Airmiles Shop the Block 2018 - BONUS MILES POSTING NOW

[ottawamom]

Samsung offer. I read elsewhere that Airmiles had issues with the way Samsung posted this. Everyone who got 50 AM will be getting an additional 25 AM in the next few days. At least that is what someone else was told.

Well. Got the children's place order. Jeans don't fit him. I want to exchange them but am worried it will impact the AM and STB. So I may have to do another shop there just in case. Skinny kid is apparently not as skinny as he was I guess! Or jeans fit totally differently than sweat pants do

 

[kitntrip]

Uugghhhh!! Did my Children's Place order yesterday. Got an email today that part of my order was cancelled. I'm 2 bucks short of meeting the $55 spend.

I was counting on someone else to be told

Here's the T/C from the Samsung offer



The extra 25AM will come because you did the link of your AM between Nov 15-26. Now if my 50AM would only be posted I could breathe easier. By the way someone else also posted that they deleted their AM # before StB and added it to their account again. They just received the 50AM yesterday (additional 25 to come).

I was literally going to post about this exact thing. 15min ago I bought the Jacob Creek 750ml Char that has the 7AM bonus as part of STB. This wine cost $11. I swiped my AM but it shows AM received as zero. I asked the checkout lady and she explained that you get 7AM only on top of any others earned, and because I didn't spend at least $30 in one transaction, I get nothing. She didn't know what STB was. This was Hazeldean LCBO in Kanata.

The coupon does have a vague comment about spending a qualifying amount

I check LCBO site - it says you get 1 AM every $30 cumulative spend over a monthly period.

So I can take this bottle back and have a redo if I want, but suddenly to get this on each card becomes min $60 spend which I prob won't do

She is wrong. My receipt said nothing but I got 7AM the very next day!

Rexall spend $40 STB coupon starts Monday (Dec 3) and goes til Dec 13! Might want to hold off on a weekend shop if you’re doing that one

I got in under the wire and completed the Rona offer for my card this evening. I got a new mop head , salt for the driveway, and special ice melting stuff for the back stairs that is safe for my dogs paws. They were all things I needed and I’m happy to have another offer done. Then I went to Sobey’s and used cash miles to pay for our Christmas tree. Our Sobey’s always has very nice real trees at Christmas. Not a STB offer but it was great to get that done and pay with mostly cash miles.

So that’s four STB offers on my card finished, and three on dh’s . I don’t think we will even bother with DD’s Card. I’m having a hard enough time doing seven offers on our cards. We don’t have the credit cards, we’ve already done The Bay and Samsung..this round of STB has been tougher to fulfill without spending money on things I don’t want or need. We should be able to do the seven offers but it’s close.

How long do you find the tree lasts? We usually get one from a tree farm but I'm finding them pricey the last couple of years. Last year shocked me. We do it because they have trees that can last 5-6 weeks in the house. I forget the name of the tree now.. We plan on getting a tree this weekend and it will stay up for 5 weeks.

EDITED: I believe it's the fraser fir

Do we only have 1 Sobeys Urban Express in Ottawa? Wonder if they are going to have a stock of gift cards

Thanks for all the feedback on LCBO - I bought another bottle using my wife's AM card so hopefully they go through for STB

We make sure to make a new cut before putting it in the stand.. that is very important because the cut on the tree right now is sealed over and won’t allow the tree to absorb water. We check the water every day and add more as necessary. Doing these two things has always kept our tree in good shape from December 1st to Boxing Day. We’ve also cut our own a few times and I’ve never noticed much of a difference. Like you, I find the cut your own place near us is getting really pricey.

I bought the same wine and nothing else. I got 7 AM posted two days later. It didn’t show on the receipt. I don’t think I’ve ever seen AM posted on my LCBO receipts at all.

thanks to everyone sleuthing out the samsung pay situation! I almost feel like I can count on airmiles to fix the problem!


(almost)

Samsung offer. I read elsewhere that Airmiles had issues with the way Samsung posted this. Everyone who got 50 AM will be getting an additional 25 AM in the next few days. At least that is what someone else was told.

Just checked and there’s an additional 25 posted on my account.

Pharmasave in NB. I used cash miles and the girl would not scan my coupon for sttb she said it appears on the screen and she did not need actual coupon. So, my standard miles have appeared and no others. Even on my receipt there is no mention of the promo. Anyone else know how pharma save works with air Miles? I think I am in trouble and may just do one more run there.

 

[ottawamom]

Pharmasave is like Rexall. They will post the StB bonus in a few weeks. Keep your email that says where and when the cash miles were used as well as a copy of the StB coupon and you will be fine.

I have 2 Indigo orders on the 23rd, Jean Coutu purchase the same day, one Amazon order on the 26th, I added my AM number to a new Samsung account the 20th but nothing is showing up ! I'M getting impatient, I just wish there was a way to make sure everything was done correctly , will show up and I'll get the miles !

 

[marchingstar]

Just checked and there’s an additional 25 posted on my account.

me too! it says “standard offer”, but there’s one for 50 and another for 25. looks like the problem is fixed.

 

[TFC_UNTIL_I_DIE]

Got the LCBO points posted already

 

[cari12]

My base mile for The Bay posted today. Now, just waiting for the rest of the bonus miles to post from AM Shops.

That is the only one that has posted so far out of 5 AM Shops purchases.

AM shops seem to be posting slowly this promo. I did 2 shops, Nov 21 and Nov 23 and neither have posted
