Aeroplan is offering a few shopping portal promotions. This is a great way to accumulate miles more quickly. I would not go out of my way to shop, just to accrue bonus miles, but if you happen to need to shop for something anyway, then it’s worth putting in some energy towards maximizing the potential rewards that you can earn.
