Congratulations, I suppose, but, you seem to have counted your chickens before your eggs have hatched since the points haven't hit yet, right?

And, sorry to rain on your parade...

You might want to read the T&Cs for 1-800-Flowers, they added new language that "Bonus points will not count toward A-List, A-List Preferred, or Companion Pass qualification. " This is new. So, points may not count under this promotion this time.

And, did this post necessitate a new thread?

You're kidding, right? There's a well-known method that many of us have used to earn all 110K CPQPs needed in the first 1-3 days of the calendar year (and it has nothing to do with the WN CCs).

In 2013, I waited until 1/10 to do it and had all of the CPQPs needed on 1/12.

OP, nothing personal but this isn't a significant accomplishment and certainly isn't worthy of a new thread.

I've been here awhile and try to be humble. Want to share, as I don't seem to know what exact method ?

The promotional points for me recently have posted and counted. YMMV

With the 1,750 offer? If so, how recently? The below T&Cs appeared in marketing emails starting earlier this week. Previously, there had been no mention of points not being CP qualifying.

Even with the new disclaimer, I'm not 100% sure that these won't post as CP qualifying. If you read through the RR program T&Cs the only thing that is supposed to qualify is flight and credit cards, and that has never actually been the case.

I am also curious on this method that I haven't seen it as a long-time lurker.

Marriott travel packages where they dump 120,000(?) WN CPQP points into your account upon your command. What do I win?

Another way would be to fly 8-10 BS legs (depending on fares) as part of round trips started in the previous year but that would take a bit longer, perhaps a month assuming weekly travel.

I think I'd rather just open two credit cards...

That's the difference. I did two 1,000pt promotions and they seemed to work

So, you post to brag and ask questions and receive straightforward, candid feedback and, then, your response is to want to use swear words to describe those who responded?

You should not be offended. No one else posting "[thinks they] are better than you." Folks posted candid information and you seem to have chose to read it with emotion.

IMHO, you'll get a lot more out of this site if you choose to not take things personally and not post to try to brag. This site is wonderful for its users' collective knowledge and information. It can be amazing and digging into minutia of program and offer details.

I hope you stick around and contribute because you're clearly passionate about what you post. ^

Was this using promo code RR43 for 1,750 points???


I've also recently (November) received promotional 1-800flowers points that counted as CPQPs; however, as I noted (what expert7700 pointed out), this language is new to this current promotion. So, it is helpful to be specific.

ETA: Based on this post, I'm assuming you used a different promo code:

wahooshoe

Yup, the two promos are different it looks like. I find it kind of funny because the 1000pt still has the old terms, and 750pts just doesn't seem worth it to block CP. I suppose two of those offers next you 3500, versus 2000, and that's starting to become a difference. Regardless, as someone who just got CP and has a birthday and another flower order for someone else coming up, I'll take my CP-free 3500pt That's half of a one-way ticket for trips I'm looking at soon

FYI: The 1,000 points I just received for a 1-800-Flowers order made back in November posted as not CPQ. This may be because of the oddities about how the points were (eventually) posted (see my most recent post in this thread for more info). Or it might be that all 1-800-Flowers bonus points are now no longer CPQ. Just a heads-up.





And, just double-checking that they didn't post as CPQ for 2014, based on date of purchase... here are the only 1-800-Flowers points that show up (and were CPQ):




I'm not going to pursue this, since I'm not going for CP this year. But thought the data point was worth mentioning.

According to a post last week it may just be a glitch on the 1K not being CPQP
