*Blockbuster, FTD, Gamefly, Netflix, Teleflora and Vinesse enrollments/purchases do not qualify for this promotion."
The list, just under this is titled:
OTHER SPECIAL BONUS MILE OFFERS
and is not a list of eligible mall merchants.
As was mentioned by ExitRowAisle, the T&C state:
Purchases of merchant gift certificates will not qualify for this promotion except Giftcertificates.com and Home Depot.
So Home Depot (and GiftCertificates.com) gift certificates do qualify.
Pevo: Yes, recently my son used a 10% off cert with a gift card. In fact, he just told them he had ordered the cert from the Home Depot Website, but hadn't received it and they gave him the discount.
Marathon Man: I was using AFAIK to abbreviate As Far As I Know, not to indicate a source of gift cards.
thanks for that info. I was reluctant to go searching--and possibly attempting to call into NWA to find out more. I will get some HD cards.
I have to laugh...
I saw AFAIK and started to think of AFLAK and that screaming duck on their commercials. So I knew AFAIK wasnt them but I figured it was some company.
I am having a blonde moment and am not even a blonde. Oh well.

The T&C for Home Depot gift cards state:
"You may use this Gift Card toward all in-store purchases at any The Home Depot store, EXPO Design Center, or The Home Depot Supply (SM) store." (emphasis added)
"This Gift Card may not be applied toward Tool Rental deposits and/or purchases made outside of a store. This includes, but is not limited to, online purchases, phone sales,"
So I guess if there is a GC that can be obtained for a discount, it is only useful in store, meaning you dont get miles, you get only a discount. That's fine but for me, miles are better. (there are other threads on whether or not people think miles are better than money/cash back)
I would be able to get many HD GCs, get the boni from this promo, and then top off an acct that needs mileage in it now, before this promo ends. I would use those cards at any time, from now til whenever!
So it works for me, thanks.
