summer of half a million miles sweepstakes, american airlines

American Airlines and their eshopping portal, AAdvantage eshopping, are giving away 500,000 miles during the summer of half a million miles sweepstakes.

You can enter from now until July 14, 2012 via the Summer of Half A Million Miles Sweepstakes link.

Summer of Half A Million Miles Sweepstakes is open to legal residents of all 50 states (including DC: DC residents luck out as normally DC residents are excluded from some contests and sweepstakes), who are 18 or older and American Airlines AAdvantage members at the time of entry.

If you’re not an American Airlines AAdvantage member, you can join for free here.

2 Grand prizes of 100,000 miles will be awarded.

10 prizes of 30,000 miles will be awarded.

No purchase is necessary to enter.  Although only one entry per person via the opt-in is allowed.

You may receive additional entries for purchases made through the AAdvantage eshopping portal, for a maximum of up to 2 entries per day.

The fine print and complete rules can be found here.

Given the gas prices in California and the bonus miles for purchases, I do most of my shopping online via the AAdvantage eshopping portal.  Although I have also been doing some shopping through the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal…

I’ve already entered, how about you?
