Evan!

The wording of the footnote make me wonder if a purchase is required to get the 500 miles.

*You must download the toolbar and perform at least 1 toolbar search and or make 1 toolbar purchase with a participating toolbar retailer before June 30, 2010 to earn the 500 mile bonus. Bonus miles will post to your AAdvantage account within 8 to 10 weeks after the promotion end date.

Let us say the wording was just "and" and not "and or". This obviously would mean that a purchase is required to get the 500 miles.

Let us say the wording was just "or" and not "and or". This obviously would mean that a search alone would get the bonus. But how could one make a purchase without doing a search?

Q: Will I qualify for the 500-mile bonus by JUST doing 1 search?
Q: Some posts make it sound like they already got the miles - 8 to 10 weeks or not? IOW, has anyone gotten the 500 mile bonus and, if so, did you make a purchase?
