To pay a mini-RTW for a family of 4, like I just booked yesterday, one would need to drive his car only 100 times around the world at that special promotion rate. 
(60 aeroplan miles per 500km. 480000/60*500=4million km/40000km=100 rtw)

Just looked up my account and they've only out in regular miles for my Esso purchases since the 4th. Wonder how long before they catch up (if they do). I've got just over 1000 miles there since that day, so the extra 2000 would be nice as they all add up eventually.

I just filled up in BC (North Delta) and there is no mention of this promotion at the point of sale, or on my Visa receipt.
I was awarded standard miles.

Pretty automatic at the pump getting the bonus miles in the past.. and I believe Supreme is triple the regular, so you'll get 9x the regular gas buying supreme on this promo..
I've gassed up my Benz's on this promo on Supreme over the last 15 years and got the triple triple before..

Since this promotion only kicks after 3 purchases, I would not expect the bonus points to post initially. Not sure if the bonus will start posting after the 3rd purchase or in a lump sum at the end of the promo.

This is a nice!
I like Shell, their additive packs keeps my engines cleaner than Esso (tested by doing oil samples) but since they got rid of easypay, I'm going to Esso more often for the convenience of Speedpass.

Usually the bonuses and base points are printed on the bottom of each receipt..
