it's a win-win???

That's what happened to me today! I didn't realize seniors were 55 too. I'll make a point from now on to try and hit senior Tuesdays.

[isabellea]

Crap! I ordered my daughter's books for teaching from Amazon...and forgot AGAIN to go through the portal.

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

Oooh, I wonder if my son needs any textbooks that maybe I can order through Amazon!

I never do any on-line shopping without first checking the portal because they are constantly adding new stores to the list. One i found surprising is the Disney Store! Heck, even the Mint is there if anyone wants the 150 coins. Also included are hotel chains, car rentals, Groupon, Ebay etc.

There is this bunch of fine print but i still order EVERYTHING and they somehow seem to sort it out! Some books have netted miles while others didn't

Please note: AIR MILES® reward miles will not be earned on Amazon Gift Cards, Books, eBooks, Groceries, Automotive supplies, Tools & Home Improvement, books, or Kindle devices or Kindle eBooks.

Just ordered hubby a set of tools for his office and THEY did in fact earn me 2 base miles and 2 bonus so, who knows??

A tiny story to maybe make you smile........
A hour ago when DH and I were going out I told him that we needed to stop at shell and put in 25 liters of gas, no more, no less. He said 'okay'. I said, '25 liters, no more, no less'. He said 'I'm not an idiot, I know what I'm doing'. We stop at Shell, Mr. 'I'm not an idiot' gets out and puts $25 dollars worth of gas in the tank, hands me the receipt and looks please that he did exactly what he was supposed to.
What can I say?? Lol.

gas is 99.9 here--maybe 25 dollars is 25 litres? or maybe i'm just wishfully thinking for you!

AM friends will commiserate with me, i think:

until a minute ago, i thought today was wednesday. which was exciting because i'm pretty sure we're going to see a blue friday out west this week, and i want to see the flyer (which comes out wed evenings). when i realized it's only tuesday i felt so disappointed i'll have to wait another day to see the sales!

 

[ottawamom]

Today feels like a Wednesday to me too! I want my AM to post
