Bob you forgot something on your message to cbc... The kickback they get from customers ordering online hotel rooms. They didn't just take 35.5% of our airmiles value... they made sure they got paid to do it with that kickback. We purchased those dang airmiles... they are ours when we purchase them... we own them... In my opinion, you STOLE from us!!! In my opinion, you continue to steal from us and you make sure to get kickbacks for the deed. Anything that comes next is a product of your own greed.
Yeah, I realized it just after I hit submit but I'll include in the official letter.Quote:

Being a healthy paranoiac perhaps the meeting is to prepare them for the onslaught of the AMies! But I wouldn't rush to cash in. They usually give a couple of weeks notice of major practices changes.
Feel free to pile on as the more people who do the more likely they'll take notice. (A lot of people knock the CBC but nobody does shows like Marketplace better because they don't have to worry about pleasing advertisers first. I miss Ginny Lee and the Money Show):

When I say anything that comes there way they have earned I want to clarify... i am talking about when the government is done with them and the massive loss of consumer confidence to follow.
I might give my opinion, write letters and give my tell me how you really feel version on youtube and being one hell of a squeaky wheel that helps other airmiles account holders much more then it will help me. That will be as far as I will take it. (although I do think it would be funny if people were to pickett in front of airmiles related businesses. LOL what a shame... I have the silk screen equipment for the signage... and no energy to use it.)

For the $100for100AM that they have, is it $100 before or after manufacturers coupons? Thanks.

Could anyone remind me what the limit is for bonus point deals? I always forget! :confused: I know it's daily.
I finally picked up the last of my toilet paper / paper towel / tissue from Safeway last week, and managed to get a picture of most of it. Some of it was already distributed throughout the house, though, so it is missing one tissue, one paper towel, and 2 TP bundles! You can see one package of Kleenex tissues in the pile too, because I bought those the day before I heard about the sale!
This is $500 in paper products, or 3525 or so Airmiles.
10 multiples or 500 AMs per day on any one particular offer whichever comes first.Quote:

Ways around the limit are to have a second club card and I believe some people say shopping at a different store the same day works.
