Safeway's Sweet AirMiles Deals

[operabob]

I see the cereal boxes with the $10 in coupons on the box are back on the shelves (at least at Thrifty's).

As the AM special on Eggos comes up regularly it might be worth loading if you eat a lot of Rice Crispies! ;-)

Coupons appear to be good until Dec. 31.

[operabob]

Apparently the Eggo coupon is for larger boxes.

Bought 4 cereal today with the free movie ticket.

The offer is different this time than last:

Odeon Cineplex

Sunday to Thursday only

February: B1G1

March: Free small drink

April: 1 Free admission

May: Free small popcorn

Guess I'm going to a lot of movies in April!

Apparently the Eggo coupon is for larger boxes.

Those cereal boxes with coupons are worth it! I got 4 large Eggo boxes for $0.5 each from RCSS. I got 4 nutri grain bars boxes for free from RCSS.

for airmile bonus without the coupons item, do we have to buy all in one transaction within the week? for ex. buy 5 earn 50 airmiles. can i buy 3 today and by the other 2 tommorrow?

[operabob]

All 5 at once.

I have the March 22 - 28 flyer.

Nothing particularly outstanding this coming week.

Perhaps the best is Kellogg's B5G50 but last week General Mills with similar prices was B6G100.

Nutri-Grain bars and Pop-Tarts: 4 for $10
Muslix 675g-775g 2 for $6
Assorted cereals 300g-750g 2 for $6
Eggos (big boxes) $6.99
Rice Crispies and assorted 2 for $7

Kimberly Clark products B5G75

J&J B4G40

Signature Cafe Meals- any 3 Entrees, sides or salads B3G25

Just an alert.

There doesn't seem to be many coupons out there these days but one that seems plentiful are B2G$1 on Kellogg's bar products of which Nutri-Grain and Pop-Tarts qualify.

I suspect there will be a B$100G100AM bonus in the email-direct this Saturday night but can't really say. But if there is and depending on your credit card (mine gets 1AM/$10 at Safeway) how well could you do?

Using the coupons:

5 = $10 G50 AMs

50 = $100 G500AMs + 100 AM bonus + 10AMs credit card = 610 AMs

610 = $85.40 in AMs approx

Turn around and donate everything to a food bank possibly getting a $50 reduction in taxes.

Thus $100 spent = $85.40 + $50 = $135.40 benefit elsewhere.

In other words a 35.4% return on investment.

This is out early so hopefully we'll get a bonus AM email later tonight:

this is the week i need to stock up on cereal and lunch snacks.....so ......

this is my plan

buy 10 boxes of cereal....i checked and 4 varieties have the $10 in coupons
on sale 2/$7....i have B2S$2....so $25

then cut out coupons for nutrigrain etc

go back with coupons and get them for $.50 a box x10...on sale 4/$10

if you do it with all the coupons you could end up with 400 am for $40 which is worth $50 at the bay..or $40 in gas with 50 miles left over


was thinkin of you OB when i saw this...lol



and to day im taking 6 FPC for herbal essenses on sale for $2.50.....buy 6 get 40 AM
and 2 x $10 off 3 olay body washes on for $3.99...another 40 am

[operabob]

mom,

I saw the thread earlier about people signing up for Wow??????? and getting 10 free FPCs in the mail but I can't find it now.

Do you recall the thread?

I think we should take all these AirMiles and do a group cruise somewhere what with all these discounted cruises right now! LOL!

[mom4boys1girl]

the matchstick thread is closed now...too bad

yeah you could do it with enough cereal.....and carnival just announced they will stop in victoria now instead of vancouver

[operabob]

I wouldn't buy a cruise from Carnival or any other offered on the AirMiles website.

Instead I'd exchange for Marlin gift certificates and book through them. They'll match anyone else's advertised prices so you'd get better prices and more choice.

Carnival is my least favourite cruise line.

I did the same deal too, Mom...when I went back with 20 coupons (nutrigrain, krispie bars and sticks and raisin bran), the girl at the cash was so impressed - got five of each of those listed for only $12.50. What an awesome deal, especially when you consider how much the airmiles are worth!!
