Cereal - Using Boomer b4g50 & boomer $60 vs b6g50
So let me see if I got this right ..
Scenerio A
If I use the Boomer pay $60 get 100 and but use B6Get50 miles I could do this:
- 6 cereal *3.99 = $23.94
- Buy 3 batches of 6 =71.82
- Collect 3*50 miles = 150 miles
- Collect 100 for the buy $60 boomer
- Total is 250 points = $35.00
Actual Cost of Cereal $36.85 for 18 boxes - $2 each
Scenario B
- 4 cereal *3.99 = $15.96
- Buy 4 batches of 4 =63.84
- Collect 4*50 miles = 200 miles
- Collect 100 for the buy $60 boomer
- Total is 300 points = $42.00
Actual cost of cereal = 21.84 for 16 boxes - $1.36 each :-)

Using the B6 from "b" with the B$60 from "a" and buying 12 cereal as part of a $60 purchase you'd get: 300 AMs vs. 250 AMs an effective $7 difference. Once again, Too much time on my hands!
Shelter Supplies - Thanks to Air Miles and Coupons
Okay Opera Bob here is the result of your sharing how to collect Air Miles to help others. Thanks so much for teaching me how to do this.:-)
I bought
- cereal (4) this week;$3.99*4-$2(coupons)=$13.96
- Dove body wash - 8*2.99-(8*1.50) + Sunsilk 4*2.99=23.88
- Hamburger Helpers 9*2.49-(9*.50) =17.91
- Hamburger Helpers 3*2.49=7.47
- plus 4 FREE Hamburger Helpers @ 2.49 with B3G1
- Total Cost=$62.91except the cashier took 2.99 off for the first 3 - 1.50 =$61.41 TOTAL COST
Total goods: 4 Cheerios, 8 Dove body wash, 4 Sunsilk Shampoos and 16 Hamburger Helpers - 32 items
Total points: 50 for cereal, 50 * 2 Unilever, 3 x 50 General Mills (if they count the free HH), Boomer bonus 100 = 450 points * 14
=$63.00 TOTAL AIRMILES VALUE
And the real reason I'm wondering is that I have been collecting Kashi FPCs so I could use my 5+ Kashi FPCs and buy more and if the free ones count towards the bonus points, I can get more bonus points next week.
