Airmiles Armchair Chatter

Has anyone received their 20/40/60 airmiles from their last promotion yet? I only got emails posted on the first receipt (not the 60), and on the second day - only a portion of the miles of the receipt posted, not all of them (and still not the 60).

Mine just posted within the last 30 minutes! I checked before i powered down the surface and they weren't there, popped over to check e-mail and a quick refresh showed my account was up by a fair chunk and poof, several of my Metro miles have posted. The 60 bonus have the date Sept 11th ... we never shop on a Monday BTW.

Mine arrived as well. I just checked. Also posted Sept 11th, although the purchase was made August 31.

I thought the AMEX ones would have posted today. I guess my billing date is a couple of days later than I thought.

Thanks for the links Duck. Somehow I knew you would be up bright and early!
Have a great day! and Happy Shopping!

Wow. Rexall's is a bust for me. The flyer looks loaded with air mile offers but I just can't find $50 worth of stuff to purchase. Way too many items are buy 2 and I just can't justify that.

Also I just purchased 2 packs of Sudafed head cold & sinus pills yesterday. (sigh). Three out of four of us are sick.
 


Well looks like I'll be buying cookies at Sobeys and bringing them in to work or donating them to food bank!

I also have been thinking of doing some halloween themed chocolate dipped oreos :)

You KNOW i love a challenge. When i get home later tonight (bus gets in a 8 :eek:) I'll be studying the flyer in detail and I'll see if i can give you some suggestions. Give me a few details and I'll see what i can find for you: age of people in your family, which part of the country, any upcoming trips, anyone who you will shop for in the near future (birthdays/Christmas)

Just wanted to say thanks for al the posts and awesome suggestions and tips that are provided on this thread! I have been an AM collector for 25 years and used to actively chase the bonus AM. Then we got the Amex with AM and we had kids and life got busy and I got lazy. As long as I was gold and had enough AM for trips to Orlando every couple of years I was happy. Now with Onyx I wondered if it might be impossible to reach but thanks to this group I have a new ambition to make Onyx this year without breaking the bank! I only need 2,772 before the end of December which seemed impossible before but all these tips make it seem possible!

So thank you to everyone for all you do and share! :thanks:

Thanks Jacqueline. I don't want to put you to any bother though. I looked through the flyer again trying to see things you suggested and I'm afraid there's nothing this time around. Christmas will be light this year. We need to pay off debt and have our cruise Spring 2018. I know. The words "cruise" and "debt" shouldn't go together but that was booked back when AMs said we'd lose our 28,000+ miles. I could probably make $50 but there's nothing to double-dip on in the flyer for me so I'm not going to try to stretch it. Unless maybe those 3 pk oral toothbrush head replacements are what my husband is looking for.

That's all right. I'm going to purchase cookies & pizza. That will make the kids happy and get me some air miles. :) Metro still has the goat's milk for 6 AMs on their app plus 6 AMs for mini wheats which we eat a lot. Unless we are going to want a turkey this year, I'm not going to try to hit Metro's 20 AMs, let alone 60 AMs.

BTW, I'm east of you - Bowmanville.
 
I just have to say...I'm disappointed with Safeway/Sobeys the past little while in the West. I haven't been able to cash in on many miles the past couple of months. I did use the buy 100.00 get 100AM last week...which was nice and I was able to shop there and collect some miles...but there were not many extra miles. This week...is great...if you drink alcohol. I'm the only one who will have the odd beverage once in a while. I probably spend 200 for a year on alcohol :cool1::drinking1 the party animal I am. Oh well...I will wait for the next Blue Friday...and I hope that they will have some great deals for me to scoop up. I've been planning meals to use up what I had stocked up on...and hopefully I'll be able to score some great miles then.

I might have to do a little road trip to Rexall. I'll look better at the flyer and if my weekend has a few spare hours...I might do the 45 minute drive.

Superstore seems to have lots of points for me this week...I should be able to get over 10,000 this week with they are offering me...so I guess Superstore get my money this week!

Mort
I was wondering is this for last weeks flyer or this upcoming flyer? I can find any mention in the flyers for it?
I was thinking of shopping today for basics and Friday for store airmiles specials.
Thanks
Hugs Mel
 
It may only be certain Sobey's stores that offer this deal. I know the one in Ajax on Hwy 2 does but it does say only offered at specific stores.

Hi Hon
Thanks for posting this.
Yep you are correct it says only at certain stores listed.
Thanks for taking the time to post!

Did anyone see the Sobeys, Sobeys Urban Fresh or Foodland flyers say "This Saturday and Sunday, get 150 air miles bonus miles when you spend $100 or more in-store"?

I didn't. But I just received an e-mail from the Air Miles Reward Program stating this.

Too bad it can't be cumlative between the stores. I may have to rethink my shopping now. We can always use meat in the freezer. Normally I get meats from Costco but I haven't been there in a while.
 
grrrrrr. I just got my latest AmEx statement--I should have the bonus for 4x online shopping for August's Soar into More, but I have no bonus miles on the statement! My 4 online purchases (2x amazon.ca, 2xchapters) are split over 2 bills because of when my billing cycle ends, but they're all listed on my statements. I also checked to see that the July SIM bonus (gas station shop) showed up no problem. I'm concerned that they're going to suggest that I didn't properly opt in, and I'm not sure there's any way to disprove that point. I think I have screen shots, but the page just says "congrats, you've opted in" with no identifying information anywhere. Argh, thanks for being a thorn in my side today, AmEx! :badpc:

How have others dealt with missing bonus miles from AmEx? Should I wait for another billing cycle before phoning? Phone and complain now? Has anyone had a good resolution when seeking missing SIM bonus miles?
 
Damn I feel awful. ** Pity whine ahead **

I kept my son out of school last Thursday & Friday only to discover on Sunday he had bronchitis. Two puffers, decongestant and nose spray for him.

Then on Friday my daughter came home sick from school. Lots of sudafed for her.

Both went back to school on Monday but both stayed home again Tuesday. My son smashed & scraped his knee/leg and ended up being put on antibotics for infection to the cuts/scrapes. He's a walking pharmacital right now with all the meds he's on. My daughter needed another day to recover and two more days of sudafed.

Tuesday night my throat started to hurt. Now they seem much better and I'm aching, sore, chilled & flushed, tired, congested, whiny and can't concentrate. I just spent the last 3 hours in bed. I need to force myself to stay wake until 10 pm now.

Missed swimming, dinner & cards Sunday night at our friends' house. (sigh) Probably won't be able to do it this weekend either. I may be better but my husband might get sick next. Please cross your fingers and wish us sickies better! :)

** Pity rant over **

I don't think you need worry yet. I still don't have them either and I have spoke to others in the same boat. The first offer went through but nothing since. Not sure what they are waiting for but I think its AMEX wide and not just a few of us.
