Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[bababear_50]

I'm hoping to get out this afternoon. Stuck at home at the moment with a sick fur baby. Kids are all grown and I'm kept up all night by a dog who needs to go outside every hour.

DS came over this morning so I could run to the vet for some meds. Hopefully she's on the mend and I can get back to my AM hunting. Rexall today and Sobeys and Foodland on Friday (haven't figured out what I'm getting at which store yet)

Hugs to you and the Fur Baby Hon
Hope the meds kick in quick.
Hugs

When do the current UOR tickets expire? September? I'm really curious to see what they will be costing (in air miles) and if they will have any promo/multi-day tickets?

Sounds like a good deal. I love the Dagwood original sauce!! One of my favourite sandwich place, much better than Subway imo.

Good to know never tried them

It just says they expire 9 months from purchase, but is that when THEY got them or when YOU redeem your miles

So I know what POS means but this morning I read the above and burst out laughing. I read it as piece of sh@t. Heaven help me I think it's going to be a crazy day for me

I Googled it as I had no idea either

Did someone answer you? Point of Sale

Oopsie! I'm usually much better at avoiding short-forms -- don't like the way they can only serve to increase confusion (like hubby's face when I start talking in Disney-ese ... his head explodes when i start chiming off things like ADRs, AK, POFQ -- yup he didn't know that one! -- , and if i was to send him an email or text with those he would be lost!) I was in the middle of fighting with the danged coupon codes, had 3 tabs in 2 different browsers open on the surface, phone had several apps running and the stupid house phone wouldn't stop ringing!

sorry!But happy i gave you a morning chuckle which in turn had me giggling as well!!

LOL....I didn't need an answer, as I said I know what it means but at that particular moment I read it differently

My goodness, I almost forgot it's flyer day! Links are updated in the first post and here are the ones not provided by our late night/early morning savings hunter, Mel.

Early Blurry Rexall ON Flyer
NEW Survey coupon Valid till August 6th

Sobey's Western Flyer

After I update the first post I always recheck all of the links to make sure I haven't made a mistake or there aren't any dead links and i stumbled across this gem! I'm happy I checked this because I have a few baskets sitting waiting to be completed and the minimum is only $50 this time (i struggle to make the standard $100)
Pay attention to the different categories again, they are NOT the same as the standard ones
****ETA all of mine are in "Department Stores" Amazon, Etsy, Indigo (why not in books?!?!), and HBC --the only one that SHOULD be if you ask me

Mel, great job!!! based on your AM, I am guessing you able to double dip the spend $50 get $100 AM coupons. I am hoping my Rexall will let me.

Just stand your ground and politely ask them to scan both coupons. I find it's easier at one of my stores if i print them out, then it's obvious they are different.

I do have them printed....

Anyone else having difficulty seeing Sobeys My Offers. I keep getting a "technical difficulties message". I want to balance my Blue Friday to take advantage of the Loadable threshold spend at one of the stores.

 

[Mickey&JoshNut]

Thanks everyone....at first the cashier wasn't going to scan the second coupon and I asked her nicely to scan it as it is a different coupon with bar code...she did and presto...200 AM for my $59 spend!!!!!

 

[Mickey&JoshNut]

I have a question for the AM gurus....I just got an email from AM with a Rexall offer for tomorrow...spend $50 on beauty products earn 100 AM....is this something that is automatic because I can't find a coupon?

Update: I thought why only get 100 AM for my $50 when I could get 200 today. So I printed out another set of the AM coupons for today and headed back to Rexall, got my hair colour that was on sale and some gel and voila...another 202 AM!!!!!!

 

[ottawamom]

Rexall shop today. Went to my local store and got 202AM. Then I went in search of one that had M&M products. Found one just a little further west. DH drove me there after dinner and we picked up products to net us another 202AM. Great start to what will be a good AM week.

I wasn't certain if they would accept both coupons at this store so I used @Donald - my hero line about please try scanning both and lets see what happens. She did and of course it worked (as we all knew it would). Having M&M's food is going to be a game changer for picking up AM at Rexall.

I've got a first draft prepared of my spreadsheet for Blue Friday. There are several items that are available at either store so I use those items to make sure I balance my purchases and get the extra spend $100 get 100AM at both Foodland and Sobeys. Now if I could only figure out what my Loaded threshold is I might be able to get a few more AM.

No Rexall for me today, just couldn't make it. Hopefully another double up will come around soon. I'll be trying for Blue Friday this week.

Edit: I did however use a Marble Slab Creamery coupon today, regular price is $5.99.

This Thursday Beauty event has been happening every week for about 2 months now and was a constant PIA for everyone, cashiers included! Someone finally managed to nail down a list via email with Rexall, I turned it into a document and attached it to the very bottom of the first post. Your decision to shop yesterday instead was EXCELLENT hunting!!!

BTW, there's no need to use a coupon but you really need to pay attention to your receipt BEFORE you leave the store in case you need to get it fixed, seems to cause no end of problems.

Quote just came in and we're thrilled! Once I get my lazy butt out of bed I'll be telling them to go for it! The math might not be good for everyone but based on the way we collect our miles this is FREE!

That math certainly works for me! I love FREE.
