ON MY MIND

Wouldn’t it be refreshing if bloggers highlighted the non affiliate link of a credit card WITHOUT adding affiliate links in the same blog post?

Oh great. Now we will have a Canuck blog about manufactured spending and merchandise churning. Can’t wait. Of course I expect more affiliate credit card links conveniently placed in such posts!

New month is almost here. I know you are waiting to do this:

MILES/POINTS

Oh my God. I saw a blogger push the Disney card. It has come to this, so sad…

Hilton pretty much completed the job of gutting its Hilton Honors frequent guest program by pretty much killing the AXON Amex awards. Like there was any doubt that this was not going to happen!

It appears another Frequent Traveler University came to a close. Friend confirmed with me that the seminars were recycled material and, of course, the fun is pretty much all in networking and socializing with fellow addicts. Can we skip the seminars next time por favor? Can I come to Tampa and blend in the hallways and night activities and skip on the ticket fee? 🙂

    1. He’s referring to the Canuck at FTG, the one who has a system of valuing points so inscrutable and idiotic you have to have your head under two feet of snow in Yellowknife to understand it.

    1. Haha, good one. But when you have so many around you it is still a no brainer. Saves the trip to WM and gas:-) I should probably step it up and start “buying money” w/ gift cards but I have so many miles/points already and no free time;-)

  1. Hey Buzz, Is it me,am I just getting old and grouchy, do I need to double the dose of my Zoloft? Or is EXTRA Pack of Peanuts, EXTRA Annoying. He is the Billy Mays of the points blogs. Actually I rather see a Billy Mays (R.I.P.) Oxyclean commercial than listen to his new podcast.

  2. RIP Billy Mays???????????? When did he die? He’s a legend, A Hall of Famer, one of the best ever to play the game. I played on the same team with him in 1972 when he was traded from the Giants to the Mets. Say Hey Billie…………your ole teammate, Chico Escuela.
