Between he, PGary, and FT we have earned many, many miles!

Great site, thank you for sharing.

Thats good news. I can at least earn miles on my book and DVD purchases.

I haven't seen an announcement anywhere, but as of today the Dividend Miles shopping mall is only showing 0.5 miles per US dollar spent at Amazon.

Some have posted on the other HA thread that it was 1/$1 on HA and .5/$1 on US as of Oct. 3rd or so...

No, US has switched to a new mall vendor that doesn't offer Amazon.

So is there anyone left now? I use the Amazon Affiliate program and purchased a new couch and a new TV on it. I thought they paid even if it was the affiliate who bought the items. Waited a few months and no they do not pay. The best thing to do in this case is to use a friends link and go back and fourth. Shame on Amazon for being such cheap-o's and not supporting those who support you!!!!

Otherwise the other next best way is to use a Amazon rewards card. If you have an Amazon rewards card they are doing a promo right now: Use Your Amazon Rewards Card to Get 10% Off All Digital Download Purchases until Dec. 31.

You SHOULD be able to do this with most programs when it comes to web hosts and most other e-commerce sites. It's kind of like an employee discount. But yeah will not work with AMAZON. Makes me not want to buy anything from their site.

Hawaiian still gives 1 mile per $1
You can also get Amazon Gift Cards at some grocery stores and get the mileage or hotel point bonus (5 per $1 on Hilton Amex) for Grocery Stores and then the Mile on Hawaiian. They do partner with Delta and Virgin, so there is hope! Here in FL Publix does not have them, but Sweetbay does.

Are you sure that works? When I have a gift card balance at Amazon and use that to pay, I don't get any credit for an affiliate referral. I only get the miles if I pay with a credit card. It seems Amazon only awards an affiliate fee, for me at least, when the money first enters their system, not when it is used.

I don't know about affiliate or associates, but I have only purchased on Hawaiian for Amazon with Gift Cards and have received over 4000 miles in 3 months, including 2000 miles for buying gift cards after whining alot. That was awarded for some reason from Amazon uk. Go figure!

United.

Use the Mileage Plus X app:

https://hub.united.com/en-us/flyerfr....aspx?mobile=0

1 mile per dollar at Amazon currently. Load up your account with credits (basically like gift cards).
