Guru’s Wrap-up

It takes just a few seconds to check if you have won anything. Hopefully some of you fare a little better. You can get extra spins just for clicking the additional options (click explore, more details etc.), without actually sharing anything on social media or making any purchases. So you can get try a few times at least. I received 40 AAdvantage miles each time for a total of 240 miles.

Good luck and let me know if you win anything big!
