There are good P & G coupons as well on the Bounty Paper Towels... which make them an even better airmiles deal.
This morning's group buy is a diamond pendant necklace. With the way they value diamonds it's too hard to evaluate this offer so I'll pass.
There was a great story many years ago on 60 minutes where they took "valued" diamonds to dealers to get the real values. This was followed up by a story about a fellow that won a $100,000 diamond at Carnegie Hall. In the US they tax winnings. In the end the winner paid more in taxes than he was able to get selling the diamond.
The 'retail value' is listed at $2500. Looking around the interwebs, I'd say actual value is $5-800. Not a horrible deal, but not for me. :)Quote:

I'm wondering if these AMs might be clawed back later. I assume the registers are smart enough to know I'd already taken advantage of the offer two days earlier. Any info appreciated. Thanks, Scott.
I'm finding similar necklaces on Ebay for around $375 to $400.
Newbie question...
My brother started working for Safeway about 6 months ago. He says he has a AM card for me that Safeway gives out for employees and their family members. Does anyone know how this works?

You're allowed 10 multiples or 500 AMs on any particular offer/day/shop.Quote:

On the frozen Foods this means you could buy:
5 (multiples) x 10 = 50 items and get 500AMs
If you bought 60 (6 multiples) you'd still only get 500 as that's the max.
You could do this every day and get 7 x 500 = 3,500 AMs.
What is not clear for us is if you shop 2 times in a day could you get 2 x 500 = 1,000 AMs.
Some people say you can get around the 500 limit by having a 2nd Safeway Club Card but I haven't tested it.
Note: 500 is not the limit for the day but the limit per offer so you can go over 500 by combining different offers. The B$100G100AM coupon is also added on regardless of the 500 limit.
Note: It's easy to become addicted to AirMiles. Only buy these things if the AirMiles give you a price advantage over buying elsewhere, otherwise you're just wasting your money.
Don't know but what I've heard is that employees get a discount on Safeway House Brands so that can boost their AirMile returns.Quote:

This came into effect about 2 years ago after a dog food special.Quote:

It was possible to go in and buy around $500 of dog food and come out with about $2,000 + worth of AirMiles. The dog food was flying off the shelves so fast and being donated to animal shelters for tax receipts that I assumed the sponsor lost a fortune. Safeway then put on the 500 AM limit to slow things down a bit.
Just talked to an employee and he said their AirMiles card is no different than anyone else's. But he was a youngun' and wasn't super sure.
OK, my wife has a big event coming up later this year so I bit on the necklace based on Newf's research but this one is selling slow so I think it'll likely fail in which case I'll wait for something else or nothing. ;-)

He collects for me using my extra AM card. I'm getting something for the Employee card. I just don't know how it works. I thought maybe they were matching Base AMs but it doesn't add up on my statement.
I know all the women here will hate me but my wife's 60th is coming up and I'll give her the necklace at the party.
She hates AirMiles (because I like them) and I'll be killing myself laughing on the inside over how I got the necklace. :toothy9:
necklace sold out, the auctions are atrocious, airmiles and a fool are soon departed
Good Morning, I hate to ask but does anyone have an extra access code? I forgot my codes at home and am now at work and don't want to miss out on the group buy (assuming its something good). If you do, please email me at [email protected].
Frem,
