I just received my 2,000 points today. How? By signing up here for the $1 “Great Fun” promo. My points arrived in under a week. Just make sure you cancel as soon as you get your points (and definitely within 30 days) to avoid being charged $15.99.
Why Do This?
Every so often, I take a day off from the usual posts to remind people why we do this. There’s a new batch of MileNerds each week, which means some new people saying “Blah…that seems like a lot of work.” If you’re in need of a little motivation, check out this article.
Monday Miles
- Those with United Airlines credit cards might be able to cash in on 2 different promos. No guarantee both will work, but it could be worth a shot. Get 5,000 miles for spending $1,000 this month here. Also, another promo for 5,000 miles if you spend $3,000 this month here. (edit: Both of these are now a no-go).
- Newbie alert – Those who don’t have a Southwest account can pick up 1,000 miles here. The 1,000 points for new Hilton members is still available here.
6-Pack For Your Weekend
- MileValue tells you how to get the 70,000 Delta SkyMile American Express card here.
- Yet another great Chase card is good for 50,000 Southwest miles here.
- Pick up miles for toolbars (1,000 from United here, and 500 from US Airways here).
- My 500 Hilton points just posted from here.
- Grab another 500 Hilton points here (this one didn’t work for me for some reason).
- Enter the daily Hilton contests here. Today’s is good for 1 Million Hilton points.
