Want to help me earn United frequent flyer miles while you do your online shopping? Just access any of the online stores through Mileage Plus Shopping or Mileage Plus Mall. If asked to sign in just enter msauers@bcr.org as the username and the miles will show up in my account. (At this point I only need 10,000 more miles for a free flight so every little bit helps.) Merchants include Barnes & Noble, Office Max, Best Buy, Target and L.L. Bean. (If needed for some reason, my mileage plus number is 00991074090. Safeway shoppers can just type my phone number in leiu of having a safeway card.)
