With summer behind us and back-to-school season in full swing, many of us are struggling to find a balance between enjoying the last few warm days with our family and getting the kids ready for the various activities planned for them this school year.

Whether heading off for those last few cottage weekends or just getting from Point A to Point B to grab school supplies missing on your list, this most mobile time of year can make managing one’s budget seem like an impossible task. And we know all that running around can come with a hefty price tag.

While this process can be stress-inducing for many, it need not to be. Wherever you’re off to, AIR MILES and Shell are determined to give you a hand, so you can continue to prep for the busy school days ahead.

As an AIR MILES Collector, did you know that you could use your AIR MILES Cash Miles at Shell locations across Canada? That’s right, all you have to do is present your AIR MILES Card instore or insert it at the pump to use your Cash Miles on fuel, car washes, snacks or any other convenienc­e store purchases. Ninety-five Cash Miles gets you $10 off eligible purchases and — let’s be frank — those savings can really help keep soaring expenses under control.

What’s great is that at Shell, not only can you use the Cash Miles in your account, but you can also continue to get Miles on eligible purchases at all their locations.

There are plenty of other ways to get and use your Cash Miles and save money, too — for instance, by shopping at AIR MILES Cash Partners online or in-store or by taking advantage of AIR MILES promotions. They run periodical­ly and allow you to get more Miles on eligible purchases at participat­ing Partner locations across the country. To stay in-the-know and to receive offers designed specifical­ly for you, make sure you’ve opted in to receive AIR MILES communicat­ions by checking your notificati­on preference­s from your profile.

And next time you head out on the road, don’t forget your BMO®* AIR MILES® Mastercard®† to receive two times the Miles for every $20 spent at participat­ing AIR MILES Partners1, including Shell, Sobeys, Safeway, IGA, Rexall and more. For a limited time, new sign-ups to the no-annual-fee credit card will receive 500 Bonus Miles!

Thanks to AIR MILES and Partners like Shell, daily costs for things like gas, groceries and experience­s are more manageable, meaning budgeting just got a whole lot easier. So why not beat the kids’ back-to-school blues by treating them to a movie, or using your Cash Miles towards groceries for a family BBQ? Less time spent worrying over money means more quality time spent with the people who make your life so special: your loved ones. And that’s worth every Mile. $20 spent at participat­ing AIR MILES Partners. A list of participat­ing AIR MILES Partners can be found at bmo.com/moremiles. Accelerato­r Reward Miles will be calculated on the total eligible cumulative spend at all participat­ing AIR MILES Partners made during your most recent account statement. Accelerato­r Reward Miles earned are issued in whole numbers only. For example, if your total eligible purchases made at participat­ing AIR MILES Partners totalled $248, then 24 Reward Miles would be issued at the Accelerato­r rate ($248 divided by $20 equals 12.4, times 2 equals 24.8). Offer is cumulative over the statement period. Award of AIR MILES Reward Miles is made for purchases charged to your account (less refunds and excluding cash advances, cashlike transactio­ns, interest charges, fees, credit or debit adjustment­s) and is subject to the AIR MILES Reward Program Terms and Conditions and the BMO Mastercard Cardholder Agreement. The number of Miles will be rounded down to the nearest whole number. Fractions of Miles will not be awarded.
