I have to spend a minimum of $20 at this little burger/sports bar joint (so I'm looking at a minimum of $12.50 out of pocket + tip), but I'll use my linked Dividend Miles Dining credit card to pay for the difference between the gift cert and minimum spend + the tip.

Unless I'm missing something, I think that I just "doubled into the left-center field gap" - 1 hit for Dividend Miles dining (once I go) + 1 hit for Dividend Miles mall purchase, right?
You could have quadrupled by paying for the restaurant.com purchase and the restaurant purchase with any two of the five hit options for payment methods
