If you have an AMEX either linked to an airline, or hotel you will get miles. The DL card is doing double miles for ALL purchases right now.
And, if a regular AMEX, you can also earn miles and transfer to airline of your choice.

In all seriousness? Go to Safeway. If you have a Safeway card, that is linked to UAL's program. And then, charge the purchase to a credit card that gets you miles.</font>

"In all seriousness"... I was asking the question more in gest. And, yes, if you buy $250-worth of turkey-day-stuff at Safeway stores (including Von's, Dominicks), you get a whopping 125 miles.

Happy Turkey Day to all!
Randall's grocery (now part of the Safeway chain) in Houston - gives CO OnePass miles. One mile per two dollars spent. Use your affinity card and get even more! Amex is giving double MEMB MILES for grocery store and gas station charges.
HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT THANKSGIVING!

Hurry to Farmer Jack's stores, mostly in Michigan, because their NW World Perks participation ends Nov. 30, 2001!
