Merchant Exclusions:
The following are not eligible to earn AAdvantage miles: Gift certificates, gift cards, Installation Services, Contractor Services, and purchases made from links where the customer is leaving the Homedepot.com web site.

AS OF JUNE 8, 2006 THE HOME DEPOT WILL NOT REWARD THE PURCHASES OF GIFT CARDS!
BUMMER.
Well, my last one posted in june for an April purchase...This is from my AA statement on that period:

04/21/06 ESHOPPING - HOME DEPOT 800 0 800
04/21/06 ESHOPPING-SPRING HOME PROMO 0 400 400
TOTAL MILES POSTED 800 400 1,200

WHY do they make it so hard, eh?
oh well, the other idea about PB kids works I guess.
