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?
Recently I was experimenting with various double-dip shopping portal scenarios and found that some of the online stores I was shopping in offered free shipping for ShopRunner customers. I remembered that many people got extra ShopRunner memberships from the Amex Gift Chain promo last year so I asked blog readers for help was offered several within minutes. Thanks everyone!
One thing I noticed when I signed up was that the free membership would expire at the end of February if not claimed. So, I setup a MilePoint thread to provide a place for people to give away their extra memberships or to claim one if you need one. I expect to reveal at least one cool double dip opportunity in the near future where this membership would be useful so I do recommend getting one if you can.
Here are the stores that will give free shipping for those with ShopRunner memberships:

I love SR. Use it each week for my real job. Has saved me tons!
I was wondering about using ShopRunner and double dipping through the airline portals. Since ShopRunner is a sort of portal itself, would I still get my miles? I don’t have my answer yet because I made my first trial purchase this week. I will keep you posted on how it goes. 🙂
Mary Alice: I’m pretty sure you’ll still get miles, but it will be great to get confirmation. Thanks!
Scottrick: Yeah, the thing that drove me to look for a ShopRunner membership was in trying to find items to add to my cart at Drugstore.com to get over the $25 bar. It’s not too hard to do, but it’s much nicer to just buy what you want and get free shipping.
There are lots of ways to get free shipping promos with some of those stores already, but I’ll admit I’ve been frustrated when I only want one thing and I can’t find it anywhere else. Amazon has ruined me as far as paying for shipping goes. Thanks for the tip!
