Via Deals We Like, American Airlines is giving away miles with a few easy clicks.
Through May 29 you can go to the promotion website, click “Don’t Have a Code” and enter your email address. Once you submit, the site will tell you whether you’ve won anything, and if so how many miles.
You can win up to 25,000 miles. But you might win nothing. You can keep trying using a unique email address (and refresh the promotion code) until you get a mileage offer you like, you don’t enter your mileage account number until the screen where they tell you if you’ve won and how many miles.
I admit, I got nothing my first three tries and gave up patience at 200 miles. But others have reported greater success, and it just takes a moment.
I tried 6 times and got nothing. I’ve run out of email addresses.
Hint: If you have a gmail address, you can put a period in all over the place. Gmail doesn’t separate accounts based on period.
So: name@gmail.com is the same as n.ame@gmail, na.me@gmail, n.a.m.e@gmail, etc, and every combination in between.
Meh, 20 attempts, all losers.
Pressing the button causes the code to repeat. Has anyone won? Can you share your code?
Beware the IRS…
…if you win big. Nada for me.
After giving them 5 email addresses to spam and winning nothing I have given up
5 attempts, no wins.
Got 200 on maybe 10th try.
looks like im the big winner a whopping 1,000 points 🙂
Got 500 on 10th try.
0 for 12.
Failed about five times 🙁
0-35 here. finally quit with 0 miles boooo! I cheated and still counldnt win LOL. It wasnt meant to be.
I probably tried about 35-40 times and got nothing.
I got 1,000; took about 8 attempts
Of 60 plays I got 200 points 3 times.
Got 500 miles on the third attempt. Thanks for the post!
Refreshed 3 family accounts – 200 x 2 500 x 1. Each one did not take more than 10 goes.
200 on the fifth and final try.
i tried 52 times and got nothing
got 200 on the 4th try. Thanks, Gary.
Anyone remember or have the winning code #’s?
Got 200 on first try – tried 4 more times and got nothing.
31 try’s and nothing!
10 tries and nothing
After 60 or so times, I finally won 1,000 miles. Don’t remember the code #, but I do know that it was prepopulated whereas I’d had to click the link before. YMMV
won 200 miles. But found the 200 miles didn’t post into my AA A/C right away…24 hrs past, still nothing.
Does anyone knows how long it will take up to be credited with this 200 miles?
200 1st go
Won 200 miles and got the code associated with it to enter in my account – but I closed the window prematurely! Can anyone post where to enter the winning codes? Thanks
200 on the 1st attempt for me. 200 on the 2nd attempt for the missus.
1000 miles on my second try
500 miles on third try
(I tried using the same code with a different e-mail address, but didn’t win; so I am guessing the code isn’t related to the miles amount)
also the cookie codes may work one time but no more
After many 0’s I settled for 3×200 (myself and two family members). I did hold out and kept trying for a bigger number but at least for me it never got above 200.
I won 200 my 2nd try, and 500 my third. that was easy
GOT 200 AFTER 6 TIMES
200 on first try, nothing on all other attempts.
Got 500 miles on the first try. Woohoo!
Got 200 miles on first try!
Got 500 miles on the first try! Woohoo too!
Got 500 on first try, Thanks!
1000 miles on first try. Thanks Gary.
Has anyone seen the mails posted on their account. I was able to get 3 bonuses 200, 200 and 500 using bogus email addresses. However, i wonder if you need a real address to get the points.
