Airmiles Armchair Chatter

[bababear_50]

When the offer says maximum one per receipt does that mean you need to buy one chocolate bar for more than $6.00? Or can you buy, say, 2 bars @ $3.00 each on the same receipt?

Hi Teresa
I've not done this so I am hesitant to say ...............
I think it means one offer per receipt.
Each receipt must have a total of $6 spent on chocolate.

I am going to guess and say you can by a couple of chocolate bars ..... like 2 Lindt chocolate bars @ $3.00 each total = $6.00 for chocolate purchase on one receipt for 3 Airmiles.

I think I bought a box of 25 mini chocolate bars ( Aero ,kit- kat, Coffee Crisp, Smarties) for Halloween at Giant Tiger last weekend ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I wonder if that purchase would have worked.


Good luck
Hugs Mel

It must total $6. So yes, you can buy number of bars that will total up to $6 or more.
If you are buying say a quantity that will equal $12+. Then split it into 2 receipts so that you can scan twice and earn twice. Make sense?

BTW…for the first time I’ve lost on an inquiry. I bought a case of Dr Pepper from Costco last week that said ‘Dr Pepper/Pepsico’ on the receipt. I didn’t get the miles for it. I had also bought pies and those were accepted immediately.

a few comments about the receipt offers, no order and no quoting cause I'm lazy!

Pay attention to the wording for each offer, few current examples of threshold spends that are worded differently
: eggs at least $4 on a carton of eggs, (maximum 1 per receipt) this means that if you buy 2 cartons of eggs that cost at least $4 only one of those will trigger the miles. Split your eggs into 2 transactions and both will work.

3 miles for every bottle of ketchup with no other limits, means you can buy 4 bottles of that crappy no name stuff on sale in one transaction and get the full 12 miles (bottom small print shows how many times you can get the offer)

Spend at least $6 on chocolate bars, (maximum 1 per receipt) you can buy however many bars of chocolate it takes to bring that total dollar amount OVER $6 (trust me, 5.99 won't make it past an inquiry ) I'm not sure if buying a box of chocolate bars will count here - depends on how it shows up on the receipt

Regarding the flash offers - you must do 2 things during the stated time frame to get the bonus miles, buy AND transmit the receipt.

I went into walmart to do my shopping today so I could scan the receipt since my cats eat friskies and it's got a lot of AM for buying the cases, I think I overwhelmed the AI that does the scan, it took awhile and then said it would be 3 days or something. I also got some frozen pizzas on sale, and a bag of halloween chocolate that I hope will count. But it's the friskies I want lol, 35 AM for the case I bought, plus some cans at 3 each up to 4 cans. I go through 3 cans a day for my guys so it adds up. But wow I remember why i don't like going in the store, it was people-y for me.

I also redeemed for $30 Disney GC, so that should get me 50 back, not much but a bit of a bonus back I guess?

My dog has a bad tummy this week, he got me up 3 times wednesday night to go to the bathroom, not fun. So rice, pumpkin and some greek yogurt seems to have fixed him back up. At least he didn't get me up the past two nights. He's annoyed I wouldn't let him eat much though lol. Seems to be better so we'll see how the weekend goes. I had tried a different food for him as his usual was out of stock everywhere, I think that's what caused it? I found his food today at walmart, even on sale, but they have changed it so now who knows. Just the size of the kibble seems to have changed, he still ate it and he's rather picky about his food. He'll eat other gross things but the wrong dog food? nope.

Thanks for the reminder @hdrolfe. I was going to pass that one by as there aren't many places to redeem. I'm going to do that now.

Not sure they had their algorithms set up well for the receipts offer $6 on chocolate bars. I bought 2 boxes of 130 Halloween size at Costco, showed as Nestle 130 CT on receipt. Did not recognize so I put an inquiry in.
I bought 3 king size bars at Safeway, showed as Mars King size and Bar Chunky King on the receipt but did not recognize so I put an inquiry for that as well.

I bought $4 worth of green onions at Walmart yesterday. Receipt shows “onions scal”…This is the first time they changed the description! Of course I knew it would not be accepted as soon as I looked at my receipt. Submitted an inquiry
