- Thanks to fancy pants reader Rob who earned a bunch of American miles from this Neiman Marcus promo.
- Pretty decent batch of choices from IHG this time. As always, their PointBreaks options are 5,000 points per night. Still one of the best values in the hotel game (if you find somewhere you want to stay on the list).
- Thanks to non-fancy pants Alex for sharing this link to the American Express Ameriprise Gold card. The bonus is 25,000 points and the fee is waived for the first year.
