Just got all my airmiles from last week - hurray! Just checked the Nestea redemption form, and I don't see the 1L bottles as a qualifying product. :( Seems to just be:
4 x 12 pack
8 x 1.89L (chilled)
10 x 2L
10 x 10 tetra pack
12 x 475/591 ml bottles
So my guess is that the 1L's don't have tokens!
Apparently I didn't read close enough, I thought it was the 2L on sale *sigh* oh well it was a nice thought.
From the flyer it's the Nestea 12 x 341ml only at $5.99 each.
Alaryk,
Regardless on it being 1L vs. 2L you're getting paid to shop.
Also, the boomer coupon runs out today I believe unless you have a new one you can share with us.
BTW: Here's next week's email.direct:

I thought it expired on the 31st not the 30th, oh well not my week I guess *sigh*
Too much time on my hands and got to thinking, "What's the best way to take advantage of the $25 Gift card on Nestea?"
Some "ifs":
1. Disregarding tax, bottle deposit, stamps for mail in, etc.
2. Assuming that item is eligible. (I was just in Safeway and they have the eligible Nestea in the long box rather than the square box shown in the flyer. Will have to wait til tomorrow to know for sure.)
3. Can you get multiples? Buy 4 gets $25 gift card but does 8 get 2 x $25? Dunno!
4. Assuming no "fee" on the gift card. Some credit card gift cards come with a processing fee.
Scenario 1:
Buy 12 to get full multiples.
12 x $4.99 = $59.88
That's 3 groups so 3 x $25 = $75 in gift cards plus 120 AMs = $16.80
Total extra: $75 + $16.80 = $91.80
$91.80/$59.88 = 53% advantage
Scenario 2:
Buy 4 Nestea + 2 one litre pop = $19.96 + $2.50 = $22.46
Get one $25 gift card + 60AMs ($8.40) = $33.40 advantage
$33.40/$22.46 = 49% advantage
So it would seem buying Nestea by itself with the $25 gift card is a better return except you must buy multiples of 12 boxes to maximize, for example
Scenario 3:
Buy 6 Nestea = $29.94
Get $25 gift card + 60AMs ($8.40) = $33.40
$33.40/$29.94 = 12% advantage.
Old spice body wash which is 4.99 each is buy 3 earn 80 AM
Gatorade 6 packs which are 4.99 each are buy 3 earn 50AM
Johnsons Baby toiletries which are 3.99 each (and are everywhere else) are buy 4 earn 60 (GREAT DEAL)
Re: 20 free AMs at IRIS.
Although the coupon seems no longer to be up on the AirMiles site I was in Safeway last night getting items for our dance.
At the blue kiosk showing the AM specials they had magazine sized booklets for the "Millionaire Giveaway". There's a coupon in there good to June 12.
Only one coupon per AirMile account.
20 AMs = $2.80
I got an email from Safeway with these coupons :
Buy 1 package of Pampers diapers = 100AMs!
Buy 1 package of Fusion blades = 100AMs!
Men or Lady speedstick - $0.99 each
Pantene Haircare - $2.99 each
I have a couple $10 coupons from Pampers..I think I'm going to use them this week for the bonus 100AMs! :)
Re: Nestea $25 MasterCard items.
Was just in Safeway at Tillicum Mall.
They didn't have any Nestea 12 tins @ $5.99 with the $25 offer.
However they had Nestea Cool 12 tins long box that did. This item does not appear to be part of the AirMile special.
HOWEVER!
They are $4 each
4 = $16 (ignoring taxes, etc.) and you get a $25 Master Card Gift Card.
$25/$16 = 56.25% gain and you still have the product.
Wow kaimui - where'd you find $10 coupons?
I'd like to know too! :)
was just in safeway... bought 1L bottles of pop/powerade, and will recieve 480 AM for it.
FYI small print says 3 offers per household :-)Quote:
