We haven’t seen AIR MILES bonuses for buying gift cards at Safeway since late December but this week the bonuses have returned! These aren’t as good as the December offer of 70 AIR MILES per $50 card but are better than the 55 miles in November. With this offer you’ll earn 1.2 miles per dollar on these cards or if you work the other way, we value AIR MILES at 11 to 15 cents a piece so you are essentially earning $7.70 to $10.50 with each card. You have to print out the coupons and you can find them here
The merchant gift cards included are Spafinder, Bass Pro
Shops, Sears, Roots, Cara Foods, Mark’s, Sport Chek, and Joeys.
I
bought many cards during the last two go rounds for a lot of bonus Air Miles plus
the double Membership Rewards points as I purchased them on my American Express Gold Rewards
card which awards 2 points per dollar spent at grocery stores. Other
credit cards you can look at using to really bump your miles/points
earning on these types of purchases include (earning is per dollar
spent):
American Express Air Miles Reserve Credit Card: 1 Mile/$10BMO AIR MILES World Elite MasterCard: 1 Mile/$10
CIBC Aerogold Visas:
1.5 Miles
CIBC Aventura Visas: 1.5 Points
Scotiabank American Express Platinum/Gold: 4 Points
Scotiabank American Express: 2 Points
Sears Voyage MasterCard: 1.5 Sears Club Points
TD Aeroplan Visas:
1.5 Miles

I’m not sure if I’ll partake this time but who knows my plans change every hour!
