I ask because simultaneous to this promo is a travel promo where you get bonus miles for hotels/flights/car rentals and that would kill about 1/2 my stars.

I asked for an email yesterday to confirm and have seen nothing.

Anyone know beyond a guess?
This much I know, with the Esso 3X promo, with each $3-fill that I made, there was 1 AP mile awarded, and that was a valid txn, and earned 2 stars.
Then, there was an accompanying BONUS 2 miles, and these DEFINITELY do NOT earn a star.

eg.
May 12 2012 ESSO 3X MILES MAY 2012 PROMO - IMPERIAL OIL LIMITED 2 miles (NO STAR)
May 12 2012 ESSO AEROPLAN MILES - IMPERIAL OIL LIMITED 1 miles (STAR)

Get out there and start pumping/buying ice cream and useless $2 tools!!
