    Lastly will you get the Air miles on rain checks and can you use coupons on rain checks?

    QUOTE( Learned a great new AirMiles trick at Safeway today.

    The new CSer told me that to make sure I got the AirMiles instead of writing them up in the book at a later date and possibly not getting them credited she could sell me 4 now and give me a coupon/chit for a free one I could pick up later.

    Doing this would ensure your AMs are credited at the till, and assuming nothing goes wrong later, your account.

    You just have to make sure not to lose the chit!)QUOTE

    I've also done this lots of times paid for the item /get credit for airmiles /and pickup items @a later date with a prepaid chit-receipt.

    If its just a normal rain check no airmiles involved they normally ask you how many items you want and write that on the one raincheque.
    And I personally have used coupons with raincheques with no problem

    Like the earlier one I posted. It is up to each store to decide if they want to do that or not. I used to be able to do that in one store, now they don't do that any more.

    ob, how long does it take you to get these BW cards in the mail? I think it said up to 3 weeks so that might be a bit tight for me for a trip i am going on. Also do they have a book 2 seperate nights get the 3rd night free promo thing still going on?
    Hor,

    Take the e-mail copy instead and you get it immediately without a shipping fee. I recall they charge S&H for direct purchases of GCs but don't quote me.

    Don't know if anyone has tried that here. They can only say "yes" or "no" so let us know if you fuind out.

    I've used coupons on rain checks in the past.

    Still a good deal IMO though. A 10 1/2% return and I just claim the stay against business so I'll get another 25% or so back in taxes.

    I need to top up some AirMiles for a second flight so I figure it's an easy way to do it.

    Yes, you can get ONE rain check with all 6 items on it. I did this a couple months ago when they have the family size cereal on sale with 100 bonus air miles attached. Yes, you can also use coupons on those items!

    The gutting of AirMiles continues. It used to be that on a $100 you got 100 or 1AM/$1 spent. Then it went to 40 AMs on $50 GCs or 0.8AM/$1 spent.

    This week it's a new low at 50 AMs on $100 or 0.5/$1 spent.

    Combine that with AirMiles downward revaluation from $0.139/AM to $0.105/AM and that 62% drop in value!!!!!

    Boo Safeway!

    Are you logging into your account (entering your PIN), or just going to the page to see your balance. If you don't enter your pin (say, after choosing view Your Transactions), sometimes the balance doesn't update.
