Buying Mile Deals

Most (including me) rarely feel like buying miles from airlines. Besides the usually poor value, it also kind of takes the fun out of things. Isn’t feeling clever/sneaky/hustler-y a part of why we love doing what we do? Maybe it’s just me. Anyway, for those who don’t mind buying direct:

  • Up to a 100% bonus buying miles with your US Airways card.
  • 30% bonus from American Airlines.
  • Up to 40% bonus buying Alaska Airlines miles.

Free AwardWallet Upgrades

I don’t think I need to tell you guys (again) how much I love AwardWallet. Hmm…maybe I could articulate it best in another “Roses Are Red” poem. Nah…but what I will do is share 20 upgrade codes with you. Just log into your AwardWallet account, click “Upgrade Using A Coupon” and apply a code. This will upgrade your account for 6 months. Please only take 1 of these each. I’ll edit the post at some point in the day when they’re all gone. Enjoy!

Valentine’s Day: The Rest Of The Flowers

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I can’t rhyme,
Refrigerator.

  • 30 American miles per dollar from FTD or 1-800-Flowers.
  • 30 United miles per dollar.
  • 25 US Airways miles per dollar from FTD or Teleflora.
  • 30 Alaska miles per dollar.
  • 1,750 Southwest points if you spend 30 bucks. Might have to call to get this to work, using code RR29 or RR42.

Valentine’s Day With Delta

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Vodka is cheaper
Than a dinner for two

(For those romantic non-vodka types, get 35 Delta SkyMiles per dollar spent at FTD).

Monday Funday

  • The better credit card offer from Alaska Airlines is back. It’s 30,000 miles after you spend a buck. Or 40,000 miles for elites. Again, Bank of America cards can be very churnable for some. And you can also still buy Alaska miles with a 40% bonus.
  • Win 100,000 Club Carlson points with a tweet.
  • 2,500 Southwest points for new members if it works (and if there are any new members in the world).
  • Earn 2 free nights or miles for Marriott stays
  • The FlexPerks card from U.S. Bank is pretty solid. The Olympics might make it much better.
