Yesterday at DCA they were handing out cards that if you logged and entered a code from the card you got 400 RDMs extra for that flight. Miles were in my account this morning. Not sure how long this promotion is going to go on.

Any such claim is tripe. The awards are not targeted in any way.

I'm not sure AA IT is even smart enough to know how to do that.

Got my 2nd 4k miles. Around 13k miles for the wife and I and it extended her miles that were going to expire, so not bad all in all.

Final tally of meaningful prizes were 2200 total miles and 2 MCE seat upgrades (I didn't count the 1 Preferred seat upgrade as a meaningful prize since I do have status, albeit a low one). Not bad for a small investment of time!

Across family of 4 (only counting "valuable" prizes):

A: 480 miles
B: 520 miles, preferred seat upgrade (non-elite, but usually doesn't travel without me)
C: 4,840
D: 1,440

Miles should extend A & B's expiration, so I guess that's a good thing too.
