I guess I value a mile at more than one cent

October 13, 2013 By Leana Leave a Comment

How do I know that for a fact? Well, I just paid around 1.13 cent for it.  And not just any mile, but a US Dividend mile, which is almost as bad as skypeso, I mean skymile from Delta program. Almost. Delta is truly the worst. I am talking about a 100 percent bonus on […]

I Am Challenging Frequent Miler!

October 9, 2013 By Leana 14 Comments

Catchy title, no? I thought so. I planned to do this post anyway but decided to add some controversy. The idea was to show that it’s not worth it to keep Barclaycard Arrival for a middle class family or most non-manufacturers (my new invented word) past the first year. The card  earns 2.22 percent cash […]

Miles and points roundup, Florida Keys

October 8, 2013 By Leana Leave a Comment

Is FTU for you? Part two

October 3, 2013 By Leana 13 Comments

I decided from the very beginning that I would always be honest with my readers. Will it cost me opportunities? Most likely. Anyway, back to FTU. Since my target readers are middle- class families, I assume your budget is somewhat tight. So, is it worth going through the expense to attend this event? No, I don’t […]

Is FTU for you? Part one

September 30, 2013 By Leana 3 Comments

Originally this was only going to be one post. But it got so long, I had to break it up in 2 parts. Last weekend I attended an FTU event ( a conference for frequent flyer miles junkies)  in Tampa and wanted to tell you a little about it. We do live in Florida about 1.5 […]
