the US Air card is now 50k after one purchase. have to pay the annual fee but it's a tiny percent of the value of the miles. miles will be AA miles soon. I can refer anyone that wants to sign up and I get 5k miles so all of you PM me with your name and email and we'll all get rich on miles.

i have a better referral offer than steve dave's (i get 10k points instead of sd getting 5k points) so pm me instead.


disclaimer:  it's a horrible card and barclay's is a horrible bank.  you shouldn't pay the annual fee for it.

sys, what's your beef with barclays? don't recall the reason.

every time i call them for anything its a pain in the ass to get them to do what i want and i have to talk to like three different people and then they finally tell me they'll do it and two months go by and it hasn't been done and i have to call them back and complain that that they didn't do what they told me they'd do and it takes like half an hour to convince them they actually told me they'd do it originally before they agree to do what they told me they'd do two months ago.

talking about waiving annual fees, mostly.

Got it. I just cancel all of the cards before the fee. I've gotten the frontier and USA sign up bonus like 4 times each.

you could stay 2,520 consecutive days (6.9 years, 5th night free) at the WDW Swan or Dolphin (your kids would go bonkers). or 1,260 days in a 1,200 sq ft suite (kids still go a little nuts)

and if you refused housekeeping (you get 500 SPG a day, they still refresh coffee, take out trash, etc.) you would earn 1,260,000 SPG points thus allowing you to stay an additional 157 nights.

Wow, that's a great deal.

our suite counted as 2 rooms so by refusing housekeeping we got 5,000 SPG points on our 6 night stay.

I'm a hotel redempto n00b here. Mrs. WonderMeal and I are looking to have a night away from WonderMealette, WonderMeal Jr., and WonderMealina. We're looking to reserve a room in or around Boston for tomorrow.

I have ~200k UR points, but I'm not currently a member of any hotel rewards program. (We've only used our URs for flights.) Where should I stay, which hotel program will let me transfer immediately, and can you guys (SD, LSOC, etc) just pick a hotel for me?

I will repay you by prioritizing YOUR referral link next time one comes up. (Chase Sapphire Preferred and Amex coming soon...)
