BONUS BOOM


VERY Basic info -- we'll need to help each other out this promo, just keeping info in one spot


  • Runs for 3 weeks : March 25th - April 14th
  • Final BIG-ish bonus: 95 miles which equates to $10 cash, don't over spend!
  • Total offers to be used: 3 coupons/offers doesn't matter if they're all from one partner or not, just use 3 offers
  • Watch the dates: not all offers start or end at the same time
  • Print out any offers you use & keep receipts/emails in case you need to follow up

Threshold Offers from credit cards:
Mastercard -Spend $350 at Partners get 50 miles
AMEX - Spend $100 at ANY stand-alone grocery store (doesn't need to be an Airmiles partner) get 25 miles. You can buy anything you want at a store that has groceries as it's main business so places like Walmart don't count but Longos does.

Please follow these steps after you have downloaded the Shell app, registered for a Shell account, linked your AIR MILES Account (if desired) and set up one or more payment methods:
1. Tap 'Shell EasyPay' from the home screen of the Shell app
2. Tap 'Pay at the Pump'
3. If you are located at a Shell Station that is very near to another Shell Station, you may need to confirm which Shell Station you are at
4. Enter the pump number that you are parked at; this may be located above the pump or on an adjacent canopy column
5. Select a car wash if available at the Shell Station you are at and desired
6. If you have any AIR MILES Cash Miles, tap 'Use' to apply them towards your purchase
7. Confirm all other details are correct and authorize payment
When payment is authorized, please put your mobile phone away prior to starting to refuel your vehicle.

I do need a car wash so I'd like to try this.
If anyone who has tips please let me know.

****** Shell Offers must visit web site to opt in (complete).

Ok Edited to add:
Maybe old fashioned but I hate having any form of financial info on my phone ,,,what if I lose it?

Thanks, Mel. I'm so disappointed that the ONLY Shell is the Easy Pay App. I tried to set up Samsung Pay and none of my (very well used and mainstream) credit cards were accepted on the phone. Maybe my phone isn't up to date enough? I've had it a couple of years, now.

I hate the Tim's RRRRollUpTheRim on the app. I haven't visited once, even though I did download the app.

For those using airmilesshops....watch the date. It doesn't start until Monday!
 
This one I can probably get 3 offers done easily: Shell easy pay, Safeway use 95 cash miles and then between Safeway and Shell should be able to do the BMO spend $350 at partners. Although this does mean I need to hang onto my Safeway gift cards bought with last weeks offer and use MasterCard instead until I hit the $350.
 
I've used EasyPay at the pump a few times since the pandemic started, I like it but sometimes my internet on my phone is irritating (crappy provider, come on two years of contract!) In any case, I guess I don't worry about that stuff, I have all kinds of things on my phone lol... probably not the best security :)

And, I might be able to get 3 on this one! BMO, Shell & Children's Place, or possibly the airmilesshop online. I think I'm going to order something small for the current online promo so may not want to get anything else online thru there by April 14.

Shell update:
So if you do not have an i phone this won't work.
I have an Android.
So no Shell for me.

I have it on my android phone, the app that is... I see the link is to the Apple store but it's available on Android as well, no opt in required either on those.

Samsung Pay works well with American Express credit cards, just in case that's helpful!

Also for the base Samsung Pay offer, it's used just to scan the code for your Air Miles card rather than paying with a credit card.
 
I *might* be able to do the Bonus Boom on three cards with minimal outlay:

Card 1: Sobeys - use 190, Jean Coutu - use 190, IGA - use 95
Card 2: Sobeys - use 190, Jean Coutu - use 190, Shell Easypay (stacking with like 3 other offers including the Go+ promo for this week)
Card 3: Sobeys - spend $100, Sobeys - mayo, Metro - buy 3 products

Hoping to do a 4th card but cards 3 and 4 only have Dream Miles so that limits options...
 
Sobeys Bonus Boom pricing

Peace Tea
buy 2 get 20 airmiles
each can is $1.29
(bought Cheeky Cherry & Sno Berry)

Knorr Sauce / Gravies
buy 5 get 20 Airmiles
each pouch is $2.29

Magnum Ice Cream
Buy 2 boxes get 25 Airmiles
regular price advertised was $6.99 on freezer door ,,,
but I got it on sale for $4.99 a box

* All Airmiles posted on the receipt

So 65 Airmiles
+ 95 Bonus Boom Airmiles
= 160 Airmiles.

You only need to use 95AM Cash at Sobeys. Don't spend those miles unnecessarily.
 
I went to Sobeys this morning and am now 2/3 done Bonus Boom. Picked up the Peace Tea and used AM cash to pay for things (95AM only). I will go to Foodland next week and use another 95 AM Cash there and will have completed the promotion on three cards with minimal cash outlay.

This morning, at Sobeys, I was also able to use DS spend $50 get 50AM loaded offer and complete an email offer of my own for 95 AM.

All in all a good morning of hunting.
 
Has anyone received or asked AM about the last Bonus Boom 95 AM posting?
 
My CHAT asking that question

Samantha:
"We have been advised that they will be posted before the end of April.
1:16 PM "
Taking their time on this..................................:(

Many of us are waiting on Staples & Shell airmiles to be posted tooo!
