For those in the west, has anyone tried the Thrifty's 75AM WUS $65 offer?
Did you get AM right way?

Mine only showed Promo 36 on the receipt.
I volunteer at Thrifty's. I did this offer this morning and only Promo 36 showed, no other wording and no 75AMs. Because they know me there, they double checked that everything was OK according to the coupon, then rang my coupon through again to see if anything else might show up, and the only thing that showed was Promo 36. If I have time, I might do a "chat" to check on this.

Also wait for Metro's offer (redeem 95 cash mile for $10 and get bonus 50AM) or you can use their current offer, Oder from catering menu.
Trouble is I have only like 10 cash miles. I think I’ll stick with Miss Fresh and Foodland for 6 & 7.

I sure hope Safeway Liquor (BC) has another offer. Only a single one day offer (that I couldn’t make it to) so far is disappointing.

As suggested on this thread, I am planning to but the $75 gift card from Sobeys Urban Fresh and then spending $60 of it at Foodland.

How are people spending $60 at Foodland? Are there any good deals there?

Have a look at the Foodland flyer and see what appeals to you. Not sure how much it varies by locale, but here is a start:

Should I be worried or the above seems correct? No STB mentioned on the receipt.
I did the same thing as you.
I see the coupon is scanned on the screen while I was making the purchase.
I also got 120 bonus miles, which is 100 + 20 stacked.
I'm fairly sure we are good.

Bought a $100 Irving gift card today for my STB qualification instead of the 4 fillups. Will be interested to see how quickly the miles post.

For me, it was a little frustrating that the coupon which I picked up at the store itself didn't work earlier today at Thrifty Foods, in spite of my spending $102.62 before taxes. I didn't like to take the cashier's time as there were customers behind me, so I went straight to the customer service, and they awarded me 75 AMs. Since there was no promotion code on any of the receipts (except the 75 AMs + 5 AMs), I went home and chatted with an agent on the AM portal. After asking for a few details, such as the exact spend $, the agent assured me that this would be counted towards the promotion. Then I printed off the chat session, in addition to saving the pdf version of the chat! I am hoping this should be fine.
"Share" is a powerful action verb!

My LCBO AirMiles posted very fast but just as regular points with no Shop The Block. I didn’t see a special code for LCBO in the booklet.

Fyi

Just checked the bill it shows the code for STB see attached

Am wondering the same thing - Shell's so good about listing which airmiles are from what offer (Shop The Block In-Store Offer, In-Store Purchase, Gift Card Offer), but am not sure what to expect from Rexall.

My bill has the same SP$40 G20AM 41700004995, but am a little more worried because airmiles came out to a funny number. My bill came to $52.99, with 2 bottles of BeWell vitamins that made me eligible for an extra 30 airmiles. So was expecting the bonus miles to add up to 150 ... but instead they only added up to 145??

My bill says ...

Base Miles Earned: 2
Bonus Miles Earned: 145 ???
Load & Go: 0

Total: 147


Can't figure out where the extra 15 would have come from, if not for the Shop The Block - but that was supposed to be 20, not 15. Did you maybe give the coupon before your card as well? Wonder if that may have made a difference? Was going to go back tomorrow and have the cashier refund the purchase and redo it to see - actually, may even go back tonight while it's not very busy.

Will see if it makes a difference? :/

If you think this one is confusing, you should have been here for last year’s. This one is a piece of cake compared to it.

You’ll be fine. Keep your receipts and check back on this thread in Jan or Feb (it’ll be in the Expired area) when the bonus miles post, and if you’re missing them you’ll just need to chat with AM, giving them the receipts. Bit of a hassle, but it’s 2000 AM, which gives you Gold to start the year. Also means you’re 1/3 the way to Onyx.

I've flipped the color scheme a bit in post #1 - black will be receipt info, orange will be unconfirmed info and purple will be confirmed info.

I haven't gone through/updated the recent confirmations yet as I've reached the 60k character limitation in post #1 (LOL, I knew it was coming).

I'll PM Tom and see what can be done with the limitation.

If we're capped at 60k, I need to remove some info. I'm thinking the linked posts are useful, so perhaps I could remove the "COUPON REQUIRED/COUPON NOT REQUIRED" for each offer and maybe some of the fine print? The good thing about this year's STB website is that AM is leaving the expired offers on the site and showing the offer as ENDED with the fine print still intact. Unfortunately, when the promo ends, the offers are likely to come down. If I take away the fine print, everyone might want to take screenshots of the offers that they're doing for proof next year, if required.

What matters is the sub total amount.

Guys don't forget to take advantage of Metro's cashmiles redemption offer (not part of STB at the moment)
You can get 50 Bonus AM for each day for redeeming 95 cashmiles for $10, so if you do all 4 days that's 200 bonus AM for redeeming 380 CM

On the last page of the Urban Fresh flyer the fine print says:
Get 75 AIR MILES BONUS MILES when you purchase $75 in Sobeys gift cards.
Limit of 5 Bonus Offers per Customer Account.
The Shop the Block coupon limits you to 4 Bonus Offers.

Heads up: Global Pet Foods STB offer of 25 bonus miles when you spend $100 coupon does not work.

I just went today to buy dog food $99.99 and added in another item to go over $100. When they scanned it or typed it in, nothing happens.

So i just used the STB coupon for 10 bonus miles when you spend $50 to at least get the qualifier. Showed up on the screen right away when they scanned it.

Then I will chat with AirMiles to see if they can give me the missing 15 miles.
