I guess it helps to look a little closer - I have received the 500 bonus miles for spending $150 or more in January. It posted with the date of 1/17/09 so it was further down the list.

It looks like we don't get that $150 spend bonus for 2009 membership year. Boo! I'm glad we went out last night to push me over for Feb.
I also got a new March Offer (mod- do you want to update the thread title or split it out?)

I got the same spend $75, earn 500 bonus miles. Not such a good deal, IMHO as last month they had the VIP Select Bonus offering 2000 bonus miles for $150 in spending. Yet another example of how RN is cutting back/devaluating the program.

Not so smart. We're both thinking like true FTers! And I actually like your idea of buying a $25 gift card one day and then paying for the balance of your meal with your credit card the next. That way there is no way they can say only one bonus per restaurant per day, or something like that!
Let's say the check is >$50, do you think you could split the check between two different cards? Would that count as 2 dines?
I could split it between my debit and my husband's amex, both registered to the rewards network.
You need to read the fine print. The rate your dine bonus states "Limit one qualified dine per participating restaurant per member per calendar day toward this bonus." So unless you split it between two different members (not cards) it won't work.
