Here is some bonus points love for some non-US residents! I saw a tweet from @AwardWallet, and a post on Milepoint by KathlnJax, that Delta has launched a SkyMiles Shopping site for Canada, Latin America, Mexico, and the Caribbean. To celebrate the launch of the new site, there is an offer that allows a person to earn 500 bonus Skymiles for the first two purchases – for a total of 1,000… Read the Rest.

If you are like me and spend a fair amount of your monthly income on food, then make sure you register for this “Get Ahead Bonus” dining promo through the Rewards Network.  With the Rewards Network, you typically earn 3 miles per dollar spent on dining at eligible restaurants when you pay using a registered credit card.  Once you have 12 qualified dining transactions in a calendar year, you obtain… Read the Rest.

Thanks so much to one of my readers for forwarding me an email that said that he had been targeted for a one-day (January 31st through 11:59PM EST) only 500 Delta SkyMiles bonus for making any one purchase from any SkyMiles Shopping retailer.  On Flyertalk it looks like others are reporting being targeted for a 250 SkyMiles version of this promo.  Of course, not everyone was targeted….including me. From the… Read the Rest.

I don’t know about you, but we have been in full-on holiday mode today.  Brunch with Santa, Christmas cartoons, looking at lights, ice skating, etc… Given that the next week or so is going to only get more and more crazy, I want to stop and make sure you are caught up on a few different points happenings that are going on. First up is a radio segment that I… Read the Rest.

The Skymall promotion that offers 25,000 Delta SkyMiles for a $500 purchase is coming back any minute now.  Basically, the strategy is to buy an item that you can re-sell for a small loss on eBay (or Craigslist, or wherever….).  Assuming you can buy a $500ish item and re-sell it for around $400ish dollars, you can get 25,000 Delta SkyMiles for just $100!  Of course, some items will resell better… Read the Rest.

Right now Delta is offering 25,000 Skymiles for making a $500 Skymall purchase before September 18th.  Thanks to Darcie on Milepoint for sharing the info! This isn’t a promo I am personally going to take advantage of, but if you had a large Skymall purchase you have been eyeing, now is the time to go for it!  You could always order 17 of the world’s largest crossword puzzles (coming in… Read the Rest.

I discussed in this post that AMEX Membership Rewards was having an AWESOME Delta promo that ends today, May 31st. Basically, if you transfer AMEX Membership Rewards to a Delta Skymiles account they will give you a 50% bonus. So, 50,000 Membership Rewards points becomes 75,000 Skymiles. That is my kind of math!! They also gave you Silver status if you transfer at least 50,000 points. Silver status can get… Read the Rest.

As I outlined in this post, I pretty much have our next 12-18 months of rewards travel mapped out. Yes, I am crazy. This includes where the miles will come from, and where they will be spent. I truly believe that like most things in life, having a plan or goal really helps the whole process go more smoothly. I’ve been ignoring an offer that I am now considering. Until… Read the Rest.
