I can almost hear it now -- "Do you have a valid number I can use?"

Let the code begging begin

More information at www.emmiusa.com.

I stumbled upon this offer last night in my supermarket (Queens, NY). My wife and daughter like fondue and with a long shelf life (9 months) I will probably buy 6-8 boxes for a quick 2000 miles. The offer also mentions cheese wedges.
I tried looking at the website and couldn't find this (maybe I missed it), but what is the maximum number of miles you can earn by buying this product?

Found a couple of items on Amazon (1 cheese wheel $3.59, 1 Fondue $7.99).

Of course there is no way to know if these are participating packages without ordering. However, I'd assume the prices on Amazon are at least close to what grocery stores would have.

I went to my local Albertsons and they didn't have either product even though the website says that Albertsons is a retailer for their product.

So if I buy 290 snack wheels that's 145K miles which is enough for F to SYD for about $1100 bucks


I'd say not bad

The Emmi website lists Costco, Trader Joes and Super Target as retailers so there may be cheaper prices available vs. supermarkets.

I can't find any official rules to this promo. The link just points to AAdv rules.
