Thanks guys I used e-rewards for 250 miles. Not sure how long it'll take to post.

I think BW points are always great to have in your back pocket. I saved mine over the course of 3-4 years and had nearly 100K from two BW MC churns. That paid for 3 nights at a brand new NYC BW and saved me close to $1500 US. I'd say that was well worth going through that hassle twice for me!

I recommend e-Rewards ONLY if you just need some account activity.

In terms of value for time spent,
it doesn't make sense to spend time completing these e-Rewards surveys.

I do them while I watch TV. They take no thought.

Exactly! I've gotten about 10K AA points a year... BTW you get more opportunities if you put a US address
And I also have a e-miles account for Alaska Airlines too!

Nope, sorry.
NOT open to Canadians.

"Open to legal residents of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia who are at least 18 years of age"

I've been doing this for several years and only get 1/2 that amount. Are you using a US address or is it simply that you're a different demographic??

Likely a demographics thing. The most specific surveys give many more points/dollars, easily above 1$/min indicated

Every AA promo has that wording. And to date, every AA promo I know of has worked for Canadians.

Not sure if it's the right place but Aeroplan is collecting (and donating itself) for the Red Cross to help in the Fort McMurray exacuations.

I'm sure lots of us could spare a few miles.
