United MileagePlus Shopping is offering increased payouts at select retailers now through Monday, February 19th in its President’s Day Event. While they are advertising rates up to 10x, though I’m seeing rates as high as 15x at eBags and 12x at Lord & Taylor.
The Deal
- Increased United MileagePlus Shopping payouts of up to 15x between now and Monday, February 19, 2018

Quick Thoughts
Some of today’s payouts look pretty good. For example, while 12x at Lord & Taylor isn’t the highest we’ve ever seen, it’s the best mileage payout we’ve seen since late December.
That said, it’s always important to compare rates. For example, 15x at eBags sounds pretty good. However, if we go to CashBackMonitor.com, we can see that Alaska Mileage Plan‘s shopping portal is also offering 15x today. Personally, I’d rather earn 15x Alaska miles than 15x United — especially in light of the way they dialed back their recent surprised devaluation.
Still, if you’re looking to collect United miles, it’s always better to earn more than less. Don’t forget to check our Frequent Miler Laboratory for opportunities to double dip and earn big.
