Recursive points?

Hi All

Since the extension of the purchase of points from 19,000 to 30,000 I purchased 9000 points recently, with my Centurion AMEX card.

Because of the 15% bonus offer, the 9000 points becomes 9000 + 1350 = 10350

However the 150 it costs me generated 150 AMEX points, which I moved into Virgin points (with some others). But because of the special offer on AMEX points converted into Virgin points, these 150 generate another 37 miles

So you end up with 9000 + 1350 + 150 +37 = 10,537

Can anyone beat getting 3 bonuses (1350 + 150 + 37) on something?

Kind off, I have now been paid 4 times for my last (and only, but I got the 500 mile bonus) purchase using the VS shopping site.

861+861+861+861+500, so not the total amount, but I did get 4 bonuses...Off which I am trying to be honest and have VS take 3 of them back...But they don't seem to want to.
