Safeway's Sweet AirMiles Deals

[cheekysaver]

LOL just don't run with they... you could poke your eye out!!! lord how many times did we hear that as kids?

In first thing. Got 4 Dinner Kits with free Coke (didn't even bother with the 5 for $5). The UPCs were easy to get off so didn't even need the scissors. Envelope into the mail as the outlet opened as I was exiting Safeway. So even using Safeway's $1 Coke price:

$15.96 + stamp spent gets $20 GC + $4 worth of Coke (good on my iCoke too).

I picked up 2 pizza pops and 2 taco kits... only one with the coke coupon. The next order i put thru 5 pop, 1 sprite and 4 dr pepper and i paid just over $2... yayyy. (daughter really wanted sprite... no icokes for me!)

I did 2 MIR's. 2x Old Elpaso kits and 2x pizza pops. Then one for 4x Old Elpaso kits. The form says 2 per household. Hopefully I make 2 of the 750. But I am all the way over here and the mailing address is ON
Fingers crossed. But good deal anyway as I used it to get me to spend $100 get 150AM's extreme coupon from the flyer.

Bought a lot of rice cakes and windex today.

$120 after tax... 880 Air Miles. Decent shop. Needed to boost my balance a little.

Anyone else notice that the Olay soap/Old Spice body wash is in the flyer on two separate pages with two DIFFERENT prices? On page 4 the price is 1/$3.99 or buy 2 and pay $2.99ea. On page 6 the price is 1/$3.49 or buy 2 and pay $2.49ea!! (Lots of other items are in the flyer twice but the price is the same)
I'm not buying either one of these products but I'm thinking if the item rang in at the higher price, you should be able to SCOP it due to it being advertised at a lower price as well!

That's impressive! I really could have used a bonus redemption
I stocked up on crispy minis 17 bags and then one bag of the flavored tostitos for 225 airmiles.

[operabob]

I need another 230 for another 2 Airline tickets.

It'll be easy pickin' this week.

My goal was to get 1000 on a $100 shop - came close!.. I could have bought more of the Quaker rice cakes, but I decided to buy things I need / use rather than 36pk of rice cakes/ minis.

Ya, once my last purchase is credited I got enough to book our flights using BMO gold. I was wondering is there a special site I have to redeem through to get my 25% off?

Thanks in Advance!

You should have had your Gold Card automatically connected to Airmiles and you'll get 25% credited. That is, if you supplied them with your AM number when you applied for the master card.

You can test it by looking at a flight and it'll tell you if you get the better rate.

I went to Safeway again and I did not get any points for my get 75 AM wub 6 purchase as usual. Headed to cs desk and ask to return and ring again. The guy there said it won't make a difference and wrote down my info to manually add points. Makes me think of them so stupid with 2 of their people trying every time but can never figure out why system did not give me points. I have now started hating safeway... . Still waiting for my Pizza purchase points to be added.

[cheekysaver]

That would frustrate me too Sporatic. I wonder if you could try contacting airmiles... they do sometimes step in when a situation is long term and on going and contact safeway. We shouldn't have to watch our points that closely. Airmiles did contact safeway on my behalf when i was not getting my points added and i had already tried to get it straightened out. I was not getting any of my points and safeways had to check every airmiles transaction to fix it. It may be worth a phone call to airmiles.
