Excluding gift cards in general sucks. But at least include gift cards to Urban Fresh/Sobeys in the offer.

Agreed *

$ 50 is a low threshold spend ... so that’s nice
Downside it’s only usable ONCE per AMs Collector Account
So gotta plan to use it when you do your biggest shop in the STB 6 week period

* Those of us who got in on the Sobey’s GC Promos back around Thanksgiving can certainly use the ones we’ve stockpiled for all these Sobey’s Group of Stores STB Offers

So Sobeys and Sobey's Urban Fresh count as 2 separate offers?

The important count is partners, not offers. Yes, 2 different logos on the STB site, means 2 different partners.

Blue Friday (Nov 22) at Sobeys, Sobeys UF & Foodland makes the $50 threshold a little easier to swallow IMO YMMV

NO! I was just saying that they should have. The terms are clear though... No gift cards at all.

I have some FPCs.

Does anyone know if I can buy $50, get the BAMs, and then use the FPCs as part of the payment? Or, does the total need to be at least $50, after coupons are applied?

thanks in advance

This is showing up as Sobeys without the "Urban Fresh" logo and it doesn't reference Shop the Block on my AM account. The points add up for this promotion though. Should be ok?

Should be fine.

Technically ... the full name is Sobey’s Urban Fresh (see the logo on the STB Website)

I am sure that the internal workings @ Sobey’s Group HQ & AirMiles have this figured out
(As many of us discovered during Xmas in July event, AirMiles has a set of usually hidden codes that correspond to each Partner when Miles Get POSTED to our Accounts. So I think it’s pretty clear to them that you did the Urban Fresh Offer as one of your PARTNER COUNTS)

It is indeed not ideal. The 'Sponsor' displayed online is 'Sobeys' for both Urban Fresh and Sobeys, although the next column shows the address of the store. The receipt shows 'Shop the Block' with 8, 12, etc Bonus Miles, but online it just shows as 'Bonus Reward Miles'. FWIW, I have in the past used both sponsors for STB and got the miles and sponsors, no problem.

I saw the Netflix and Sephora offers from my email too. But when I login to https://getmyoffers.ca/, the grocery gift card offer is on the top of the list

Previously, yes you could use it as payment, but not sure if any changes this year

Don’t know about FPCs (Free Product Coupons) how they work

BUT do know that Sobey’s Gift Cards count the same as Cash

And that EVERY Sobey’s Group Customer that belongs to MY OFFERS (be it thru the website or App)

Should have a Buy a Sobey’s $ 25 GC Offer this week ...

As noted above by @ricedion in Reply # 14
The smart thing here to do is buy the GC and then redeem it for Groceries
Maybe Even in the same trip ...
Or better yet ... STACK IT with other offers
It will work with the STB Offer
Or on Tuesday ~ December 3rd = Customer Appreciation Day Offer
IF you live in a Province / Region where Sobey’s Group has those
(check the current flyer for details )
