Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is happening now! Follow us as Greg, Nick, and Stephen compete to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines before November 23rd. Who will complete the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?

Follow along here!

The United Mileage Plus X app is offering a Black Friday promotion good for 10x miles at several popular retailers, including Athleta, Banana Republic, Columbia Sportswear, Domino’s, Foot Locket, Gap, Old Navy, Spa & Wellness Gift Card, and TopGolf. Other retailers are also elevated, including Kohl’s at 6x, Steak N Shake at 8x, and more. What’s nice about this is that you’re buying a gift card, so you could then potentially shop through a portal to stack even more miles or cash back on top of Black Friday promos.

The Deal

Quick Thoughts

As noted at the top, the smart play here is to stack the miles here with a shopping portal and black Friday promos. That is to say that you could buy an Old Navy gift card through the app to get 10x miles and then potentially use that gift card when shopping portal to get 10% back (see CashBackMonitor for the current best rates) and take advantage of whatever sales are going today at Old Navy. That could make for a solid deal. If you’re shopping in-store, don’t leave 10x miles on the table.

Make sure you’re using the Best credit cards for Black Friday deals. We’ve added this to our running list of Black Friday Deals.

Top Golf is offering $25 gift cards with the purchase of $100 gift card on their website. Any chance you could still be eligible for this if purchasing through the app?
