Birt's just fine! Living the life of a house hippo (anyone remember that commercial from the advertising standards of Canada aimed at kids??) , we see him whenever we go to visit the girls.

OMG, so happy to see an early leak of the Metro flyer ( I went to glance at said Ice cream deal), they have MILK on sale! Don't care if it's got miles or not, I need some :D And our ham, and big bonus miles on yogurt I eat .. buy 3 @ 3.49 get 30 AM. Some kind of chicken wings too (or is it from Flamingos ) 2/$16 buy 2 get 50 AM

I actually joined the boards in 1997 -ish and then there was a crash that took the boards down, profiles were reset, posts lost etc. I was actively planning a trip at that point and then another in 1999 and ended up forgetting my password and they couldn't reset it so this persona was born! Had no idea it was that long ago but makes sense since we were planning a trip for our 20th anniversary, gawd, I'M OLD!!

You know that i absolutely LOATH spreading any rumours or posting speculations without full disclosure that it is strictly MY thoughts. Due to this i went straight to THE place for answers about any & everything regarding tickets, the thread created & maintained by Robo and monitored by a couple of CMs who actually work in ticketing and i found this answer, directly quoted from this post Ins & Outs of Upgrading Tickets The entire thread is excellent reading and a great place to look for answeres regarding tickets and if the answer isn't there, Robo responds within hours!

Upgrading to an Annual Pass (AP)
An upgrade to any level of Annual Pass follows basically the same rules as any other upgrade of MYW tickets.
You cannot combine the value of more than one ticket in order to upgrade to a singe new ticket or AP.

If the person who mentioned this is able to provide more details about how/when/where they did this it might add some credence to their claim but it's also possible that they had a CM who sprinkled a TON of Pixie Dust. Personally i wouldn't want to risk this massive leap of faith :P

Thanks @Donald - my hero - I know I can trust you for good advice! It sure seemed too good to be true.
 
Because I tend to do my best to make efficient use of my time I searched thru this thread to find the last post about using the double dip one day only coupon from Rexall and discovered it seems to be happening once a month, last one was May 14th.
ONE DAY ONLY bonus offer Wednesday June 12th

To play this game for maximum miles for your buck follow these tips:
  1. BOTH bar codes MUST be scanned, neither can be loaded to your card
  2. Politely ask the cashier to simply scan all coupons you have, let the system work it out.
  3. Coupons can be either printed or shown on a mobile device
  4. Since the offers are almost identical, be really careful that you get 2 different codes scanned
  5. If a coupon has trouble scanning from your phone try turning up the brightness and zooming in so the bar code is larger You can even try getting them to type in the bar code number, that will also work
  6. Depending on the store you might be able to use the survey coupon for $5.00 off when you spend $25.00 Link for that is HERE
Two separate coupons from 2 different sources
Coupon # 1 came from Rexall the barcode from this one is 417000051657
Link to the coupon is HERE

Thanks, I'm going to see tomorrow if the medical supplies I ordered last week came in. I can use 2 coupons!
 


Hi gang
Does anyone know if I can use a Vanilla Visa card (gift card) to buy products and groceries at Rexall and Sobeys?
Can I use it to buy another gift card?
Thanks

Just back from the east coast and looks like I need to hit the ground running tomorrow. Thanks to all of you here, after a quick read of the most recent threads I should be able to do that. 8 hours in a car without much moving and I think I could do with a pair of compression socks. I read about the double dip possibility a couple of days ago and was glad to see exactly how to accomplish that this evening. You guys are great. Thank you.

I don't know about purchasing another gift card with it, but I have used pre-paid cards to purchase groceries without issues.

I just finished using a prepaid Visa gc with $50 on it. I had no issues using it but Sobeys needed to know how much was left on the card.
 
a quick thank you to whoever mentioned checkout 51!

i just signed up and i already have a few approved rewards. there’s lots of stuff i would never buy, but a few options for things we use regularly. i’m excited to add this to my ring of savings!

Heads up, the load n Go coupon for Rexall today seems to be busted - it would not scan and inputting the numbers did not work. However the email from Airmiles about the RExall AM does work, and is a different code from the Rexall email/coupon direct, so I still managed my 200AM, it was just a bit of a hassle!
 
Thanks for the info and links for Rexall. I'm going to head out there today. We're out of eggs, cheese, milk, mouthwash and I need Dimetapp for my son. I came home yesterday after an exciting morning in Toronto to both kids sick. Ugh. My daughter didn't go to school yesterday and my son came home after his Science lab exam. We all slept in today.

Uh oh. I haven't left yet. I wonder if I received the e-mail. I'll have to check. Thanks for the heads up!

I don't see an e-mail from Air Miles about the offer. Ohh yay, my husband's e-mail as that! I printed it out. Thanks!!

By the way, I will post a photo here of that coupon. I'm just on the phone.

Can you give a bit more info please? What are the barcodes that DO work? I never did get an emaili from Rexall
 
If I understood correctly, she is saying:
- the coupon with the barcode ending in 1657 worked
- the coupon from the Air Miles APP with the barcode ending in 5171 did not work
- the coupon that Air Miles e-mailed with the barcode ending in 1688 worked (I posted a picture above)

Is that right Krista?
