Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[osully]

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.

Yep wouldn't work for me.. I even did some shopping at Sobeys last night and my usual 25% off eggs didn't work because their MyOffers were messed up

Ugh. My Sobeys shopped from last week just posted, and my load n go 65AM didn't post. It was on my receipt, but I don't know what I did with it! I've never had issues with Sobey's posting the same amount as is on the receipt Guess I need to go receipt hunting, hopefully it is in my purse.

I wonder if this is why my My Offer didn't post from last week too! I hope they sort this out!

Scrolling through Facebook before I head to bed and happened on a link for a contest! Do this little quiz, enter your airmiles number and you could win 10,000 miles!

I had this same issue so I called AM yesterday. Try scrolling all the way to the bottom of your transaction listing. The first part of my posting from Sobeys showed at the top of the page and then another part (same date Jun 29) posted at the bottom of the page below Jun 4. It makes no sense whatsoever but it's a glitch they are working on.

All my AM have posted they are just split up! Same happened to me with Metro and Rexall postings. Once something else gets posted it the original item (which was at the bottom of the page) pops back up to the top and joins its mates. Hope that makes sense.

My offers were back up and running when I checked a few minutes ago.

I did the survey also. I'm a wolf (didn't remember what it said about that).

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


Airmiles Shop Christmas In July

I took a look at this and was trying to decide if I could do 5 categories without overspending. Decided not likely, it would be a stretch. Then noticed there is no extra benefit to doing 5 categories, ends up at 100 airmiles per $50 spend, same as doing three categories. My plan is to do three categories for two airmiles accounts.

Wow, you are right, they are there! How weird! Thanks for that, now I don't have to stress about my receipt!!

I need to place an order at Amazon today as it is and I'm sure later in the month I'll need printer ink. So there's two. Hopefully I can find a 3rd but I will not be doing 5 shops either.
Also, I will only this on one card.

I'm the same. After doing some math and looking at my return yesterday from Rexall 4AM:$1 I think I will only do 3 of the 5 categories on this one and only because we usually make online orders of this sort anyway. (Staples, printer ink, Amazon, stuff DH has on a list, Lowes/RONA will online order and pick up in store). Only doing one card also.

 

[Pumpkin1172]

I will be doing three shops as well. I think 5 would be stretching my budget a little too much for my comfort.

 

[CanadianKrista]

I will likely do 3 as well - just did a Lowes order I will pickup, and we have an Amazon order we need to do. Might do a Children's Place order, or maybe get myself some new Keds.

 

[hdrolfe]

I won't be doing any lol. I hate using their portal for shopping... I spend more time chasing the AM than I do placing the orders! No thanks... Good luck to those that are choosing to shop though.

I just checked on my computer that I've been saving for on the airmiles site--GONE!
Almost everything has been updated and is a new product..................................
I am now back to saving 3,000 airmiles more to get to my target.
uck!!!

That is so frustrating! Two years ago I was saving for a laptop (for my son) and it disappeared just before I had enough. It never came back either. Then when I got close to my goal for my computer, they replaced it as well. I ended up ordering through the Personal Shopper program to get the computer I wanted.

Which one are you eyeing now?

 

[pigletto]

I don’t usually do the airmilesshops offers because they are so unreliable. However , I happened to be ordering $400 in vinyl plank flooring from Lowe’s today anway, I’m still not sure if I will hit the three offers. I don’t think I need to order anything else but I will take a look .
Same deal for Blue Friday. We actually do use a lot of Honey Nut and Multigrain Cheerios so I might be able to do a shop but nothing else is jumping out at me.

Rant coming up that's got nothing to do with anything here!
I chose to take the greyhound home instead of the GO train so I could sleep and get home earlier. The flippin thing stalled before we left the station and I chalked it up to a lousy driver... NOT! It has stalled repeatedly, the worst being while in the middle lane of the 401! He managed to wrestle it off to the shoulder and then tried again. Wherever it stopped so did the air conditioning and I can't stand the heat ... triggers my asthma and makes me light headed (one of the reasons we're going to Disney in January!) Finally made it to one of the commuter lots and after sitting here for 15 minutes I just got off! Called my hubby to come get me here since it will only take him about 15 minutes. I can see the darned thing off on the shoulder once again!).

On topic, no Rexall yesterday, I couldn't justify a trip and no Blue Friday cause we're going away for the weekend. Set my account to 100% cash so I can swap them for Disney giftcards using the "trick my mind into using the miles for groceries but pretend it's for the giftcards" mindset.

how awful! i hope you still have some ice cream in the freezer from the last promo...it sounds like you deserve a sundae!

edited to say: the blue friday flyer has some decent offers, but my problem is that i put together a list and it’s mostly junky/sugary foods. stuff we would eat if i buy, but that we wouldn’t necessarily seek out without the promo. do i do the fun thing, earning decent miles and yummy snacks, or the responsible thing and save my $ for some market goodies this weekend? that’s my current debate.
