Thanks very much for this thread and all the useful info. Did the Kashi Cereal run and used 15 X $1 off coupons. Probably the most fun I've ever had shopping.
Can we do more than one run a week? I'm thinking of doing another swiffer/cereal run tomorrow using the Spend $60 get 100AM coupon...
No guarantees but I often go more than once.
Best bet would be to call safeway and ask
1-877-SAFEWAY
The bonus coupon says 1 per VISIT so it should be fine. I have never double checked my points though ... trusted them to follow their own fine print.
Where did people find the Kashi coupons?
By the "Kashi"-register.
Actually, as I've fine-tuned my obsession I realize the best place to look is in stores where they have a lot of manufacturer's displays in or at the ends of the aisles. Seems to be more there than on the shelves.
*Deal Alert*
I read on another forum...that someone found out the B6G40AM also works for Whiskas Bites Pouches...$0.64 each.
So...6 pouches = $3.78
16 sets = $60.48 + tax
16 sets = 640AM
+ Bonus coupon (Spend $60, get 100AM)
740AM in total
if you calculate 1AM = $0.14
740AM = $103.60
and you only spend $60.48 + taxes!!!
Update to that deal... the 64 cent pouches do not qualify for the airmiles deal, the deal is on the larger pouches...
someone got the pouches (now on sale for $0.54) in BC and the promotional AMs showed up on the cashier screen as they were scanned.....
i think its dependent on which flavour...some work some don't
Urgh - too bad it's so confusing! I'd hate to get them and then find out that they didn't really qualify! It would be so much easier if the AMs showed up in your account right away :-)Quote:

Ok i just wrote this, it was a fairly quick write so the grammar and sentence structure may not be the best, but what do you think? Feel free to add to the list of the benefits...
P.S - Don't send this to safeway yet, if you think it is a good idea i think it would be a good idea to send it periodically, i don't think it would be a great idea to send 1000 of the same emails in the same day, they might think its just a spammer, although I may be wrong what do you think???
Dear Safeway

Being an Airmiles collector I love Safeway. I love that I am rewarded for the shopping that I do. I love the special airmile deals, and joyfully watch my airmiles balance grow week to week.
Despite my great love for the combination of Safeway and airmiles I must say that there is one very frustrating thing about the program; that is that the airmiles do not show up in the account right away. It is understandable that the airmiles do not show up right away, after all, the loyalty group is a third party company and everything takes time. I do have a compromise to make the program even better; print the amount of airmiles earned on the bottom of the receipt.
I believe this would do many things to help benefit Safeway.

- It would help attract customers who are unsure about airmiles to Safeway. They would be able to confidently know that they earned (x) amount of airmiles and it will be credited to their account, it will give them confidence, instead of a uncertain feeling that they may be ripped off.
- It would create efficiency within the Safeway staff in their investigations of non-credited airmiles. Now, if airmiles are not credited within the 90 days all staff would have to do is look at the receipt, (and if receipts have a individual code this could be done over the phone, so quick!!!)
- Shoppers would see that they are earning airmiles and their shopping at Safeway is indeed rewarding.
Please consider this request as I believe it would be better for customers, and in the end would make Safeway a more profitable company.

Sincerely…
Great letter ! let me know when you want me to sign.
hi everyone!
this is in regard to the airmiles on the reciept.
this is what I do. I have a large manilla envelope with line paper attached to the front. When i shop I write down on both the reciept and the paper what airmiles I got. so example is
may 20 2 deodorant=20, 2 TP=50, 2 mr. clean=30, 5 cereal= 100, 5 chocolate=40, + spend $60=100 =340 $79.91
I paper clip the reciept to the front of the envelope and as my airmiles appear on my account, i tick it off the paper. and when all the airmiles from that shopping trip make it on my account I tick off the grand total and put the reciept in the envelope. so that way If I'm missing airmiles I can just grab the reciept and have all the info right there for me when i call them!
I currently have 615 airmiles that haven't made it to my account since jan. that isn't counting the 1136 airmiles I've gotten this month. Safeway and airmiles are great about awarding missing ones. Just call safeway. usually you just need to go to safeway, fill out a form, get the receipt photocopied, and they fax it in. I have had thousands of airmiles not accounted for over the years. So it does pay to make sure you keep track of them!
Happy shopping!
