Airmiles Armchair Chatter

As @bababear_50 pointed out above you can pick up M&M frozen foods at some locations and I believe the prices are the same as they are in the stores so that's a massive win-win if you can find products you would eat.

That's true. I keep forgetting about M&M's. Thanks for the reminder.

I ended up at Shoppers and Loblaws today however. No miles for me.

I find that Safeway and Sobey's post on Thursday of the following week. So for example, If I shop at Safeway today, the air miles will post to my account next Thursday, August 11th.

Good luck!

My Rexall had half the M&M freezer on sale, no idea as to whether the prices are good or not.

Back from Rexall - spent $56.65, and earned 212 AM. We're going to Mexico in November, and the Pepto-Bismol To Go pocket tabs were $5.00 off so I grabbed the last pack. I also picked up a pack of Neutrogena face wipes (target L&G offer), paper towels and razor blades (usually don't buy at Rexall, but also $4.50 off). So today's shop will put me close to 18,500 air miles.

We're planning on WDW in Oct. 2020 for my oldest DD's 30th. I have enough for 7 day passes for DH and I (planning to add park hoppers when we get there), plus two one-day-two-park USO tickets. If I manage to get enough AM's by August/September next year, I'll probably buy tickets for the MNSSHP as well.

I really hate to have to pass on Rexall today but I've had a crazy day and I just don't think I have the energy to go out tonight. Making the $50 might be a stretch anyway.

ditto! well, sort of.

this morning i thought i would make it. i finally looked up the location closest to my new home. but the kiddo has some molars on the way, and he’s having a rough go. so instead of rexall, we spent the afternoon at the spray park. he’s gotten brave enough to walk around by himself, which makes my heart beam.

best 200 miles i’ve “spent” (well, not earned, but still)!

Time for Wednesday flyer updates. Links are current in the first post now. Here's ones not already shared above

Only thing of real interest to me is the butter on sale at Metro for $2.99 and the milk that is on sale for $5.49 buy 2 get 15 AM, it even includes Lactose-free and I'm going thru a LOT since i discovered how easy it is to make my own yogurt that's safe for me to eat!

Well I lied. I decided to skip dinner and go to Rexall. It actually turned out to be a good idea because there is a Sobeys across the parking lot so I went there too and bought some meat and earned 18 miles. Rexall though....why is that last $5 or $10 difficult to find. I circled the food isle like I was doing recon. Ended up finding some individual M&M pizzas for $1.99 so I grabbed 3 of those and made my $50. I'm pretty sure the cashier had seen the double coupons a few times before because she didn't even blink and she said I made it super easy.

@marchingstar how old is your wee one now? When did he become old enough to walk???? Sheesh, seems like he was just born.

Well I didn't make it to Rexall, didn't have the money any way (paid off Disney last week so until next pay day I am on budget lock down). Had to head to my parents to pick up kiddo, took the dog for the ride and he was well behaved at their place. Now we are off and have 23 days to fill! Luckily I got Calypso tickets through airmiles so we have one fun activity planned. Tomorrow kiddo needs a haircut, then we'll go to a beach maybe and then he wants to try making ice cream. At least I don't have to get up early! Hopefully next week I'll be able to get some airmiles.

241 am for a $65 shop. 200 for the coupons and 30 for vitamins with a few extra l-n-g. I was trying to keep it close to $50 when I went down the m&m isle. Got a chicken/bowtie pasta/veggie meal kit. Was really good - $16 fed me and my boys with enough for lunch tomorrow.

So, 304 of the 404 AMs from Rexall posted on my account this morning. Wonder where the other 100 is. They were all on my receipt.

Okay, I guess it wasn't you I saw wandering around. Someone else was there trying to get their money's worth looking at the M&M stuff at the same time as I was.

@bababear_50 Thanks! That's exactly what has happened!

Anyone try to get an Onyx ice cream yesterday at Marble Slab Creamery?

I took my daughter last night after a class to be told the promo ended July 30 not July 31. The coupon I printed out said by July 31 but they wouldn't budge. My son went yesterday as well, different location and used his fine.

Ended up paying for the ice cream, I wasn't impressed.

Thought I'd mention that Staples carries Rexall giftcards.

Last week I received a weekly BMO credit card offer ending tomorrow, 50 airmiles when you charge $50 to credit card instore at Staples, Global Pet or Lowes. I thought I'd end up getting a Disney giftcard at Staples but since I was shopping at Rexall this week it seemed to make sense to get it instead (I used it yesterday).

They did have Disney giftcards, no Shell (only Esso and PetroCanada) but they also had Sobeys.

My BMO offer last month was one week ahead of some others that posted about it so I would imagine some people may get a similar offer this week. Email came on the Saturday afternoon (rather random).
