New 1-800-FLOWERS.COM offer from Delta - 2,500 miles.

Found this new offer under "Holiday Offers" at Delta.com:

1-800-FLOWERS.COM
Earn 2,500 bonus miles when you shop and create holiday memories at 1-800-FLOWERS.COM.

Visit 1-800-FLOWERS.COM and enter promotion code DL7 and your SkyMiles number at checkout, or call 1-800-FLOWERS (1-800-356-9377).
Offer good through December 15, 2007

This is 500 more miles than the previous DL5 offer.

As stated before, this offer can be paired with the 1-800-FLOWERS.COM $25 E-Cards available at mycokerewards.com.

Thanks for posting this...it will help to quickly put us over the top for the miles needed for Hawaii (assuming we can get seats.)

FYI, when I checked the website I found the expiration date had been extended until the end of the year:

"1-800-FLOWERS.COM®

But the burning question is still can the delta flower deal be done more than once for miles?

Ok something has to give here.. either they need to stock up on travel awards or I need to find a new way to get something from these codes or mcr points

I looked at the travel awards moments ago and they had count em.. five awards total and that includes one crappy magazine subscription.. what a friggin joke this is turning out to be (referring to the extension of this promo) so far

No doubt. I am sitting at 3600+ points right now. If something appears, I'll no doubt dump my points into it (and I imagine I am not alone). Will make it tough for anyone trying to redeem.

Wish they would re-re-introduce the PC Points. I dumped a bunch that day they were back but they disappeared before I could use all my points.

OK, at the risk of spoiling what I am going for:

Starting at midnight eastern time on the first day of the month, start searching for the rewards you want. For five months in a row there has been a significant restock sometime in the wee hours on the first of the month. Maybe longer, five months is just how long I've notice this phenomenon. By wake-up time, most of these items are gone. Some of the items, such as Simon gift accounts, have vanished from the site in mid-month only to return at the end of the month.

Also, some folks might find the Adidas and Tayler Made gift cards useful, although the former is available right now only in the $200 demonination. I've got some very nice shoes and clothes using these cards. My traveling shoes, in fact, so there's a travel item, right?

Warning on the Simon gift accounts: it appears to be impossible to use the full amount. It's a Visa "card" that exists only on-line. To convert it to a plastic card you pay a $5.95 fee. To use it online you will lose a dollar or two because the merchant will ping your account with that amount to verify the address, temporarily reducing the balance. Also, since to the merchant it looks like a Visa card, so far I have not found a single one that will let me use it plus another form of payment. So with a $25 Simon account, one has to find a purchase that comes to precisely $23 or $24 to maximize the benefit. Some online merchants will let you buy gift cards in any denomination, so that's one way to use a Simon account -- and possibly double-dip miles or points through a shopping portal, if the merchant gives points for gift card purchases (I've found I get green points for buying gift cards with just about any merchant, when I cannot get miles from my favorite airline).
No, Simon will not let you combine the orphaned dollar or two from multiple accounts. They got to make money somehow.

I've had success purchasing $25 gift cards from Best Buy. BB will shipp the cards for free and then I can use them in the store or online. I have read others have bought $25 Amazon gift certs as well; while others use it to knock $25 off of a bill. Just a few things to consider if they are ever available again.

...AND, if you access 1800flowers.com via Skymiles shopping, do you also get the 10 Skymiles per dollar in addition to the 2500 Skymiles DL7 bonus?

Is anyone else having a problem entering codes today? Every time I send a code in I get a message that I maxed for the day even though I didn't enter any yet today.

I've had an awful time entering codes today. Thank you for mentioning this. I'll try again another day.

When I tried entering my usual 10 each day at 3:00 p.m. Central Time, it told me I have already maxed out for the day.

I was able to enter 8 codes today, but for the past week or so the Website has been very slow. My letters appear on time-delay & it won't let me control the curser to make corrections. Also, clicking on the kind of drink the cap came from is difficult.

It never seems to let me control the cursor to make corrections to letters.

UPDATE: As of 8PM Eastern, I was able to enter codes both from my mobile phone and on the website. So it seems that whatever was delaying things is cleared up.
