also look at the various airline's "mileage malls" to see if the item(s) you are buying can be purchased through the mall.

Recent example for me was that my wife wanted the new Bose noise reduction headphones. The Bose website offered 1 mile per $ spent. Found another site through the mall selling the same Bose headset for the same price as Bose and was given 4 miles per $ spent.
