Airmiles Rewards- the curse that keeps giving

I am mad about Air Miles reward miles. so I go to great lengths to get them. I even find out which people, we know or vaguely know, are going to sell their homes and get them to agree, for me to refer them to a Cent. 21 Real Estate Company Agent, so I can get more Air Miles, 200 to be exact.

I scour the flyers every week looking for Airmiles at the local stores. Buy $50.00 of Ivory soap and get 100 airmiles. We have enough soap to last 2 years. So far I have redeemed enough airmiles for 4 fights across Canada. A Stereo, Digital Camera,Printer & Gift Certificates for Christmas Pressies. I even have two credit cards that give Airmiles when you use them.

To say I have an obsession for Airmiles would be an understatement. Even after all that stuff, I still have a whack of them Airmiles and there is more stuff I want. Which I need, need, need, more Airmiles for. There is never enough Airmiles, I go to all the merchants who honour the card and usually pay more for the same items. Just to get moreeeeeeeeeee.

The other day, I went to Lawtons ( local Chemist Shop) looking for Soy Isoflavone Complex.

If you never heard of this, you are not alone. Maybe because your spouse hasn't hit Menopause yet. Well I am finally getting to my point after going all around the houses.

I have been looking for this for some time as there has been 40 extra airmiles when you spend $15.00 on Webbers Vitamins and Minerals. Also it is very hard to find the Soya pills.. So I went to Lawtons and asked them if they still made this product or has there been a recall or something..

The store clerk thought I was from another planet. Trying to explain how to spell the item; let alone say it. Well Ginny had already only 6 months supply in the cuboard and well there was 40 AIRMILESSSSSSSSSSSSSS. So we need it.

So I went in today to see if they had any. I didn't want to waste money on a lot of things I do not need. Remember every time you spend $15.00; you get to get more AIRMILESSSSSSSSSSSS. So I bought all they had. Now as each bottle is only $11.39, I need more of something made by Webbers to make up the difference.

So I pick up, A&D vitamins, B16, Chromium,Folic Acid(good if your pregnant, not needed when you are menopauseal), Saw Palementto ( makes smaller prostate). Had no idea what it was for but it helped to add up to the required $15.00 and then some,so I bought it checked it out at home. Need it, only for the Airmiles.

Of course I only looked at the price of each item to see that it was $15.00 for two things or just a little over. To make matters worse I stood in a long line up at the check out and dutifully used my credit card and airmiles card for each mulitple of 15.00 dollar purchses to insure that I was credited with the extra bonus amounts of.................. (Glad I am not wasting any money, on stuff we do not need.)

WHAT, DO I HEAR YOU," GROAN AND SAY ; AIRMILESSSSSSS." Yes the dreaded Airmiles. More, More,Moreee. HA,HA,HA,HA! Little mad scientist thrown in there for effect.

Of course the clerk thought I am completely mental and I am. I now can get more stuff from the Airmiles Catalogue. Wait I just got an email from ,you guessed it Airmiles. There is another sale, I got to go. Only have to drive 100 miles to the nearest Rona Hardware Store.

HEY, Mermaid . How many Toilet Seats do you want!!!!!!!!!!!!! 10 or 12 Yay, more AIRMILESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.
