Here is an example of this buy miles bonus saving you some money:

You can buy 96,000 miles for EUR 1760. Those 96,000 miles will be enough
to redeem for a discounted business class award ticket at 25% off between Edmonton and Europe (with a few miles to spare).

 

 

Looking at Feb 9-16, 2016 in business class you can get the discounted
rate between YEG & AMS for 93,7500 miles and C$616.00 in taxes and
fees. To buy the miles will cost C$2680.59 (including 5% GST) and add in
the taxes and fees on the award flight of C$616.00 for a total of
C$3,296.59.

To buy the same tickets outright costs C$5,084.44. As you can see buying
the miles can provide you a savings of nearly C$1,800 on these particular
flights!

And remember the discount for these Flying Blue
tickets is only 25% at this time, sometimes its 50% off so your savings
could be even bigger! For example Vancouver was at 50% off for this month but it does appear all inventory is already taken!!
