I did 380 boxes of corn flakes for 38,000 miles. Cost $1.25 per box. + chartible deduction.
Tips:
1. Go to the ordering supervisor and order case lots. Let them know if it is a donation to the food bank as they might give you a price break.
2. Buy address labels and print them from your computer with your AA # on them.
3. Mail them all together to save postage and the possibility of confusion with multi posts of miles. Mine posted within 3 weeks of sending them.
4. For me, using a sharp adjustable razor knife and leaving the cereal in the box worked best.

Dingo: Details of the Kellogg's cereal promotion are on the website. Go here:
http://www.kelloggs.com/
And there is a link on the middle-right hand of the page for AAdvantage miles. That takes you to the cereal promotion - there is a stated expiration date of November 2001. For the other promotions - just buy a box and the rules are included.

On the spam board there was a post re kmart last week selling the pastry swirls at 33% off--but just checked my mailbox and my kmart here in az has an ad for the kelloggs pastry swirls 2 for $3 thru the end of week.Now hopefully they have the certs on the back.This would be so much easier if we could only send in upc's

I volunteer in a soup kitchen some days and have noticed NutriGrain bars offered now for breakfast. These are great as some of them even put them in their pocket for later. Oddly enough, I haven't seen any empty boxes lying around, just individually wrapped bars.

Regarding drtravel's suggestion to order by the case: When I did this at my local Market Basket they said they couldn't tell from the outside of the carton if the boxes inside had airplanes on them or not. I explained what it was all about, and that it was "no airplanes, no deal." They understood & agreed to open my cases to check when they came in. Fortunately, they all had airplanes! If you do this, be sure you reach the same understanding with your store.
