Lots of Airmiles!!!!

Ok...this post sounds very complicated....think about it step by step.  As many of my followers know, I am a Cheapskate. I am working very hard with my hubby to pay off our house by June 2018. Our goal is to drive to Nashville and see Dave Ramsey and do our Debt Free Scream. After that trip we plan to go to Walt Disney World for 5 days, and then Universal Studios, Sea World and home.  I have discovered that if I collect 33,000 airmiles we will get our Disney Vacation part for free. We are currently sitting at 25000. Gathering Airmiles is my second area I am focused on after making the budget small and throwing all money at the mortgage. This week I found an amazing Airmiles Promotion. Here goes:

Airmiles has a promotion buy $ 200 in Sobeys gift cards get 95 miles
I bought 5 sets for 475 miles
I charged on my Sobeys Master Card earning 1 mile every $20 spent, it is 50 miles right away
Because in the  first 3 months I get 3x miles base miles charged at Sobeys is extra 150 miles
AS AN EXTRA BONUS...
This week Sobeys has promo buy 50$ gift card for  Boston pizza get 60 miles 
I bought $200 worth and paid using my 200 Sobeys gift card I just bought earning 240 miles...
For a total of $1000 in Sobeys gift cards I  earned 915 airmiles!!!!!

Now, I know that looks like a lot of money tied up in gift cards, but remember to read my other blogs. A Sobeys gc is able to be used at Sobeys, Shell and Lawtons Drug Store. I can also buy other gift cards with my Sobeys gift card.  My month budget will be funded with these gift cards.
