That's the same response I got when I asked about Neiman Marcus/Bergdorf Goodman and iGourmet when they left the program. Hopefully - based on the email FLgrr received, it is indeed temporary in Durgstore's case, but I think the answer you received was the generic reply they send whenever there is an inquiry about a merchant leaving the program. I wish NM would come back too!!!

If you need to order stuff right now... They're still partnered with airmilesmart.com where you can earn Starwood points, which can then be transferred to AA. However you don't earn as much and need to transfer in blocks of 500.

The Gap is gone, too. . This is not good. A lot more stores have vanished from the program.

As are all of the Gap properties, like Old Navy, which blows the heck out of my back to school shopping. That happened about a month or two ago, actually.

I don't see the Gap brands on any other airline or hotel shopping sites either. I will say, I'm pretty excited about Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn and Victoria's Secret being added though. Been wishing for those for years.^

I'm showing Gap still at the UAL Mileage Plus Mall.

I found quite a few of my usual Drugstore.com purchases at the GNC store that also has a really good earning rate.

Drugstore.com back; 3 miles per $

Didn't it used to be more? I'm definitely going to switch what I can over to GNC.com since they are at 5/$ and still have free shipping and no sales tax.

Still no Gap/Banana, iGourmet, or Neiman's/Bergdorff Goodman. I guess those are gone for good.

Used to be 4mi/$ (and sometimes even 8, when they had double mileage promotions). What is GNC - do they sell most of what drugstore.com does?

I was afraid of that... Oh well, 3 is better than 0.

The physical GNC stores sell vitamins and health supplements, but the online version also has a fairly large selection of bathroom products and toiletries. Not nearly as much as found at Drugstore.com, but I did find some of the items I had been purchasing through Drugstore.com.

Yes, but as discussed in the previous posts, it now earns fewer miles

Yay, I'll take 3 points over no points.

Gaps back too

I was shopping around today and low and behold, Gap is back on the site:

https://www.aadvantageeshopping.com/details.jsp?mrc=1

I think the miles per dollar is the same as it was before (2/$) right?
