Darn I just bought an item yesterday from Amazon and it would have qualified for the offer. I forget to check Amazon as I never have items that qualify. Oh well I may look for something that may qualify.

So I checked and double checked and found an item that showed in the Kitchen and Dining section and bought it on Sunday and it was delivered on Monday and I am still waiting for the base miles to post. I had my cart empty and logged into the AirMilesShoppes site, then went to the Amazon site and added my item from my wish list.
This happens to me everytime I shop at Amazon. I think it is all it okey dokey and it never works out and I usually never chase down the missing miles but I will this time as it it worth 100 miles to me.

My Monday (Family Day) Amazon order, delivered yesterday (Tuesday) just posted. Hopefully yours just needs time.

Edit: just the base mile posted, not the 100am Flash offer.

I did the Amazon offer last week. Just my base miles have posted. T/C say they have 90 days to post the bonus.

I am still waiting for 500 Airmiles from a Dec 28th Metro shop.
Does anyone know Is 60 days a normal for these to be posted?
Please don't tell me I am waiting 120 days.............

Thanks Hugs Mel

Some of you might recall me asking questions about cats and kidney disease. Both of our cats have it. Molly is not making out so well this week. She isn't eating much and we can tell she has lost even more weight. We gave her some yummy tuna today, which she has been eating and will give her some whiskas tomorrow. They love that stuff! She has been withdrawn from us, sleeping on the floor in the corner by the baseboard heater. Not moving around much at all.
I am taking her to the vet tomorrow morning to get looked at. They have been diagnosed for a year now with moderate disease and she also has hyperthyroidism. We think her time is near.

Say a little prayer for Miss Molly tonight, please.

8 weeks old:


Last week (17 years old!) with DD and her brother Stewie:

@ilovetotravel1977 my thoughts are with you and your family.

Thank you.

@ilovetotravel1977 this is a road we walked last year and my heart aches for you. Mocha had the same symptoms during her last week or so, obviously in pain, hiding but still within site, no interest in her regular routine and food. She would gobble down the crap grocery store stuff and we agreed it was time to let her eat anything her little fuzzy heart desired. Cats are a hard nut to crack, they hide symptoms until it's just too much.

I'll keep you in my thoughts while you get ready to help her cross the rainbow bridge. They are our babies and it hurts to let them go.

 

[ilovetotravel1977]

Thanks @Donald - my hero. I remember your story with Mocha.

Molly has been more engaged last night and this morning, but still very weak looking.

Molly will be staying at vet's overnight so they can flush her kidneys, as their levels were tripled (not good). Blood and urine tests came back fine, but her white blood count is showing elevated so vet thinks there is an infection there somewhere. She will go on an antibiotic and powder supplement for kidneys.

Due to the cost, I had told DH that I wouldn't do the flushing, but when the vet gave me the bill I just signed it. Like, how are you supposed to say no?! I figure if this doesn't work, her time will be very near.

This all gives me anxiety as we are going away in two months, there is no way I would leave her in the care of my family if she isn't "100%" better.

Edit to add: You all do not need to respond. I am just posting here as a way to type out what I am going through. I love that we have a little community here where we can do that.

Max Pass Question

Is there a limit to how many points can be earned?

I did 2 accounts before Christmas, 30x airmilesshop.

Account 1 seems correct. Base miles 10 x 29x = 290 airmiles for maxpass

Account 2 base miles should be 30, 30 x 29x = 870 airmiles but I received 750.

750 doesn't divide evenly by 29 (25.862069...)

Is there a cap? I thought those that did the Dollarama one in Sept/Oct would know, I was out of country so missed it. I've looked all over for cap restrictions.

Just wondering in case there is a next time.

What you had previously described is exactly what our previous dog was doing. I found out in August that his kidneys were failing by approx 20%. He lasted until April when one day it was clear that his time had come.

Happy Friday!

From what I can tell, there was no limit to the earning potential. The more you spent the more you could earn. I glanced back through the terms and conditions and saw nothing obvious, but they're here if you want to comb through more diligently. In the questions below the T&C, the "how much can I earn" also seems to suggest there was no cap.

Thanks Kimbert! I couldn't find anything either. I assume then there is no limit or someone here would have encountered it already. I'll put it on my list of airmiles to follow up.

Thank you again!

I did one of these back in December (purchase and item get 200AM). Still waiting for the bonus to post or 120 days so I can submit and inquiry.

 

[ottawamom]

I opted in for the redeem cash offer. It doesn't say anything about needing to opt in before redeeming, just that you must opt in during the offer period.

I shopped at Metro this morning and redeemed a bunch of AM. Do you think that one will count?
