Thanks Jaymar01

I got it for $17.95 when I signed up for the subscription service (which seems to be necessary for the miles). I'll just cancel after my first shipment if I don't care for the water. $18 is not bad for 2500 miles and 24 Fiji waters...

Also signed up for the subscription and will cancel after first shipment. Thanks.

Someone on slickdeals said they called the fiji customer service number to ask about what qualified for miles. They were told even one-time orders would receive miles through the link. YMMV of course.

Also signed up for the subscription and will cancel after first shipment. Thanks.

Me too! Thanks!!!

totally off the mileage topic but I have to say I would never buy fiji water. It takes something ridiculous like .5 liters of fuel to bring every 1 liter bottle of water here to the USA. (I imagine that would include fuel used in production of the plastic bottles and shipping to and from fiji and of course the shipping required to move WATER from like 6000 miles away, to the USA. It also used nearly seven TIMES as much water in the overall production process than the amount or water that is ultimatly delivered.

I really like their recent ads in NYC, about how this was the best stuff of the earth, picture of the earth with a bottle of fiji above it. As if, using all that fuel and water to produce and transport water was totally irrelevant to the earth.

I know, I'm makinga a statement here that has nothing to do with earning 2500 delta miles.

Very valid concerns.

We do get Fiji sometimes as our local H2O is "treated" with Chlorine, Fluorine, Alum and few other wonderful things. The 2 stage filter we use supposedly gets rid of everything except fluorine and until we can get a r/o filter we will be getting a little Fiji now and then...but yes it does eat at us.

miles for under 0.7 cpm,
don't have to fly,
and free (environmentally incorrect) water....

sure, I'll take one!

...thanks to OP.

It only gave me 30% off. But $21 for 2500 miles and 24 bottles of water isn't awful. Just have to remember to cancel after I get it. Or do we need to wait til we see the miles?

And to help everyone here this is how to cancel:

Should you choose to modify your service please call customer service at 888-426-4602 or email HomeDelivery@FIJIWater.com.

Thanks to the OP! Will cancel after first shipment. Great deal. :D

You are correct. Once you start listing your elite status in frequency bus/train programs that are so much more fuel efficient than the airline programs you trumpet, I will take your screed more seriously.

Until then, this will be consigned to where it belongs........:rolleyes:

By the way, influence your elected representatives to remove the subsidy that such food receives when shipped from afar ( I believe it is taxed less, as well) if you are so upset about this. :td:

Finally, I will not take advantage of this promotion regardless of its cost benefit analysis because I think it is a waste of money, as well as because of enviromental concerns, to buy bottled water.

Tap water is fine for me.

As someone who already buys Fiji water at the store this is a great deal. I didn't realize you could get it shipped to your house for no extra charge.

It's a pretty good price with the discount. Without it, I'd definitely recommend buying it at Trader Joe's. ;)

dear mods, please merge this with a thread under delta airlines

also has anyone cancel their order, how that i read the fine prints, it says
"This offer is not combinable with other savings or promotions."
i am guessing this means any coupon or discounts

Thanks OP.

Good deal here. Love FIJI water and the bonus miles are great plus.

I just really like square bottles ... and Delta miles .... and water delivered to my house. Works for me :D

.....i read the fine prints, it says
"This offer is not combinable with other savings or promotions."

Ouch ! This could be a bad deal.
Take away either the 2500 miles OR the discount
and I would not have signed up.

Hard to say which would invalidate the other.....
but the first page specifically said 2500 miles and $29.95 for the water..

This may end up a lesson in using unknown promo codes,
i.e. a bunch of expensive water on my doorstep. :eek:

I received no confirming email,
nor do I think they promised one,
but is anybody getting confirmations?

I have received no confirmation e-mail when I placed my recurring order for $17.97 per month yesterday. What's weird though is that I did receive the following e-mail a few minutes ago after placing an item in my cart and not completing the order (to validate that coupon codes were expired):

"We know you're thirsty!
We noticed that you started to place an order ...but, you must have been distracted. We know you would never miss an opportunity to experience the finest artesian water nature has to offer.

If they are sending out e-mails for uncompletes orders, you would think that they would also send out e-mails for completed orders?

Wasn't it Fiji that got in a scuffle with Cleveland about the quality of water a few years ago?

Found it (http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2007/biz2/0701/gallery.101dumbest_2007/20.html)

I have to say I would never buy fiji water.
Good job! I extend that to any bottled water (assuming I'm in an area with otherwise drinkable water). Even our company has banned bottled water.

codes don't seem to work anymore, but 'cabin30' still gives you 30% off.

Thank you so much for your interest in FIJI Water Home Delivery. At this time, our home delivery service is limited to the continental United States and to Hawaii/Alaska . Please note that your order has been cancelled, and your credit card will not be charged. As we look to new markets and grow as a business, this could definitely change.

:confused:

soapbox...Americans throw away 2.5 million plastic water bottles every hour. Please drink filtered tap whenever possible.

Weird for sure. But if you want the miles badly enough I'll take your water. lol

Great offer.

We recycle all of our bottles of water.

We recycle all of our bottles of water.

It is great to recycle, keeps it out of a landfill. But, the fact of the matter is that there is really nothing much one can do with plastic bottles, and it is more effort to recycle them than to reproduce them. Someday, hopefully, we'll figure out what to do with waste platics. Till then, it will just pile up -but not in a landfill.

Glass bottles are actually BETTER, but of course simply purifying water is tops.

Absolutely true, if you can filter your water well. Most municipal supplies have some amounts of major contaminants such as perchlorate, arsenic, lead and even trihalomethanes from chlorine use as a residual disinfectant.

Most of the commercial filters: Brita, Pur, etc. filter some of the nasties, but leave the chlorine and fluoride. (When you check the labels most will say they filter chlorine taste...a, gee thanks, that makes it all better)

Some of the better filters will get even more of the nasties and also the chlorine, but not the fluoride.

The only filter that will get out fluoride is reverse osmosis, but that uses aluminum and some people are reporting toxic levels of aluminum in their drinking water. (Aluminum is toxic and builds up in the brain)

The best combination would be some kind of whole house R/O on the way in and another filter in the kitchen for drinking water to get the aluminum out and re-mineralize and raise the ph of the water.

Yes, this comment belongs in OMNI.

This thread is about getting miles for cheap, the water is just a bonus (and worth about $4 IMO as I don't pay much more than that for a case of water).

As for plastic bottles, I usually refill my water bottles for the gym but there are times and places where it makes far more sense to bring disposable bottles.

Our case arrived today--still waiting for the miles to post!

My water arrived today as well. Did anyone notice how long the T&C said it would take to get the miles?

From an email Fiji sent me: "Your sky miles will be applied within 5 business days.".

My case of 12 one liter bottles arrived today, also used the Pinkberry coupons for 2 for 1 this afternoon that are offered here in the wonderful forums. Will print more and go back tomorrow. We are having a heat wave here in Santa Barbara, 80 degrees for 12 days straight, hotter than any summer months. Great time for a yougurt store to open in town.

From an email Fiji sent me: "Your sky miles will be applied within 5 business days.".

Have your miles yet?

Nothing yet. I'll probably wait till tomorrow, then email Fiji again.

I used the 40% coupon so was worried about miles posting. Earlier this week, I replied to the shipping confirmation e-mail with a question about when my miles would post. This is the response I got.
"Thank you for your online purchase. Your sky miles will be applied within 3 weeks. If you have any questions please contact us?" So, it seems I have a little waiting to do. But at least I have some confirmation that I'll get the miles.

For those who want more miles for beverages, check out the current Vinesse Wine Club offer in the NW and DL forums. The NW deal is even better than the Fiji deal, 4500 miles for $42, but the promo expires 31 Jan. (Also Fiji water is pretty good, I doubt the wines are ;) )

Too bad there's no comment field where you can indicate to them that you don't really want them to ship the ordered merchandise to you... they can just open the cap and pour it down the nearest sink if they have to for inventory purposes.

:)

Read the fine print:

Offer for 2,500 Skymiles is valid on purchases of 3 cases or more ONLY. SkyMiles will not be awarded if purchase

All prices include Shipping & Handling, taxes and CRV where applicable. Prices and terms of offer may change
without notice. Please call 1-888-426-4602 for further details on FIJI Water Delivery Service.

And it's now $29.95 per case. Still not a bad deal, though!

Bold and italics mine. The T&Cs when I ordered didn't say 3 cases...maybe they were flooded with orders.

I know you are trying to be funny, but there are many countries where pure drinking water is at a premium. So if you don't need it you should donate it to the Red Cross or have it shipped to a local homeless shelter. :)

I started to place my order and the discount code, from the OP, did not work. Came back to re-read the thead. While I was away from the browser where I had the Fiji order underway, the transaction must have timed out. I got an email from them asking what happened and why I had not finished. They must have captured the data even when I did not finish the purchase,

From an email Fiji sent me: "Your sky miles will be applied within 5 business days.".I am guessing that NO MILES have posted yet -- for anyone -- correct?

How many are going to continue 'waiting for the miles to post'?

If this shipment is 'monthly', then how soon do we need to cancel before the next shipment comes?

Was told by CS agent today that miles would be posted soon (I ordered Jan 9) and Fiji intends to honor all submissions, coupon or not. She was under the impression that a one-time buy then cancellation would still count for the miles (although she didn't sound convincing).

I got my delivery two weeks ago. Sent an email a few days ago and they said the miles would post w/h 3 weeks. Canceled today. Hoping for the miles but no time (and money) to waste on playing games with them :)

Hi all,

Below is the reply I got from Fiji when I e-mailed them regarding the posting of miles a few days ago. It looks like they are still going to honor the skymiles offer for all (irregardless of the use of a coupon).

"We apologize for the inconvenience, but because this is our first launch of a promo such as this it will take a little longer then 3 weeks. We are in fact honoring the Delta Sky Miles so please be patient with us. I don’t have an estimated time, but I do know that we are working on the processing of these miles."

Hope this helps put some concerns people may have had!

FYI...

Came this morning from Delta. Woo-hoo!

Came from SkyMiles@mpmvp.com. mpmvp.com redirects to https://www.nwa.com/worldperks/buymiles.shtml. Not sure if it was sent by the company handling the promo or what.

Do you think this offer would work if I reside in Canada? I just need a few points to keep my account from not expiring in 3 months....

The original deal is dead.
You now need to buy three cases and you cannot use any promo codes for discounts.

My miles posted!

Mine too :).

My miles also posted this morning!

2500 DL miles posted this morning. In the end, was a great deal... case of nice water delivered and $45 or so worth of miles (by my CPM useage) for $17 and change (I used the original discount code and got the subscription... canceled a couple days after it arrived with no problems).

woo-hoo!

$17.97 for 2517 skymiles!

I'll take it.

My points posted too and I didn't even get the email

Got the email yesterday and the miles today. thanks OP.

I signed up for this, but early posts suggested
the coupon and miles could be incompatible.

Not wanting complications, I immediately sent an email cancelling.
About a week later FIJI replied the order was indeed canceled.

Then the email yesterday and 2500 points posted today !

Lets see....that's just about....0.00 cpm. :D
...still drinking tap water. Thanks OP !
