Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[hdrolfe]

I stopped at Pharmasave and spent just over $20 but my old eyes picked up the wrong vitamin D, I meant to get the 2500 iu and got the 1000 instead, oh well, I guess I'll just take two a day instead of 1. I thought it looked suspicious but seemed a good price lol. Added some ginger gravol for the kid and voila, $23 before tax.

And all my offers are gone so it better have worked because I do not shop there unless there's a good bonus off.

Stopped by Pharmasave and the machine would not take my Airmiles card,,, then the blasted machine froze and wouldn't give me a receipt.
Not sure I will be getting the 60 airmiles.

It's been one of those weeks ,,,my car needed more repairs ,,,It was suppose to be a lets wait till the Fall repair bill ............. just under 700$ ,,,
Last week I paid over 2,600.00 for repairs.
She better last a few more years at this rate.


Edited :
to add it seems the whole system is down for Airmiles.

I hope I get the AM, they did scan my card but it showed the 0 AM earned on the receipt so fingers crossed. Ugh.

Had to do my transaction twice, including refunding the first one as the air miles card scanned but wasnt on the receipt. Did the whole thing again and it worked. Strange day in AM land!

I guess I’m sweating it out tonight. I just booked to go on the Magic next week. After way too much chatter about flights I decided to book Westjet to get there and Air Canada to come home. AC is the earliest flight we can comfortably make. Used DD’s AM for the southbound flight, no problem. Then I log out and back in to my account to book the return flight. Everything is fine, all info filled in and credit card. I click pay (or whatever it says). I then get a blank screen with one sentence on it saying to copy down the reservation number and that I should have more info within 24hrs If that doesn’t go through I’m going to be ripping mad. The cost is significantly higher for one way flights. Basically I’m spending an additional 2500 miles so that I don’t have 8 hours to burn.

That's exciting though, a cruise next week!? I have never booked that last minute I am sure your flights will work out, AC needs some time to get things back on track but I believe they said it would all be back to normal in a week?

The price was really good. 5 night cruise for $2045. DD has friends onboard so I’m hoping we get the VIP treatment that I’ve become accustomed to Joking ! She is excited about sailing as a guest. I had to laugh, last night we spent about 3 hours getting everything organized and in the midst of it she says…OMG, I can go first. As a crew member she has access to most guest areas but always has to allow guests to go first.

I’m not worried about AC getting back to work but am worried about getting the confirmation. It occurred to me to me this morning that the blank screen/message might just have to do with the strike. Perhaps AM was reviewing bookings before confirming them???? I would just like to know now because I would still be within the 24hr cancellation period so I could cancel and rebook RT on WJ. I’ve checked my email 10 times since 6am

So I have a question for you PetSmart shoppers. I need another shop for my 3 online shop bonus as neither my Michaels or Lego shops have posted yet and I would rather have everything settled and not have to fight for miles. I was thinking of ordering a few gifts for my nephews dog but my question is - if I shop and pick up in store does the shop count? I know that Best Buy doesn't work that way but Staples and Michaels do count.
Thanks

WOW! That is amazing. I'm going to look on the weekend and see if I can come up with a decent price for late 2026 or early 2027. I'm doubting it but we shall see. Right now we have DR booked for Dec and D-I-L is booking us for early Feb in the DR as well......but I do miss cruising.
You and DD have a blast! Oh, and we will need a trip report on your return.

Yes it does. That's the only way I shop there these days. I've had good luck with my AM always posting. Some others have reported having issues with Petsmart so I guess it might depend on the store. Mine usually post to my account within 2-3 days.

I ordered a few things from Staples in the past through Airmileshops and have been able to pick things up in store and have them count towards Airmiles. My most recent order I had to have shipped because one of the items I wanted needed to come that way.

Definitely counts. We always pick up in store at Petsmart and have never had an issue with AM posting.

So I contacted Airmiles regarding this offer and they said my inquiry would be passed along.
So I just logged in again after clearing my browser which is their standard line for every time they have Tech issues and now there is no longer any offer.

Sorry guys.
They did give me 50 Airmiles for the Pharmasave issues I had on Aug 19th and advised I could claim Missing Miles in 2 months.
We did discuss the recent changes to the Receipt Airmiles collecting and I shared some of our members dissatisfaction.
Lets hope they are listening to their members.

Have a good Day
Hugs Mel

I'm still waiting on my 2 AM from pharmasave, I'm guessing they will never arrive and I'll also be out the 60AM for that offer very disappointing as I only shop there for the bonus, I could get the same thing elsewhere with less of a hassle. Any way. At least it's almost the weekend!

I had opted in and just got an email that says ooops we had an issue and bring your receipt to the store.

 

[ottawamom]

I've never seen them send out a note like that before. I guess they are aware they have issues and that people aren't happy about it.

And sadly I didn't get a chance to shop that day. We had shopped the day before and we weren't going back to that area on the Tuesday.

 

[bababear_50]

So who knows
I went back to Pharmasave this afternoon and they had my receipt under the cash drawer. They returned everything on my receipt ,,then recharged me for the items.
The 2 Airmiles quickly posted plus the pharmacist gave me an extra 5 Airmiles.
the 50 is from my conversation with Airmiles this morning. Who knows if I'll get the 60 from the offer.

 

[Donald - my hero]

this should make all the pharmasave shoppers really happy! Spend $10 and get 95 miles, essentially free stuff!

The terms suggest it might be targeted but I found it just hanging out in the app

 

[bababear_50]

I found it on the APP.
I saved it then logged into my online account and it is under saved offer.

I'll give it a go.
Thanks for posting J.
