Airmiles Armchair Chatter

Started my DS's as well today but got cut off by the weather. Will get most of it finished next week and then it's a wait game to use the "use 95 Cash miles" promotions to finish it up.

So I was at Sobeys this morning and noticed they had new AM cards, so I filled out an enrolment form for DH and got handed a hard copy card. Now I just have to cross my fingers that the form gets sent in/validated in time! They said I could use it right away but it would take a few weeks before I could "see" the card active online...

O/T has anyone gotten the Shoppers Optimum points from a couple of weeks ago when you got points for gift cards?

I was told the points would show by Nov17.

Could someone tell me what the minimum spend was through AirMilesShops for the 50 bonus miles if you made a purchase by Nov 9th? I'm thinking $20, is that right?

Earned a few more AirMiles from our local Fountain Tire when we switched over to the winter tires

Yeah it was $20 before shipping costs / taxes etc.

Hoping they do 15x miles on AirMilesShops next weekend! Could really use some new bras from La Senza and work on 2 more of the 3 purchases needed for 150 bonus AM for ShopTheBlock!

I also received one of the emails from airmiles to earn 250 AM at a partner by Nov 30 for bonus AM. Do you think that would include the MC and AE airmiles that post to our account each month?

OMG guys, I got the best score EVAH, and you're the only ones who will appreciate it!

So Friday, as you know, I managed to save 594 AM by getting my next 5DPH due to the Canadian offer.

On Saturday, I went grocery shopping and though I didn't need to get more AM, old habits die hard, right? I had a coupon for 45AM when I spend $225, and was about $5 short. The cashier said, "No, you have $221," and I showed her the coupon and said, "But I need $225 for the 45 airmiles." She said, "Oh, I can do better than that..." and showed me the ONE DAY ONLY AM voucher - spend $100 and get 150AM, spend $200 and get 400AM!! It was their 40th birthday celebration that day and was good for only Saturday! I had totally missed it when looking at their flyer!

So for $221 I received 536AM! I won't have enough AM by the time we leave in a month, but that's a great head start for plane tickets in October when I go back again.

Can someone tell me if we can buy a sport Chek gift card at sobeys and use the STB spend $100 and get 60 AM? Would it count for one of the 7?
Thanks

No, adding a gift card to your transaction won't count towards threshold spend offers. There are a lot of us who wish it would though!

I think i only have one more STB offer to redeem - so excited!!
I have a question though about the emailed offer:

Get 125 Bonus Miles
Collect 250 Miles at any AIR MILES Partner by 30 November and get 125 Bonus Miles!*

Does this mean overall collect 250 AM or do i have to get 250 at one AM Partner?

Thanks everyone

Question - you got emailed offers for STB? How did you manage that?

That's fantastic! I wish I had seen that in the flyer. Are you in Ontario?

I don't believe this was posted already.

Air Miles' Black Friday is up to 50% off select items starting Friday at 12 AM. (I hate these staying up to midnight deals... sigh.. wry grin)

Their website shows a sneek peek of 6 items.
