Airmiles Armchair Chatter

Did the Rexall spend $30 get 100 AM's. Spent $35.64 after tax and received 121 AM's. They have a buy $15 in their brand of vitamins get 20 AM's as well as buy one get one half price. I need a few of the smaller sizes for travel so stocked up on those. I don't do Rexall for AM's as much as I used to but this one was an okay shop.

Back from Blue Friday at Safeway! I ended up getting 24 boxes of oatmeal and 16 of the Oasis juices (8 orange & 8 apple) for the food bank, which feels good, especially during this cold snap we're in. My spend excl. tax and deposits was $186.10, and earned 1139AM. Combined with the 204 AM from Rexall yesterday, I'd say it's (finally) been a good AM week!

ETA - I also 'earned' a 0.07 off per litre of gas!

Did my first Blue Friday in a long time! Spent $168 and received 448 AM. Still debating on going to Rexall this weekend. It's bitter cold and I'm tired of going outside lol.

Just got a notification from Purolator that they tried to deliver my tickets! I JUST ordered them the other day. Says they left a delivery notice on how to retrieve my package. Hopefully I don't have to go far to get them.

My Blue Friday shop - $110 and 372 miles. I did have to throw some non BF food in, we are getting a big snowstorm this evening in South Eastern Manitoba (10-15 cm), so might not get out for our Superstore shop tomorrow.

ETA- I also got a 5¢ off gas coupon!

I did Blue Friday in Stittsville/Kanata - Terry Fox store has limits on most things including only 8 oatmeal so ended up going to Stittsville one. Three loads each barely over $100 to get the coupon. Did 1930 AMs today and all stuff we use anyways.

I stopped on the way home and got what I could carry (I take the bus and the wind is insane today!) so didn't do great but spent 78 and got 178 so not horrible and all stuff I would normally use

More Blue Friday reports, I love reading how well everyone is doing.

 

[AngelDisney]

I did Blue Friday too! Will donate all the oatmeal. Spent $123 got 420AM with my load n go of getting 45 AM for spending $115. Half of the stuff is not BF items but they are on sale. I am a happy camper!

 

[Canadian Harmony]

I need to do a BF shop, and totally forgot my reusable bags at home (of course), and I have rehearsal tonight, so I have to get what I can on the way home after work, and do a 'regular' shop tomorrow. Naturally, there's supposed to be one last snowstorm hitting our area tonight too... Arg!

Went with big kid after work with his card . I can’t shop with a 17 yr old growing boy . I aimed to hit $135 bc he had a spend $135 get 50 am load and go ended up spending $160 because apparently we needed two bags of marshmallow Easter bunnies and similar crap . $160 spend and netted him 520

 

[Days In the Sun]

Just back, I take forever, I know many of you get in and out in no time. Our "Ottawa group" and some others here I'm sure are great at Disney rope drop as well!

Anyway, I did 2 $100 shops, total $201 with 859 airmiles. 600 airmiles from 24 boxes of oatmeal (the Dinoeggs went into the food bin at the front of the store, used to be my son's favourite so hopefully another child will love them as well). No other Blue Friday items but was very happy with the shops, lots of mushrooms ($1 instore special), frozen vegetables $1.99 and organic section items. Also trying out the Emma olive oil on for $4.99 (half price) from the front page. We usually stick to Bertolli.

My friend was there and they offered to do bulk orders for us for Blue Friday if we contact them at least 48 hours in advance. Just fyi!

Those lucky food banks in Kanata benefitting from the Stittsville/Kanata shoppers.

This morning (8am) when I was in Greely at Foodland there was a mother doing her Blue Friday shop with a child under 2. I meant to catch up to her to congratulate her multi-tasking ability. I Blue Friday shop solo, don't know how she did it. Cashier told me she got 1100AM. Way to go (if you're reading this).

I'm not sure if those offers stack, Mel, but I would imagine they do! If you have a BMO Air Miles credit card you would get an additional 3 cents off. I know for sure the Sobeys Shell coupon and the BMO card stack!

So I did the Blue Friday shop today - spent $242 and got 749 air miles. Got the oatmeal and am giving 4 to the food bank and keeping 4 for me. I found the basic quick oat packages and bought them so I can make my own flavours. Most of my items were the Blue Friday items. Had a spend $125 get 40 and used the spend $100 get 100 miles so I think I got a good haul.
