Just updated the Rexall flyer for the western part of the country, checked all my links and noticed that we'll get a new batch of LnG offers tomorrow! Fingers crossed i get some new ones, i mean come on, how many times do i need to buy a bottle of 100 Tylenol in a year -- never mind TWO bottles at once?!?!?! I've had the same offers for about 6 months now, every other Friday it swear this might as well be playing on the radio when i wake up ...

I hope for a threshold load n go to stack with an email coupon. Haven’t got that for a while. Don’t know why.

 

[bgula]

I didn't answer because we've never used that offer on either card so i don't know the answer.

OK i just dug thru my email and found one i had saved with the thought we might hit a Shell during the summer and the terms say 4 weeks!

**Sorry i didn't look more earnestly when you first asked because i know there are others here who use Shell

Thanks. I should have looked at the original email myself first, but didn't think of it. I did another fillup tonight and it now says I've done 3, which is correct. So everything now seems to be fine.

We keep getting offers for Benadryl and Reactine. I can't even remember the last time we bought either of them! Looks like the L&G items for us are the same as the last batch - won't be buying any of these either.

Same old offers for me. Some are quite good for me, but lots aren't. Face cream I don't use, and how many packs of tums do I need??

Off topic, but cashed in my refundable recycling for $25 and got another WDW gift card

 

[Days In the Sun]

Did anyone get a threshold spend app offer this week for Rexall ie. spend $40 get 40 airmiles. We didn't get any, only product offers.

 

[ottawamom]

No threshold spend for anyone in my household at Rexall.

Same here.

 

[Donald - my hero]

No threshold spends for us either. I was just in Rexall and went for the savings instead of miles. Something I needed was a targeted offer but there was a double package on sale for only another loonie, money is more important in my mind.

Also made the trip down to the Urban Fresh Queens quay to check on the Netflix offer, sadly no and I wasn't the first person to ask. Holy wind batman, I thought it was bad further north on university but dang, just about blew me off my feet when I stepped off the streetcar

Aakkk, you'll never guess what just popped up on my Spotify playlist while I munch on my lunch, the sound track for the old Soarin! I'm listening to my top 100 songs from 2018, guess I played the WDW parks soundtrack a few too many times

 

[marchingstar]

No threshold spend for Rexall here either. I did get another spend 50$/earn 20x the points at Shopper's, so if I have to pick anything up at the drug store this weekend, that's the offer I'll use. I'm not sure I really need anything though, so I might forego any offers and just save a bit of money.

That's a GREAT idea! I'm going to talk to the hubs about doing this!

It's quite easy to do.

I have a post-it note on my fridge and every time I empty our under the sink bins to the blue bags in the basement, I record how many items I put in the bag. When the bag is full, I write the number on the bag with marker. I just keep the bags until I have enough for $25. AND, I don't have to empty the bags and count them all! It's already done for me. I give the guy at the depot my number and he pays me and I'm out the door. Don't have to wait to have them count them out at the depot.

We drink a lot of pop (cans), and bottled water, so it doesn't take long for me to collect that many. Plus, my MIL gives me all of hers.

Would you happen to know if you can use the Disney GC's to upgrade a park pass to an annual pass?

Nothing for me either. I’m getting bored with the same old Tylenol and Soft Soap product offers every week too, so random.

Sorry, I do not know much about annual passes.

Yes, if you are referring to doing it at guest services, I did it in August at MK (upgraded an airmiles ticket).

Edit: Sidenote: I'm assuming you are referring to non-expired tickets. I've been reading on the "all about tickets" thread that people have tried upgrading expired tickets (expired Dec 31 2018) and they were only allowed to exchange it for a complimentary equivalent ticket with a short expiry (no upgrade allowed), so the rules seem to be changing. Two different people reported this. In regards to using gift cards to pay for tickets or upgrades, that is not an issue, you can use two methods of payment per transaction, so you'll likely want to use the Disney gift card website to merge your cards if you plan to pay with recycling

Thanks for the info! Yes, this would be for non-expired tickets. I was thinking it would be for our hypothetical 2020 trip. Even just picking up a gc here or there, just to make it a little less painful when it the time comes.

It's a great way to save for a trip, you have time on your side. When we came home, I had one rather large Publix grocery bill to pay and airport parking, that was it. 9 days and 6 adults, all paid with airmiles and Disney and Starbucks giftcards.
