Best deal out there for ftd.com purchases?
Since the search feature is currently unavailable, what is the currently the best deal out there for ordering flowers from ftd.com? I have the link for the 20 mile/$ thread, but last July I ordered for 30 miles/$. Thanks!

30 miles per $1 @ FTD thru NWA - if you need to top off a NW acct.

20 miles is the best UA offer I've found.

There was a thread with 30 miles per $1 last wek. I used it and it took the miles only 2 days to show up . I don't have access to the address right now but if you PM me I'll get it to you tonight (If you can't find it on FT).

Since this is of more general interest than just United, and since the question is about the "best deal" (again, not United-specific), I am moving this to MilesBuzz where it will get maximum exposure for suggestions for a variety of sources.

If you aren't necessarily looking for FF miles, Goldpoints is offering 100 points per $1 spent. I always use them when ordering flowers.

No actually, my question was specifically posed to earning Mileage Plus miles.

My bad for not being specific in my question.

Our intrepid researcher, Patrick, put together a big chart on miles and points for Valentine's flowers in the latest edition of InsideFlyer. Here's the link:

I hate FTD, they have messed up my order in more than one occasion

This year I am sending some early flowers to the wife via www.proflowers.com

I don't get miles, just a few www.mypoints.com

I rather sacrifice the miles than experience the frustration of the flowers not being delivered

The 30mile/$ offer is still good for 1k members. It's 20/$ for the rest of us.

Nope, the offer was marketed to United 1Ks but it works for anyone with a Mileage Plus account. This has been verified over and over.

Perhaps she didn't realize it -- perhaps she was either already logged in, or their internal network doesn't require authentication to access their own websites? Cut Maria some slack, or consider subscribing? :-: @:-)

It's also not so tough to be polite.
