Neiman Marcus is offering 18X AA miles per dollar spent at the AAdvantage Shopping Mall. I do very little department store shopping even online, since I primarily take advantage of Amazon, which frequently has what I need at the best price, taking into account free super saver shipping.
That said, if you do ever shop Neiman Marcus or will be buying upscale branded merchandise for anyone on your Christmas or holiday list, it never hurts to get 18X AA miles for the purchase, especially since AAdvantage miles are looking a lot better for international first class and business class award travel in light of the United award chart devaluation.
Most recently I took advantage of 17X for Sears at the AAdvantage Shopping Mall. Often points in other online shopping malls can take awhile to post (except for the Ultimate Rewards Mall, which at least for me has always posted quite quickly, within a couple days of the transaction).
And it wasn't quick, but AAdvantage miles from the Sears transaction did post within 17 days of the transaction–so I'd allow 2.5 to 3 weeks to see the AAdvantage miles in your account.
I'll probably buy some kitchen and bath things that we need, since we've had some of the same IKEA stuff for years and it's time to upgrade, although I have no need for the designer fashion on the site. For example, there are Ralph Lauren bath towels that aren't that expensive, although I've not ordered them before and can't vouch for the quality.
Even if you spend just $200 on household items or gifts, that's 3600 AAdvantage miles, a nice return assuming these are purchases you need to make anyway.
Plan to take advantage of 18x AAdvantage miles for Neiman Marcus purchases?
