Airmiles Armchair Chatter

Does anyone know if you get air miles for getting a flu shot at sobeys or rexall? I know I got 5000 bonus points from superstore when I got my flu shot there

Does anyone have experience with purchasing merchandise marked as a reduced price for ONYX?

There's an item I'm interested in but wouldn't be able to order it until maybe Nov 27th, maybe the 24th. If my 800 AMEX air miles arrives then like they have the in past. I'm afraid it won't be around by then... Is there a time limit as to how long they stay on Air Miles? Or is it just until they are out of stock and remove it? It says NEW and showed up sometime in October. I don't remember when I first saw it.

I tried chatting AM but the rep said they cannot "check/see" how many items of something are in stock.

I was saving up for Universal Studios I know, but once I discovered I would be forced to book a flight along with the hotel, that got derailed.

I'm almost home but wanted to give a quick answer... yes, several times, no problem, just cause it's "on sale" has nothing to do with quantity.

Home now, here's more info you might find interesting
You should pay attention to the Deals of the Week that pop up every Monday -- we needed (ok, wanted) a sound bar and I did my research of all AM has and when the one i wanted popped up in there i snagged it! It looks like this currently

BUT here's what i actually paid!

Just planning my 10x shopping spree on airmilesshops... Does anyone know if we buy through Amazon but it's not shipped from amazon, if you still get the 1 am per 20$ spend? Example, buying a Ravensburger puzzle...ships from and sold by Englishpostbox UK. Does this get me airmiles if I purchase through the portal? Or zero airmiles?

Edited to add that it does NOT say "this item is only available through a third party seller", but it does say that it's not eligible for amazon prime (but it offers free shipping).

Rexall was offering 15 bonus airmiles if you signed up for their email to be notified when the shot became available. Unfortunately when I tried looking up page it is no longer available.

It should work. I have shopped twice on Blue Fridays and gotten all my points. I have one cashier point that out to me as well...but I do two separate shops...go to two different cashiers...and my points have always posted. That cashier was just a grumpy goose and trying to make her foul mood spoil over into your day

Oh I knew she was in a grumpy mood from the moment we wrenched our loaded cart into her lane. I remember feeling grumpy about cashiering when it was my job but I always reminded myself, "It's just scanning stuff! There's nothing personal to get grumpy about!" So I don't tolerate the attitude in other cashiers, if that makes sense?

But yeah, it was a slow time of day where most customers are buying 1-5 items and need no assistance. Then we come along with a massive cart, want to divide our transactions up, and are paying close attention to everything she does! And her manager had to open up a second lane for the other customers because nobody wanted to wait behind us. LOL Sorry cashier... today your job will involve scanning and lifting and doing some math, not talking to your coworkers while filing your nails or cleaning off your conveyor belts for the third time in 15 minutes...

I shop thru Amazon A LOT, love their customer service and their miles post the day i receive the shipping notice. You will definitely get your miles for that puzzle! Pay close attention to the terms involved with shopping at Amazon that I've put in the first post. Make good use of your wish list -- choose what you want and put it there NOT your cart until you are ready to actually check out, if you have stuff in your cart when you sling shot, you won't get miles. The only things that you won't earn miles on are listed in the first post as well.

Happy shopping!

Also spend $64 at Rexall and got 227 AM..and my usually grouchy cashier actually seemed excited for me. LOL!

Nope, but it would be nice --- and rather appropriate since that is my B-Day

I got my cards at the Shoppers in Barrhaven. It is supposed to be 8k points for 2+ cards worth $200 (or more), but they don't show up on the receipt.

Daughter received a Happiest Holidays promo in the mail for 30am wus $30 at Rexall every day until December 10. It's a personal offer. Used it today at Rexall with 110 LGO + 110 weekly + 30 personal promo card + survey coupon. So if anyone else gets it, it appears to be combinable.

I'm in Kanata, both Shoppers I went to have had Disney cards. Tomorrow is the last day. You just have to buy at least $200 on 2 gift cards, same or different types. Points should be posted by Nov. 17th.

10x Indigo.ca Shop is done! I scoped out what I was going to buy last night then processed it this morning. Used the gift card I just got at Rexall. It should only be 20AM total but that plus the bonus from the gift card gives me 60AM for $54 spent total.

No load 'n go spend and get deal for me this week. What the heck?
