Placeholder for general info on offers

BMO - spend $250 at partners and earn 100 miles. Opt in first either thru the app or website at any point before Sept 8th and spend the $250, no minimum purchase just meet the total.

AMEX - spend $100 at ANY stand alone grocery stores, not just sponsors. Can buy anything, even gift cards.

3 offers NOT sponsors .. do them all at one place if possible, Shell comes to mind

Yet another Placeholder!

Thanks for starting this. Maybe a new one starting will mean we get our AM from the last one. I suppose even though it's not a lot of AM it is a game to play for the next two weeks. Game on! I'm ready.

Thanks @Donald - my hero Jacqueline for all you do for us!!!

Your right for not overspending for a measly 10 dollar reward...but I can probably get a few miles between our BMO cc and shell at least...and maybe an airmiles shop with either Amazon or Sephora. I can ALWAYS find something to buy at Sephora lol It's my Kryptonite.

It's 7:48am and Bonus Boom hasn't gone live yet. Really! I want to make my grocery lists etc and plan my attack for the promotion. I guess I'll try again closer to 9am (banking hours )

Correction: not up on website but they are on the app. On the website the Bonus Boom link doesn't work but they are under "Offers".

 

[Donald - my hero]

This will be a huge BUST for my household! I will easily do the BMO offer, i can spend that easily over 2 weeks on groceries. Only offer i might do at Sobey's is the ice cream but i don't think it's on sale. Shell offers don't line up for me, the only possible is the lottery and the current deal at Metro is better return for less cash outlay, only need to spend $10 and get 15 miles compared to spending $20 and getting 5 miles!!

 

[ottawamom]

After reviewing the offers I'm finding this one difficult to do as well (without purchasing things I don't regularly use). I'll do the Sobeys and Foodland AM Cash offers (3 cards) picking up regular groceries. Sobeys, I'll also pick up the pogos and reeses puffs treats (2 cards, 1 offer each) DS will eat both of those. Third offer on my card will be BMO $250 on my card.

Most of the offers out there are just things I don't use anymore or don't need to spend money on.

I need gas by the end of the month for another promo so I hope that'll work for one or two of these. Not sure about the BMO offer, I'm trying not to use my card but we'll see. Could also do the airmilesshop offer I think, if I read it correctly any way. Back to school stuff and fall/winter clothes to purchase for kiddo. Still wish the last one had posted before starting this one. And I miss the bigger promos

 

[juniorbugman]

I will be able to do all 3 Sobeys offers on my card so that is one done and probably Foodland and Sobeys cash in 95 miles one on my Mom's card and my sister will do the Shell gas so we will have both cards done.

For me...I'm don't know if I'll

1 - BMO cc...We may or may not hit the 250.00 at sponsors. We will see how that one goes. I'm not going out of my way to make that one happen. If it does with our regular spending...great!!!
2 - Safeway....will probably purchase the ice cream treats using 10.00 of my cash miles. I'll buy them as a treat for the guys for coffee break one day. Would this count as 2 offers completed? I'm curious if that would work.
3 - Shell - as we are travelling to the city next weekend...so that's another tank of gas. That's an easy 30L+ I could also pick up some lotto as well and sneak it into one the cards for dh's birthday extravaganza!!!

Their wording is 3 different bonus boom offers....NOT 3 separate sponsors. So I should be able to use my cash miles to pay for ice cream We all could use an ice cream break during the day.

Edited to add
I miss the old promos where it was 2,000 AM or even 1,200. But on the other hand...with these smaller promos, I'm also collecting lots of miles this year with them. So that's maybe the trade off. For the most part, they seem to post correctly. Maybe they are finding they have less people calling in to " chase" miles that maybe they actually didn't qualify for.

Yes it will count as two separate offers. I just did a similar thing at Sobeys.

Don't you hate the offers at Sobeys for example that say that the offers won't show up on the receipt and will post 4-6 weeks later? I just shopped at Sobeys and came home and noticed that my spend $100 get 5x miles hadn't posted so I checked the website and they show up later. Phooey.
I will have to get my spreadsheet started again to keep track of these offers.
Well at least I have done 2 offers on my card and 2 offers on my Mom's card so just 1 more offer for each card. We can do the Foodland offer this weekend and be done with this promo.

Two cards completed . One last one waiting to spend enough over the next two weeks on groceries and maybe gas.

I read the BMO terms and this time it looks like we could purchase a GC and it will count. I will only do it if I'm close and time is running out. Strategic shopping!

Buying a GC is always my go to with the BMO offer. Metro is two minutes away so I pop in there. No other way I could spend 250 at a AM's sponsor without that little trick. It's a great trick.

For anyone else who was getting royally annoyed trying to find the offers in one spot try THIS LINK FOR ALL THE OFFERS

 

[Donald - my hero]

Just looking over the offers and noticed that AMEX has a threshold spend this time around as well and it's EASIER if you ask me with a lower outlay of $$!!!!

You only need to OPT in thru the website or app BEFORE you make the purchase and then spend $100 at ANY stand alone grocery store to get 50 miles. No restrictions on what you buy and doesn't need to be a sponsor store. Suggestion might be to buy a gift card for an online store and then use it to complete that offer as well.

Looks like cumulative purchases work too! Great to make the small grocery pop-ins work toward a larger goal.
