Spring is in the air!!
Spring Mega Miles.
This makes me happier than the Tim's Roll up the Rim contest.
Hugs Mel

Me too!! Can't drink coffee anymore and even when i could i didn't like Timmies. Side note about the Roll up the Rim, do you know why it started and why it's in the spring?? Apparently it was in response to noticing a decline in coffee sales during Lent ! Hubby says that even if he gave something up there's no way it would be his coffee

Well I finally tracked down my missing STB online shopping miles for our 2 different accounts. I had decided part way through STB to open an account for DH, so his points were my main concern, as he received only 1000 of the 2000 points. So, I went on live chat and asked, and provided a date and dollar spent for my Amazon.ca purchase through the Airmilesshops portal, and fairly quicky and pleasantly the customer service agent provided the base miles, the 150 for the STB offer, and the additional 1000.

Then I went on my (our main, and Onyx-level) account and was just chasing the 150 STB offer points... and the chat rep had trouble understanding me, misunderstood which online retailer missed giving me the points, and made it seem like they were doing me a favour providing me those 165 points (15 points for the online shop itself). Oh well. At least it both were quick, and mostly easy. But ONLY because you all warned me to keep receipts (which I usually do, just not all in one place) and screenshots for the online purchases.

Looking forward to the new Spring promo now that STB is all sorted!

Thanks for the heads up Mel! Just wish the bonus miles could be more to keep my Onyx status. The mega miles would probably be posted around July.

Happy hunting my airmiles buddies!

Thank goodness for Mega Miles on it's way! Pickings have been slim here. I'll get a good haul with my BMO mastercard when it posts next but that's only because I had a high spend month with dentist bills and my daughter's payment for her trip. All money not out of my pocket, so that's good! lol. I'm hoping next Blue Friday will see some good specials so I can see my counter get up there some more!

 

[ottawamom]

The miles certainly are hard to find. I will have to shop at 4 stores to make my weekly quota. I hope my targeted offers will be good to put me over the top and save me one trip at least.

I just saw in the Metro flyer that they have an app that allows you to load your targeted offers to your card. Has this been out for a while or is it new? Looks like it will work in a similar fashion to the way it works at Sobeys.

Shopping trip yesterday earned me 72 AM ...

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

I get my BMO MC statement on Feb 25th. Curious to see how many miles I've earned since my last statement. Hopefully with our trip and some other large purchases, I will get around 400 miles.

 

[Donald - my hero]

Just finished updating the first post with current flyer links (now Wednesday is my happy-day!!) and a few things are jumping out at me:

Sobeys ON

• Quaker products buy 3 get 15 AM -- there are granola bars & Crispy Minis for $1.99
• Thursday - Sunday only need 75 cash AM to get $10.00 --- usual amount is 95

Foodland ON

• For the Maple Leaf products mentioned above -- several are also on sale letting you get more for the $20.00
• Also have the cash mile deal

I don't see the quantity limit that some mentioned last week, perhaps some eagle eyes can check for this -- don't want any of us to get to the till and get shocked!!

I'll have to get hubby to look at this later (you know, my smart phone is stupid in that i have NO room for multiple apps!) but i really hope this isn't the case since it will mean another loop hole is being closed. Currently the "coupons" stay active for a 2 week time period (if you remember to KEEP them) and there are times this is the only way we earn miles at Metro beyond the 1/$20, so if we load them to the card they will become once & done.

 

[Donald - my hero]

Finally had enough energy to track down my missing miles connected to StB online shopping & chocolate bars for my new card. Less than 10 minutes and i have another 250 miles

Now the question is, will i even bother with online shopping during the Mega Miles if it's included??? They never post properly for me during the promos (but perfectly at any other time!)

 

[tinkerone]

Just back from my Rexall shop. Spent $41.97 pretax and received 126 AM. I got a few great deals, one of them was $3.95 no sugar added chocolate bars. They were marked down to .85 with a $2.00 off coupon so......FREE! There were only two left so I was happy to take them off their hands.

 

[Tinkershelly]

I was at Sobeys in Halifax yesterday and there was an in-store promotion of 99 AMs when you buy 5 boxes of cereal, the giant 1.2 kg boxes of cereal!

 

[momof2gr8kids]

Why is it that whenever I can actually find enough stuff to spend $100 at Safeway there isn't a bonus 100 AM coupon?!??!

 

[TinkFan625]

I have been following this thread for a while and have been able to collect so many miles thanks to all your tips. So just had miles post from last weeks trip to Safeway .... 1000 bonus miles plus 69 miles.
Our family had to organize a lunch for a 200 people. This meant ordering meat, cheese, veggie trays to feed everyone. So I ordered from Safeway of course. When paying we split order up so could use 100 for $100 promo multiple times.
Hubby and my dad tell me I am obsessed when it comes to collecting. But don’t hear them complaining when I book flights and tickets to Disney with all my air miles. Thanks everyone.

 

[bababear_50]

My son reported that last nights dinner at Richmond Station with Chef Carl Henrich was great!
Food 10 out of 10
and
Wine 10/10.
Thanks airmiles.
Hugs Mel

 

[bababear_50]

I hope my Sobeys airmiles post today as I really want to change over to cash airmiles but I have one more travel certificate to buy before I do that. Why can't all sponsors post airmiles like Rexall does?
Hugs Mel
