Airmiles Armchair Chatter

Yeah an offer
Uhhhhhhhh NO thanks
Get 70
AIR MILES®
Bonus Miles


when you activate your offer and spend a total of $460
or more on your BMO AIR MILES Mastercard by February 8, 20221.​
 

My offer is pretty good. Get 100 AM when I spend $50 at Global Pet Foods, Foodland or Staples. That's easy enough. Does anyone know if they sell Disney GC's at Staples? I could get one at Foodland but Staples is 10 minutes closer.
 
I'm somewhat disappointed with Airmiles these days. I had done up a long list of items I could use but don't need at the moment for a Sobeys shop. After a few calculations I have decided not to do the shop. I was going to spend $89 on things I don't really need at the moment just to get 295AM. I have decided just to transfer $30 to my vacation fund and save myself the effort.

I think going forward I will do the bigger promotions and will pick up things I need if they have AM attached to them but I am becoming less engaged with the program. Hopefully this sentiment like Covid will soon pass.

I have done the same. Many times I have my Foodland offers and specials written down, but when I'm in the store, I weigh what the price is, how it compares to other brands, and is it worth it? Many times I leave the offer on the shelf. I need to be careful...my freezer is jammed so I'm doing an eat from the freezer, fridge and pantry month.
 
My new way of shopping for Airmiles (since Oct 2021) is ,mostly a quick shop for a Blue Bonus offer .
This is usually netting me about 95 to 100 airmiles a week.
Sometimes it's something I need or I share with my sons or it is a food donation for the food bank.
My limit is usually no more than 25$ a week. Food Bank is no more than 25$ per month.

Oh and I picked up the crackers today on the way home,,,25$ for 10 boxes =75 Airmiles.

Good News is Airmiles shipped :moped:my BBQ and it's suppose to arrive today.

I got a call from the hospital at 12:30 today asking if I could either head into the city right then or wait till next Friday since the tech is off due to a possible contact. Since I missed yesterday due to the freezing rain and then dumping of snow AND the fact that I had just spent an hour cleaning said precipitation off of the car I said sure! Gawd the roads were/ are a mess!

after I sat in the parking lot and checked out my offers for sobeys and found a ton of buy anything get 50 miles so off I went to snag some miles! I had the offer on both cards (4 times in one and 3 on the other 🤷‍♀️) but only had my wallet and phone meaning only the main card with me. I grabbed milk for myself, on sale AND 25 miles with 2 and Oatmeal for hubby 2/$7 buy 6 get 95 miles.
Total spent $51.23 snagged me 201 miles 🥳🥳🥳

I had to call to get the 50 miles but that took less than 5 minutes. Not a bad haul 🤗

My kiddo thought last night that today would be a snow day. So he was all set to not go to school... all day I got "come get me" texts and emails... but he managed to stay the whole day. I went to pick him up and he called just before I got there that he was walking home with friends.

Weather has been a bit crazy lately, we were supposed to get a bunch of snow but not much fell. I hope tomorrow isn't too cold, puppy goes for a haircut. I'm off until Tuesday! Long weekend :D

Haven't been getting as many AM myself, but slowly I will get some. I haven't needed gas as much as before, and it's so expensive now! Since I don't have a huge plan for anything, I'll wait and see what the next bonus boom is, try for that type of thing I guess.
 
Yep gas prices are nuts..... I have to get some tomorrow........................:(
Kids ..... sometimes they just shock us parents.
Have a great long weekend Hon!
Hugs
