The Quaker granola bars seem to be the best deal. Let me know if anyone sees a better one. $1.66 each and buy 10 get 100AM!

 

[ottawamom]

Just added up my first run through the flyer and Blue Friday will add up to $92 and 340AM. Will need to find only a few extra items to get the extra 100AM for spending $100. It's going to be a good day.

Oh how I wish my son would eat those!

Thinking outside the box. What about using them as Halloween treats to hand out? I usually give out two of the mini chocolate bars and some chips. A box of 100 mini bars is 16.99 (Rexall) they would work for 50 kids. 10 Boxes of Quaker bars $16.66 and you would have 50 bars to hand out.

THAT IS BRILLIANT!

This!! I was thinking the exact same thing earlier. My kids only like one flavour of the bars. I need my air miles so I'm going to buy up any other available flavour for the trick or treaters!! I just happen to be working from home on Friday so after one important conference call I am going to hit up Sobeys!

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

OMG! Sobeys Atlantic gets Blue Friday! As well as the $100/100 miles coupon! Not sure what we did to receive such great offers, but I'm not complaining! LOL

 

[isabellea]

Looks like I will take my Friday morning off and drive to ON for Foodland Blue Friday!!

 

[hdrolfe]

Will be stopping on the way home from work Friday, and hoping everything I want is in stock! I think I can do about $120 for 460 AM. Thanks for the idea of granola bars for halloween treats! I'm just a little worried I may not actually be getting things we need for meals lots of snacks though lol.

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

This is my first Blue Friday, however, I am also worried I might to stock up on stuff we don't actually eat / use in mass quantities.

I also hope they don't run out of products.

 

[kristabelle13]

Is that an air miles mastercard?

Yes, it has SPC, gives a kickback to the alumni association and has Airmiles.

 

[Spotthecat]

Too bad my Sobeys stopped being 24 hrs, I would have so made a killing at 12:30 am! But now I'll have to wait until after work...there will be zero stock of everything.

 

[alohamom]

I just got my loadable digital coupons from Sobeys and there was a 7 AM bonus on Philly cream cheese so I am going to pair that with the buy 3 get 20 on Friday

Just an fyi for anyone looking to get the cream cheese and might have the offer as well

Nice! I'm looking at $103.10 and 480 air miles on my card. I'm wondering if I can do another spend $100 on my husband's card. Ohh wait. I don't need to spend $100 on his card. I just need 100 air miles added to his card. 10 granola bar boxes will cover that! Now I'm really happy.

lol - I'm doing the same thing. Last year I believe we handed out kool-aid jammers.

Hmmmmm...
For those of us who do PC points, there’s also a really good NoFrills offer in Ontario this weekend which I planned to do until I saw this.I can’t afford and don’t need to get $350 in groceries so I need to make some lists and see which will work out to be the better promo for me . I suspect it will be NoFrills because their base prices are so much lower but it will be fun to figure out... yes this stuff is fun for me .

ETA) I take it back.. it looks like if I do a $100 stock up shop at Sobey’s and spend $150 at NoFrills to get $20 in points , that will be my best plan . Now to make my lists!

Omg, thank you for the reminder! I completely forgot about my husbands card (I just opened up an account for him for the back to school promo-and the blue cards just arrived last week). 10 granola bar boxes for him!!

All this talk about the granola bars. Will they even have more than 10 boxes on the shelves on Friday?

I think I'll pick up 10 more on DS account. He'll be about 300AM away from ONYX after the Back to School bonus posts.

Does anyone recall what happened last year around Sept 8th? This is on Airmiles facebook page:

Last year we turned an ordinary Saturday into something extraordinary. On Saturday, September 8, we're doing it all over again.

Keep your eyes peeled to our social channels to see how we'll be bringing smiles to our Collector from coast to coast for our second annual Happy Any Day!

#MilesBringYouCloser

I can't remember what happened though!

Wasn’t it some kind of smile booth ? Like people got their pictures taken in store in the booth... I vaguely recall something along those lines.
