What do you think trades should be worth 2.0

[FallenPixels]

Hello fellow smartcanuckers,

I have a question regarding trading airmiles. It's taking me forever to collect them and I am thinking of just trading them for gift cards as gifts and holiday shopping. I read the first page and it didn't seem to have any information on airmiles. How many airmiles would be fair to transfer for say a $50 GC? Thank you in advance.

You have to pay $0.15 per Air Mile to transfer them so it really isn't worth it, but basically 95 Airmiles is $10 for cash rewards. You could check what gift cards, movie tickets etc are available and get those and use them for trading

I am looking for a value to place on the new $4 fruttare coupon. They are in very high demand and am thinking of placing a HV value on them, is that correct?

It would be up to the traders, personally I would not find them HV, the reg price is $5.97, the sale ends tomorrow for $4.97 and you can get 4 ice cream bars for $2 without coupons

Does it not go on sale often? the coupon is good till the dec 31 2013... so plenty of time. I have tried this product and its superior to those that regularily sell for $2 regular .

Don't know, I rarely buy stuff like that so don't keep an eye on the prices, but it did not appear often when I searched for a price for the blog - as I said, it would depend on the trader, but coupled with being a printable, to me it would be reg value

I think it is HV. It goes on sale at SDM for 2/$10 once at month at least.

I have moved the fruttare coupon from being HV to better then FPC value.... was able to stack 2 coupons per 1 item at to 2 separate walmart locations. Was confirmed in both cases by csm and management before attempting So I got $3 back on each product that I stacked 2 coupons on and a free box of fruttare. Coupon has great wording on it that allows you to stack even in Ontario.

Thank you for the reply. Although I am not sure what you mean by "pay $0.15 per air mile." I mean how many air miles should I transfer to a SC member if I was trading for a $50 GC from them. For Example, transfer 100 airmiles to their account for a $50 GC trade? I don't know the amount, I am just asking how many air miles should I trade to get a $50 GC or a $25 GC?

Air miles would charge you more than you would get. Its not like sdm where you login and transfer, you call air miles and pay 15c per mile to transfer. They are only worth 10c in cash rewards so you would pay $71 to transfer $50

What would you value the MIR for $15 PC gift card WUB $15 in Glade products?

[FallenPixels]

If it is just the form, without receipt etc, they are usually included in a trade as a RAOK or a stamp for postage etc

With receipt, they usually go a bit lower than the GC value as you need to send off, hope it is accepted, one per household etc

I would probably offer someone 50% in regular coupon value... so $7.50 if I was looking for these. You can use coupons to bring your out of pocket greatly at the cash and this is a free gc to top it off. In the end its up to what you and the trader are happy with.

Hey there

Just curious as to why the GC value for $50 in coupons is so low? I'm wondering because I want to work out a trade but I thought the coupon value was a bit high. I thought it would be equal or a little higher at least ($5 GC for $15 in coupons)

[FallenPixels]

Coupons are just pieces of paper and not meant to be sold, the $5 GC allows a small fee that you can then use to trade with someone who does have coupons you want and helps cover postage etc

Not all coupons get used, you trade $5 GC for $15 in coupons but only end up using $5 in coupons, it is pointless
