Free Airmiles Promotion – 85 Air Miles or a $10 Rona, Safeway or Shell Gift Certificate

admin — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 16:08:56 +0000

Here's a great promotion that should be fairly easy for everyone across the country to take use. Simply visit airmiles.ca/free and select your province, then click on the coupons link. This will give you a list of coupons available for your region.

Now, between September 22 and October 24, 2010, use three or more different specially marked coupons in connection with purchases made at participating AIR MILES Sponsors and get 85 reward miles. The other option is to choose a $10 gift card from Safeway, Shell or RONA.

My personal preference is the 85 airmiles as that's a good chuck of airmiles (for free) whereas $10 isn't a lot of money. Even using the average weeks best airmiles price of $0.30 you're much better off getting the 85 free airmiles!

Important Tax Filing Weekend

Just a quick reminder that this weekend you might want to consider filing your taxes. That's because the RRSP tax filing deadline is March 1st. If you file before March 1st you can top up your RRSP to maximize your refund (or minimize your payment). Which is even easier when using Quicktax to file your taxes as they have the built in RRSP optimizer feature.

Check out QuickTax. You can do your taxes for free and you only pay when you file your taxes. In fact, some people can file 100% free using QuickTax! Plus, if you join with friends or family you can file up to 8 returns with one version of QuickTax! Maximize your refund Get Your QuickTax Now.

Save Money On Gas At Safeway

admin — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 12:20:59 +0000

This isn't really a direct Airmiles deal, however, it is a good way to save a bit of money.

Safeway currently has a pretty neat gas saving deal on now. Spend $100 and you get 7 cents off your gas purchase. Even better the more you spend at Safeway food stores the more you'll save on your gas. Although, it's not explicitly stated I think you earn $0.035 off of your gas for every $100 you spend at Safeway. You can earn up to a Free Fill if you spent enough money!

At the $0.035 (and assuming $0.80 gas price) you'll have to spend approximately $2,200 to get a free tank of gas.

Now you can make this deal super sweet by earning this gas discount on gift cards too. So to really take advantage of this you could buy a bunch of gift cards to Home Depot, the Keg or others. You'll then get that gas discount.

Note: it does say restrictions apply see store for details so I'm assuming their is some sort of maximum you can actually accumulate in one purchase. (just a guess as I haven't checked the store yet)
