Miles for diapers.. Future AAdvantage promotion?

Just finished a targettet internet survey that asked the following: How likely would the offer of AAdvantage® miles with purchase of children's diapers/training pants be to influence your purchase decisions?
Very Likely
Somewhat Likely
Probably not likely
Would not influence my decision

Survey went on to ask whether I'd be persuaded to buy diapers/training pants for 1 mile per $1; 50 miles per package; or 100 miles per package.

Man, if you only knew how many diapers the mrs. jmartin buys every month...I could be known as Diaper Guy on FT. I hope they do it before our little ankle biters get potty trained

They ought to be able to make it more than 100 miles, a package of diapers cost a lot more than a box of cereal. If they make it 250 I will consider getting Baby BigKing out of cloth for a while and stocking up on disposables.

Highly extremely beyond a doubt likely! I have twins coming in October. I'd buy some many I'd be known as the diaper guy

Pampers used to give out Pamper's Points. We accrued enough to get one of the kid's motorized Jeeps.

Better is nothing?

Our kids got four huge sets of toys from Fisher Price courtesy of Pampers.

One big toy courtesy of Luvs.

Wish one of those be around...

How about a 100 miles bonus if you agree not to change the diaper on an airline seat?

Actually, most modern jetliners now come equipped with diaper changing tables. Just look directly in front of you, unlatch, and it will fold out from the chair in front of you.

PLEASE don't go there.
There is a whole bruising thread about diaper changing on board.
