Most Sobeys locations I've encountered have a lottery terminal and sometimes sell city transit tickets too.
That's how I've been spending the majority of my $150 GC.

Dude! Excellent haul. And that is quite the shopping list! Makes me hungry!silky28 wrote: ↑ Ok, so I went to Foodland grabbed the $150 gift-card and got the 200air-miles. I then went to Sobeys and spent $149.75 and got a further 183 in air-miles because I bought 3 packs of bacon + 2 packs eggs (100 mile bonus) and I also bought 4 packs of hotdogs and 2 packs of hamburgers (another 75 miles).
Long story short I got 383 air-miles for $150 in groceries that I would have bought anyways.

I've been manipulating air-miles promos for years. I really used to clean-up on the old Shell 50 air-miles for $50 promos. You had to spend $50 to get 50 miles but a minimum of $25 had to be on gas, the rest could be on anything...lottery, gift-cards, food etc. So on the first transaction we would buy $25 in gas and a $25 Shell gift-card ($25 in gas, $25 in gift card = 50 miles). The second transaction was better...we would buy pay for $25 in gas on the existing gift-card and buy another $25 shell gift-card ($25 in gas on existing gift-card, $25 in Shell gift-card = $25 for 50 miles). By the time we had done 4 transactions we would have spent $125 and received 200 air-miles. I have 2 trucks, 2 cars, a motorcycle and a bunch of jerry cans. Long story short I usually ended up with 500 or more miles spending $275 or so dollars. I miss those days.blitzkrieg wrote: ↑Dude! Excellent haul. And that is quite the shopping list!

I also bought gift cards at Foodland, left the store and immediately went to Sobeys. My local Sobeys is one of the few in Ontario that sells beer! I picked up an additional 66 air miles on a $135.85 spend, half of which were tall boys. Love it!

100% CASH miles now, since I already cleared out all my DREAM miles in 2015 (by redeeming into BMO Investment Vouchers)alanbrenton wrote: ↑Are you earning cash or dream miles? It seems dream is better with there big bonuses?
