Airmiles Armchair Chatter

FYI I was chatting to my Shell guy and he said that he's expecting the 10x miles for in-store purchases promotion to be back around the beginning of March (he was estimating the 6th). Planning to stock up on some gift cards when that promo's back!

Also, vistaprint.ca is having a sale right now where you can kids' tshirts printed for $9. I figure I couldn't make any myself for much less than $7 (assuming I didn't screw up and have to do everything twice). Plus they're 5x AM right now through airmileshops.ca, so I'm getting a few of my trip tshirts printed right now. Figure I'll save money and get miles.

Oooh I didn't know you could get air miles through vistprint! I always forget to go through the air miles website first. Making a note of this as we will be using vistaprint for our wedding invites. Thanks for the tip!!

Again taking this off-topic, how happy are you with the t-shirts you have had printed through VistaPrint? We used them for our Christmas cards this year for the first time and were really pleased, but never thought about getting t-shirts there and now I am curious... Any suggestions based on previous experience?

Haven't tried yet! I've only ever used them for Christmas cards, but I always love those. I will let you know!
 
Lots of good deals this week at Sobey's. Check out the flyer on Save.ca. Here's hoping the ones I earned last week come through today!

Great, I took a quick look and didn't see a ton for me, so I am hoping I will see more on closer inspection! I am in Ontario, are you somewhere else with a different flyer?
 
But it looks like Rexall has the spend $50, get 100 AM (on anything in store), so will try to see what else I may need there, too!
 
Re Sobey's: there is a gift card for La Senza $50 get 60AM, Stock up on toilet paper Compliments 24 rolls get 25AM, compliments fabric refresher and bleach (both) get 20AM plus I usually shop the Meal for under $25 on the back page (50AM). I'm in Ontario.
 
I wonder how much the our compliments TP (24 rolls) at Sobeys is.
I think it's time for me to stock up again. I'm good for 100 points,maybe a few more.
Happy shopping everyone!
Hugs Mel

My tshirts arrived already (I ordered them on Tuesday). They look great. The tshirts are nice and soft (I ordered the slightly more expensive soft ones) and the designs are sharp. The colours are a teensy bit muted on some of them. They do run small, though, so order up a size if you're choosing between two sizes.

TP (24 rolls) is $14.99 at Sobey's. It's a quilted 2 ply paper.

Thanks for the price on the TP

I am now receiving special coupons directed for me from Rexall
I think I will wait until Monday when I can use the spend 30 dollars and get 40 bonus airmiles
This is the first time I've received an email like this one.

Hugs Mel
 
Rexall is getting a little cheap with those emails. Up until the beginning of February the emails were spend $30 get 50AM. I used to go and pick up milk, bread and cheese plus something drugstore related that we need to get to the $30
 
I spent $96 after tax at Sobey's today and got 170 airmiles. This was a combination of in store/loaded from the website/mailed coupons offers. Magically they all appeared on the receipt this time!
Then it was off to Rexall where I spent $62 after tax and ended up with 107. So $158 spent, 277 airmiles and I am almost at my goal.
 
Pigletto, I know it may be hard to tell but let me know when your Peperidge Farm bonus miles show up in your account. I know it may be another week or two but mine haven't shown up yet and if they don't when you have received yours I will be back to the store asking for them to be added manually. My AM all went well this week at Sobey's too. I picked up the 50 AM meal on the back of the flyer, they were out of the apples but allowed me to substitute another type of apple and manually added the AM.

I will let you know as soon as they post. It should be simple to tell in this case because I am waiting for 170 to post from my Sobeys shop this weekend, and those bonus points. I'm not expecting anything else and I am watching closely so I can order that ticket.:goodvibes
 
perhaps discussed here already, but too many pages I do not want to scroll through.

I applied for the Airmiles World Elite M/C from BMO. It does have a restriction based on your income and a yearly fee of $120.

We received 1000 airmiles after our first purchase and another 2000 airmiles after spending $3000 in the first 3 months. My son needed his wisdom teeth pulled, so $1800 in spending was already accounted for. With groceries, gas and restaurant visits we reach our goal in 6 weeks.

I will be cancelling the card in about 6 months ( as I already have the card) and then wait for another special to be offered. I have done the same thing for American Express.

VERY fast way to accumulate miles and not spend lots of $$
