Shop the Block 2019 -Bonus miles are POSTING NOW!

[mkmommy]

The Indigo gift cards. Can I buy online and then go immediately to the store and use?

Has anyone done the Global Pet Foods offer? I had my base miles post, but nothing else. There wasn’t anything on the receipt (I did see her scan the coupon) and the cashier told me it was a “back end coupon” that would show up later. Just seeing what everyone else’s experience is.

Just looking at my receipt, it says "Air Miles Spend $75 Promotion, Shop the Block get 20 Air Miles" then has my Air Miles number underneath it.

yes. You'll get an ecard that you can either print out or just have scanned from your phone.

And now it's time for the Duck to freak out over an online shopping transaction not working properly to trigger the coupon! Why, or WHY did i not take a screen shot of my ETSY basket before i completed the transaction???? I knew i was only paying once so figured it would be fine but NO, i get to the last page and it tells me that since i ordered from 2 stores i'll get 2 receipts Now to see if i can "pretend" to buy those things again and capture the final total...Nope that won't work since one item was custom made for me so listing as "sold" now.

Anyone else ever use ETSY for one of these promo and have it work out properly?

Anyone think this line on my one receipt will be enough for me to use if i need to fight for my miles (oh come on, not if but rather WHEN)

Ever since AM burned me for 1,000 points a few years back, I record all AM transactions with the free version of Active Presenter, and file the video away in case of future need. It's been invaluable a number of times when they (too often, I think) try to play their system failures against my word.

Yup it was a rookie move on my part and I'm NOT a rookie with online shopping!! I've been doing it since they opened the portal but I'm trying to do far too many things at once today and not much is actually getting completed

Just want to add in (if it was already mentioned - sorry) that fruit/veggie trays qualified for the Metro catering coupon. I ordered one pizza, but didn't want anything else from that hot section, but needed the trays for snacking. I scanned it, not really expecting it to work, but it did.

So that's two done on two cards. Long ways to go. lol

I wonder if their pre-made salads count too?

If you are getting them anyways, I would just try it. It seems like both hot and cold counters are working.

I just got shipping notification for one of the 3 things I ordered from Amazon so my order is split.
I think I may order $100 in gift cards from Indigo to have a back up order so I hopefully won’t have to chase down the STB offer.

Did you get the email confirmation of your order? Does it show one total for the entire order that is over $100? If so, then you're fine and there's no need to do any more shopping!! If you need to chase it down all you need to provide is the total that you see for your order, AM doesn't care how many shipments it took to get that to your house.

 

[Donald - my hero]

Because there seems to be a lot of confusion & frustration over the online shopping I think it's worth mentioning what the requirements are and what you need to be able to provide if you need to chase down the miles.

You will need to complete one transaction that is at least $100 after any discounts and before taxes & shipping.

Be sure to keep the email confirmation of your order that shows the total transaction cost, date & store name.

Shipping methods and the number of packages created by your order have no impact on your ability to get the miles, you just need to spend the $100 or more in one single transaction.

Just checked and there are a bunch of new items listed for LCBO, just in case you are looking for anything specific.

Placed an order at Bed Bath and Beyond on Friday for the Black Friday bonus and the AM's are in my account already. For those who are worried about a split order, I received an email from BB&B that an order has been shipped. This order does only contain one of the items I ordered. Judging from the posted AM's a split order isn't going to matter. You should get the AM's regardless. Now Amazon may handle things differently I suppose, who knows. All I can tell you is that my order is split and I got the miles.

29 Nov 19		BED BATH & BEYOND	1 REWARD MILE FOR EVERY $20		+5
29 Nov 19		BED BATH & BEYOND	5X YOUR REWARD MILES		+20
29 Nov 19		BED BATH & BEYOND	20X YOUR REWARD MILES		+95

Heads up.

The Rona paint STB promo code 1811 is not working online, I called Rona and they acknowledged that they know it is not working and said to have them enter the code when I pick up the paint in-store.

At our Metro, the salads had the fresh2go logo sticker on them and were part of [the day we went] the fresh2gp deal they were having that day.

Finally finished my account just now. Picked up some chicken for Sunday dinner. Will finish DH account tonight when we go to fill up the car. DS3 has Shell and Rexall left so that one will have to wait for the coupon on Wednesday before I complete Rexall. Shell will be the next time one of the cars needs gas.

This is the first time I have not done extra coupons (just in case). I feel that my shops so far will post correctly, eventually, given past experience and it's way too much work this year to do extras

I will go to Sobeys once the storm clears to do a weekly shop and do DS1 to help him out with his StB, Then it's back to me, myself and my airmiles for a while.
