Want to buy a Switch 2 - $699 for the base console + Mario kart bundle everywhere. Would I be earning 699AM then through Walmart or BestBuy with 20x multiplier? (699 / 20 x 20 =699)

Best Buy is even 2x today so guessing it will be even higher on BF.

Anyone have experience with this? Their terms say video games excluded… is it the games themselves ($99 ea usually now) or the console too?

You should earn 34 for base miles and 646 for the 20x extra. It never works out quite as well as you think, they round down to the nearest $20 and you only earn the base miles once so it's like 19X extra. I can't speak to the walmart vs bestbuy though.

So I’m just getting around to catching up here. Been dealing with way too much ‘life’. We had planned to not really do Christmas this year…dog got surgery, DD still not able to work much due to the knee and a bunch of other dumb stuff. Well, didn’t DD just break up with the boyfriend. He totally blindsided her the other day with it. She’s a mess and DH wants me to take her away somewhere but I really can’t get away from work right now. So I decided today to go all out for Christmas. It’s going to be a lavish gift year. I ordered several things today that are not on AM shops. With the 20x bonus coming this weekend I’ll order everything else. I’m going to be buying an Apple Watch but it doesn’t look like the usual places will give AM for it…Apple, Best Buy, Walmart. Any other places that anyone knows of that will earn me miles and deliver before Christmas? I considered redeeming miles for the watch but I don’t know exactly which one to get so I’d like to have the option to exchange it.

LOL…my oldest wants nothing. So I said I would pay for a vacation for them. might be regretting that

Sorry about the breakup and everything else.

Check TSC for the apple watch, they have a lot of apple products (I don't know for sure about the watch but they have some stuff coming up as showstoppers that are apple so maybe). Their shipping is not as fast as some places but it's usually pretty good.

Thanks…there has been so much going on lately I’d like to tap out now. I’m exhausted.

I had a quick look on the TSC site. They do have the watches. Now I need to read the AM exclusions

I think TSC it's only giftcards that are excluded.

Someone was looking for a Switch earlier in the thread as well, they sell those too but probably at higher price than walmart's sale.

Amazon categories:
I have couple of items that fall under Home & Kitchen, on their list it says Home. Will they still qualify?
Similar question for Sports & Outdoor, on their list it says Outdoor Recreation. Will they still qualify?
