Analysis
They ran this exact same promo earlier this year and I’m glad to see it return, although I’d prefer a higher bonus. This essentially works out to an extra 2.5X miles per dollar on the $200 in spend. Since the bonus is in addition to the normal earnings, you can do quite well. I still recommend comparing portal rates at a site like Cash Back Monitor to make sure you are getting the best return and don’t forget to maximize your family’s accounts as well!
Happy Shopping!

Says in $500 in spend at the bottom – should be $200
Fixed. Thanks!
