Free DeLorean Rides In NYC

If you’re a MileNerd as well as a Back To The Future Nerd, it doesn’t get much cooler than this…

Tomorrow, between 11 and 5, Lyft is giving free DeLorean rides in New York City. I tried my best not to end this with a corny catchphrase, but it’s impossible to resist. Great Scott!

AARP Not Just For Oldies

Got an emphatic email from Max to write a quick post encouraging everyone to join AARP. Anyone can do it and the most expensive scenario is paying under 20 bucks a year to be an “associate” member. With the current $400 discount from British Air being one of many deals there, Max wants to make it clear – this is worth your while. So get out there and be like an old fart!

End Of Week Deals

  • SimplyCash Business from American Express is offering 300 bucks if you spend $3,000 in 3 months. The card is still good for 5% back at office stores and 3% from the category of your choice.
  • A few of you are getting personalized offers for 50,000 points for the Hyatt card. In short, my answer to those guys was, “Good deal.” A lot more ways to stretch the points out than with the normal 2 free night offer. Both options are solid, but I’d prefer the points.
  • Shoppers can get 5% on purchases shipped from Amazon (when Amazon is the seller). Yeah, it’s time to add Giving Assistant to my list of portals.
  • I didn’t need another reason to go to Vegas, but here’s a decent amount of bonus IHG points to stay at the Venetian or Palazzo this year.

Delta Business Too

Chris has basically taken over the blog this week. Third post in a row because of him, which is a first. What does one do in a situation like this?

A. Send him a dozen roses?
B. Name a star after him?
C. Tell him he completes me?
D. Change the blog name to ChrisNerd?

While I ponder this important decision, you can go here for the Business link to the Delta card. Just like yesterday’s Personal version, it’s good for 50,000 miles after spending $2,000 in 3 months.

Delta 50,000 Offer

Another day, another increased bonus email from Chris…

Delta’s Gold card has been 30,000 miles for a while. Certain people who applied in an incognito window were able to find 50,000.

Well now it’s 50k for everyone            .

For the moment.

Again.

Delta.
