TERMS AND CONDITIONS The Program. Since 1998, the Tom Thumb & American Airlines AAdvantage Program (“Program”) has been offered exclusively for Tom Thumb Reward Card members (“Members”). Generally, the Program runs from January 1st through December 31st of the applicable year (“Program Year”) and may need to be renewed annually by all participating Members during a renewal period in the applicable Program Year, as announced by Tom Thumb. The Program Terms. The terms and conditions below reflect the current Program terms, which may be modified from time to time with or without notification (“Program Terms”). Therefore, you are advised to periodically review the Program Terms to keep current with the Program. The date of the last change to the Program Terms is listed below. Your participating in the Program indicates that you have read, understood and agree to be bound with the Program Terms and any modifications that may be made in the future. Program Eligibility. You are eligible to earn 250 miles on your American Airlines AAdvantage miles account that you designate when you first sign up for the Program (or thereafter, as indicated on the renewal application) (“Account”) every time you use your Tom Thumb Reward Card and spend $250 in eligible purchases at participating Tom Thumb stores, subject to the Program Terms. Eligible Purchases. Every time a Tom Thumb Reward Card is used in eligible purchases at a participating Tom Thumb store during the applicable Program Year, the Account will accumulate dollars toward earning AAdvantage miles. All dollar amounts are rounded down. A set of one or more club cards with the same address and either (i) the same telephone number or (i) the same last name will constitute one household. Additional household restrictions apply (see the section entitled “Limitations” below).
For every $250 spent on eligible purchases, the Account will earn 250 AAdvantage miles, subject to the Program Terms. Accumulated dollar amounts for eligible purchases will print on Member's receipt tape. When the accumulated total amount reaches $250, the award message will indicate that 250 AAdvantage miles are eligible to be posted on the Account. For each household, dollars from eligible purchases will be accrued from the date of Member’s submitting the Program application, provided that the application is fully completed, accurate, and submitted in accordance with the Program Terms.
In no event will eligible purchases made before the Program application date be counted toward earning AAdvantage miles. All earned AAdvantage miles will be transferred to American Airlines by Tom Thumb on a regular basis. All miles awarded will be reported to Members by American Airlines. Please allow 4-6 weeks for miles to be posted to the Account by American Airlines. Store register receipt tapes may not fully reflect a Member’s accumulated eligible miles if a member of the household shops in multiple participating Tom Thumb stores. If a Member’s eligible purchases do not reach $250, no miles will be earned, awarded or posted. All inquiries about AAdvantage accounts and related balances should be directed to the AAdvantage Service Center at 1-800-433-7300 or the American Airlines AAdvantage Web site at www.aa.com.
Restricted Purchases. For the purposes of the Program, restricted or excluded items and purchases such as alcoholic beverages, cigarettes or other tobacco products, postage stamps, milk and dairy products, transit passes, fishing/game licenses, entertainment/sporting tickets, lottery tickets, gift certificates, gift cards, pharmacy co-pays and prescriptions, phone cards, money orders, container deposits, and fuel purchases, Tom Thumb Savings, Tom Thumb Coupons, and sales tax will not be counted toward eligible purchases.

Submit your completed Tom Thumb Reward Card application to the participating Tom Thumb store.

Submit your completed Tom Thumb Reward Card application to the participating Tom Thumb store. Limitations. AAdvantage miles are accumulated on a per household basis (maximum of 12 people to a household). As a result, all AAdvantage miles earned through the Program will be credited to a single AAdvantage account number designated by the Member who has originally signed up for the Program or renewed thereafter, even if the members of the household maintain a different AAdvantage account number. If you are a member of a household whose AAdvantage mile account number is not the one designated by the Member for the purposes of the Program, you need to submit a separate Tom Thumb Reward Card application with your AAdvantage mile account number and contact our customer care call center at 1-877-723-3929. All AAdvantage miles earned and awards issued, and the use of either, are in accordance with the terms and conditions of the American Airlines AAdvantage program. Tom Thumb and/or its affiliates and subsidiaries are not responsible or liable for any airline travel, or for lost, late, damaged, delayed, destroyed, misdirected, incomplete, illegible or postage due applications or mail, or Tom Thumb Reward Cards scanned incorrectly, or scanner/computer failures or malfunctions of any kind, or human or technical errors or failures in the accumulation of dollars or miles, or in the transmission or receipt of applications. Tom Thumb reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to cancel the Program, in whole or in part, and/or to alter or change the terms of the Program, in whole or in part, at any time with or without notice to Members. Tom Thumb also reserves the right to verify the eligibility of purchases and the household status of purchasers. Tom Thumb and American Airlines each reserve the right to terminate or suspend accumulations or membership due to fraud, misuse or any other reason contrary to the Program Terms.
