The AIR MILES Event
As part of the SHOP THE BLOCK event, you could earn bonus miles using offers from different partners:
- Use 3 offers, get 300 Bonus Miles
- Use 5 offers, get 800 Bonus Miles
- Use 7 offers, get 1,200 Bonus Miles
And this is in addition to the Bonus Miles earned with the offers! Shop The Block takes place from November 19 to December 28, 2020.

This year’s event requires more expense. This is surprising given that, for most households, spending has tended to decrease as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic!
Here are the offers I intend to accomplish to earn 1,200 Bonus Miles:
Partner | Offer |
American Express | Spend $300 & get 300 Bonus Miles with the American Express® AIR MILES®* Reserve Credit Card |
BMO | Spend $700 & get 250 Bonus Miles |
Airmilesshops.ca | Get 30 Bonus Miles when you spend $100 or more in a single transaction |
Jean Coutu | 20x Miles when you spend $75 or more on almost anything |
Shell | Get 5 AIR MILES Bonus Miles when you fill up with any grade of Shell fuel. Minimum 30 L fuel purchase required. |
IGA Online | 150 Bonus Miles when you spend $100+ on almost anything online during your first order. |
IGA | 50 Bonus Miles when you spend $100+ on almost anything in-store |
The Children’s Place | 30 Bonus Miles when you spend $80 on almost anything in-store or online |
Cook It | 500 Bonus Miles – Order Cook it for the first time |
I should get about 1,050 Bonus Miles with these offers. In addition to the 1,200 Bonus Miles for completing 7 offers: a total of 2,250 Bonus Miles!
Several reminders for those who participate in this event:
- Some offers require online registration
