I hit up my "local" Rexall (Parry Sound for those keeping track), and it's going out of business.
I'm so very sad! We knew when it opened that it was pure madness to have 4 pharmacies plus one in Walmart all within a 2 km stretch of small town. But I loved this store! It was always super clean, the staff were always great, they always had the best clearance prices, and of course, Airmiles!
The one positive? I made out like a bandit today! They're clearing out their food aisles, and my family is going to love me. Boxes of cereal for $1, My hubby's beloved beef-a-roni for 49 cents, Mr Noodles for 9 cents each, and big cans of coffee for $3! Heck yeah!
I split my shop into 3 transactions and used the spend 50, get 110 on all 3 of them, for a total of 492 miles!
Popped into Sobeys for pizza and milk and earned another 122. I got 5x the miles at Shell (not sure of my total, but only spent $50, so not many).
And there will be some more surprise miles because when I was at Rexall, a woman was there shopping the clearance. She doesn't have an airmiles account (what!!!) and the cashier used my card. lol
It was a decent day for me!
Tomorrow I'll walk over to Foodland and grab the bread.
