How to Get 50% Off at Neiman Marcus

The United MileagePlus Shopping Mall just launched a pretty outstanding deal.  Purchases (through Thursday at 11:59 PM EDT) at Neiman Marcus will earn 12x miles.  That is the best earning ratio I've ever seen.  If you are new to online shopping and earning points/miles through shopping portals, please read this post first.

12x United Miles at Neiman Marcus

In addition, Neiman Marcus is running a promotion where you can earn a $50 gift card (for a future purchase) after spending $200 through Wednesday at 1PM EDT.



These deals are stackable and include free shipping.  I will definitely be taking advantage of this deal.  Not to buy crap I don't need but to pick up a few gifts for upcoming celebrations and something for our house.  I'm sure the gift card will come in handy in the future as well.

Just to recap...if you spend $200 you will earn 13x United miles, (including regular spend) receive free shipping and a $50 gift card.  I value the United rebate at 26% (2 cents a mile).  Assuming you can actually use the $50 gift card for something in the future, your effective rebate would be 51% off.

  4. @RC Sometimes it takes weeks. I would give it one more week then send them an email with your order number and total amount and ask when the points will credit. Best of luck.

  5. Thanks Evan, I am aware that sometimes it can take a long time via the shopping portals for points to post. I appreciate your info, it's always good to gauge whether other peoples points have posted or not.
