FAST AA 20/20 Posting!!!

Wow. I ordered from 1-800-Flowers.com two days ago on 16 July. The miles posted today, 18 July. I don't even have the merchandise yet!

Same thing happened to me last week when I ordered from Orvis on Monday. Miles showed up on Wed and the package came on Friday. If they were all so easy ...

I got my Orvis miles pretty quickly too! But I never received that one fly that I bought -- not that I cared for it!

WooHoo!

Almost forgot to mention, Erin Go Bragh posts in three to four days after mailing pretty incredible.

I ordered some close-out nuts from Hickory Farms ($4.95 plus S/H), and the miles posted in less than a week. I subsequently discovered that there was a free shipping code.

Erin Go Bragh is lightning fast!

Orvis posted less than a week after I ordered; Hickory Farms took about a week. Both ftd.com and 1800flowers.com posted in about 10 days for me.

I just found the post in question. Unfortunately, I'm new here and don't know how to post just the URL, so here's the full message (originally posted by anz5708)
Hickory Farms is offering free shipping through July 31, enter FREESHIP in the promotion code field. The offer says for their newsletter subscribers but try the FREESHIP anyway. If that doesn't work, subscribe to the newsletter.
Also, they are having a super Nut sale. Item 008104 is $2.99, giftpack of nuts.


Incidentally, for those who might have toyed with the idea (OK, maybe I did too , of using these nuts as Christmas presents, the closeout items seem to be items approaching their expiration date. I'm sure they won't be lethal in a few short months, but the expiration date is prominently printed on the box, and it might look just a tad tacky

I think I ordered those same $4.95 closeout nuts from Hickory Farms for $2.99. Someone had posted about a special "free shipping" offer for HF's email newsletter recipients. Although I don't get the newsletter, I tried it anyway and it worked. Just put "freeship" in the code box when you are completing your order. I did this on Monday. Hasn't posted yet, but I did get an "en route" e-mail today.

Hey thanks you guys!

Just bought some HICKORY FARMS butter spray, item 017000 (they were out of the 2.95 nuts) for $3.95 and I used the FREESHIP code.

They took the order, let's see what happens.

Thanks again!

I ordered the Cinnamon Syrup on closeout (for Eggos) and received email today announcing that the order was shipped yesterday. Nice customer service.

(But hasn't posted yet)

I ordered from Hickory Farms and just receieved an email telling me my item is on back order. I just assume they don't send the nuts but give me my miles and call it a day!

Hey...I just checked again today and Orvis posted my miles for an order placed just two days ago. I've not received my order from them yet, either.

How do you get miles through Erin Go Bragh. What is that? How do I do it? There's nothing quite like peace of mind when it comes to getting miles so quickly and hassle free from a partner.

As SuzanneSLO says, "If they were all so easy..." We'll I guess that's why we fly free in first class, right?

Also, FWIW, I made a Hickory Farms purchase as well. In fact, I made all the necessary partner purchases on 16 and 17 July! 20 partners in two days. Now, let's see if I get the miles in time!
