Smile AA Miles for $0.00072 per mile (AA Shopping) - NOT HONORED
Attention mileage whores -- if you purchase "MOTOROKR™ S305 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones" from aadvantageeshopping.com for $59.99 from Verizon Wireless (yes, about $20 over-price), you will get 83,871 American Airline miles ($0.00072 per mile plus a free headset to resell!) normally (at $0.03 per air mile, the retail cost of 83,871 miles would be $2,516.13!!)

Be sure to save screen shots your transaction(s) if AA Shopping baulks at buying 100 pair of these!

DIRECT LINK: https://www.aadvantageeshopping.com/...=MOTOROKR+S305

It should be the 4th item in the list. Look closely!

For those that can't print the screen with this offer, I have uploaded it as a PDF here: http://chazhome.com/images/AAMiles.pdf

Smart move to purchase with AMEX to get buyer assurance.

Thank for all the comments!!

- Chaz

P.S.: Thanks to "deltagoldflyer" for this similar find!!

A "Touchstone Standalone Inductive Desktop Charger" for $4.96 for 83871 AA miles (according to AA e-shopping's website!)

How exactly are you calculating this. Unlike most other vendors, the Verizon Wireless link does not state "per dollar."

Yes, I see nothing indicating that many miles would be earned....
edit: of course, things have progressed from this point !

Your post got me all excited, but I believe the 1258 miles listed is per purchase, not per dollar. I don't think it's going to work out in the end, unfortunately.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the T&C states that miles are not earned on accessory purchases from Verizon:

Reward eligible for reward plans only (new service, family share, add a line, upgrade and prepay) reward is not eligible on accessories.
