Nerds With Inks

Nerds With Inks shall rise once again to storm the 5% castle. Also known as $200 Visa gift cards with no fee at Staples. This one goes from Sunday to Saturday. In other news, it appears I’ve been watching too much Braveheart. I apologize profusely. Have a great weekend, nerds!

Status Matches

I’m at minimum 83% sure I’ve posted all of these websites at various times. But this was a pretty good one from reader Josh, so I’ll just clean up the links and paste the whole email…

“MileNerd, thanks for all you have done for my family! I wanted to pass on a status match datapoint and share websites that I’ve used successfully. Starting with the status matcher website, I have also used the hotel matches, Southwest, United, Delta and Alaska. All in the past year. Thanks again!!”

Dong Deals

It’s strange typing words like, “So many great uses for Delta miles lately.”

I’d feel more comfortable saying…

“When I think talent, I think Kardashians.”

Or…

“Hey bro, you look awesome in that color. It totally brings out your eyes.”

But, crazy as it seems, SkyDongs have actually been great lately.

Seriously.

Lots of great Delta award options can be found here.

Man, 2018 really is the weirdest.
