I am sorry....I am sure you've answered this question time and again, but, when you redeem miles at Vendors like Shell what is the maximum redemption you can do? Also, can you get any gift cards with your miles? I'm afraid that I will lose the bulk of my points to their five year expiration clause. Thanks in advance for any help. I tried to get a hold of airmiles but 2+ hour waits and I know you guys know as much or more than they do.
