Finally I decided on a coffee grinder for around 1800 points. I checked out and got my notification that the item was ordered and my points dropped the 1400.Going back on the reward site I now noticed a lot more items listed under my 3200 point level. And things that I would really like to have.I immediately called Air Miles and was on hold for just under 2 hours. I explained what happened to the agent, and was assured that Air Miles does not hide items based on someones points…
