Can I get points for a Crate and Barrel purchase?
I'm pretty sure that this isn't SPAM...
I think I need to make a fairly substantial purchase at Crate & Barrel (or at cratebarrel.com) in the near future. Besides using a credit card, are there any mileage malls or ways that I could earn additional miles or points w/ this purchase?
I realize I'm not going to get miles in my preferred programs, but something somewhere (heck, even CO or DL!) is better than nothing, right?
I just can't figure out the somewhere part though... 
Thanks in advance.

Nope, sorry, I don't think so (other than the giftcertificates.com that is already mentioned). I just checked www.evreward.com and it says: There are currently no shopping rewards listed for this store.

You're certainly not limited to AA - See Andrew Cram's detail on GiftCertificates.com: http://www.rewardsdb.com/online/US/G.html

Thanks folks. The giftcertificates route is a great idea, but it isn't going to work. I'm not sure if I'm actually going to have to make the purchase and if I do, it's going to have to be an instant decision. So it would be silly to have $1000+ in Crate&Barrel gift certificates w/o a use for them.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
