Wondering if anyone has earned a hit from Vinesse for buying just one bottle of wine?

Well, if you don't believe me,

then you can search for "VINESSE.COM" in the How Many Hits? or Other Partners threads and see for yourself.

Just bought the 2 wine glasses for total of $24 including S and H and taxes. I figured i buy something i can use.

Vinesse recognized me as a member as I ordered the wine subscription about a year ago but canceled after I received the bonus miles for Alaska Air.

Hope being a present member would still work for the "hit"

Anyone else a recognized member on Vinesse when you ordered?

The terms and conditions of GS don't require you to be a new member of Vinesse; they simply require a purchase. The questions earlier in this thread about subscribing arose because the landing page from the US website put you in the subscription section of the website. Good marketing, but not part of the T&Cs (or the rules where they supplement).

In fact, except where subscription is specifically required in the T&Cs to earn a hit, it would appear that any partner will earn a hit no matter whether a subscription is included as part of the products offered. The analogy appears to be with the Audience Rewards hit where purchasing a ticket was originally thought required and now earning miles through trivia will apparently do the trick.

Great News. And what I love about ordering from Vinesse is that many folks say they post within days.

I joined the Vinesse- Am. Cellars Wine Club, 6/23/11 when the promo on US Airways was for 5k miles after the 2nd order shipped. I received the first 6 bottles quickly and 19 days later received the 2nd order. I cancelled in early Aug. just days before the 3rd order arrived; I had been told to refuse it when I cancelled. My enrollment bonus and extra bonus of 1K each posted 9/23/11. I called the clubs office 9/20 and told them I had not received the 5K miles per the promo I accepted and the CSR confirmed this and said she would get it done. I still do not have the 3K miles due me. On 10/ 2/11 I purchased the Cabernet book to get a hit in Grand Slam. My Sept. statement from the US Airways CC card listed the following hits and awards:

9/16/2011 09/19/11 AUDIENCE REWARDS MILES 2
9/16/2011 09/19/11 AUDIENCE REWARDS MILES 2
9/16/2011 09/19/11 AUDIENCE REWARDS MILES 2
9/16/2011 09/19/11 AUDIENCE REWARDS MILES 2
9/16/2011 09/19/11 AUDIENCE REWARDS MILES 2

9/16/2011 09/16/11 ONLINE REDEMPTION -500

9/20/2011 09/23/11 VINESSE WINE CLUB ENROLLMENT BONUS 1,000
9/20/2011 09/23/11 VINESSE WINE CLUB EXTRA BONUS 1,000
9/20/2011 09/29/11 SHOPPING MALL, JCPENNEY 24
9/29/2011 09/29/11 GRAND SLAM 2011 MULTI PARTNER BONUS - 4 3,000
9/29/2011 09/29/11 GRAND SLAM 2011 MULTI PARTNER BONUS - 8 7,000

The October statement to day lists an additional 5 purchases that I hope are hits but none are the Wine book and 10 other purchases I made prior to 10/2/11, expecting them to be hits have also not appeared. I don't know wheather the book purchase will be a hit or not and also don't know if US Airways has given me a hit for the 1K enrollment in the Vinesse wine club and if they will take it all away because I Quit after 2 months, albeit before the Grand Slam started. Delays in posting are expected but the question of what a Venesse hit needs is still open for me.

I ordered the wine cooler on 9/30 and it just shipped on 10/7. No miles yet, but I'm hoping for Friday.
