Data point: I purchased gift cards to home depot through the site. Haven't gotten credit for them yet. Used those gift cards to order something from homedepot.com through the site. Got my shipment, no miles yet. Had to return the item to store because it didn't fit, however i received a mile deduction for the purchase in my aa eshopping account today. Still no credits for the initial gift card purchase or the product purchase with those gift cards. Since they took miles away for the return, i expect for the credits to show up too. I have had success buying the gift cards and getting miles before, but haven't tried buying something through the site using those gift cards and getting more miles (WIN!)
So - homedepot.com, buy gift cards through site using SPG card (3m/$ eshopping, 1.25 SPG), use gift cards to buy item through site (3 more m/$). Total = 7.25 miles per $!

With AA eshopping make sure that the blue banner drops down and shows you how many miles per $ when the store's WEB site opens up.
With several merchants I can go through the 'click' box where you can gather up AA miles for searching, but on Overstock.com I can only get the blue box by going through the AAdvantage eshoping WEB site.
That blue banner is an indication you have done it all correctly and will get your AA miles for spending.
Works for me!

I missed the 950 promo but 650 still seems like a good deal. What do you think?

Any card used on the website is fine regardless of it being registered.

Apparently the 950 miles posted as "pending" to my eShopping account on 12/3. I don't normally log-in to check, so I didn't even know. Got the "You Have Earned Miles" from eShopping today.
^ Thanks again, OP, for this find!

GC question
Has anyone tried thinkgeek or peet's for gift cards? They are not specifically excluded, so I'm wondering if anyone has actually seen credit.
Thanks,

For something like this, I never understand what the "pending" stage is all about. If the game company reported this to Aadvantageeshopping already, then why the further delay?
Has anyone proceeded from this status to actually getting the miles yet?
