We bring you the best Caribbean Hiltons, visit the Cristiano Ronaldo Hotel, warn you not to do these airport mistakes, signup for a Hilton HHonors promotion if you are lucky, watch Alex Honnold climb again, bring you the best documentaries on Netflix, look at some awesome astronomy photos and take Solar Impulse for a long flight and more for you!
TBB Blog Mission: To Entertain. Educate. Inspire. In That Order!
Really low action in the miles & points blog space over the weekend…
Check to see if you were targeted for the Hilton Winback promotion. A stay of two nights or more in the next 90 days could net you 15,000 Hilton HHonors points. Good luck!
Since we are on the Hiltons theme, how about checking out some of the best Hilton properties in the Caribbean to redeem your HHonors points. Do you agree? Any other property you like or to avoid? Please tell us in the comments!
Using Miles to the South Pacific. The reason I have been thinking a lot about Fiji lately…
The grim reality of the evolution of major US Airline Loyalty programs is now complete. Sad summary of where we stand.
10 Mistakes you’re making at the airport. Decent advice. Not sure about #8…If I was a pumping blogger I would beat you over the head selling you the premium credit cards that allow “free” lounge access. But I am not…
Alex Honnold and Felipe Camargo climb Corazon de Ensueno. It had only been done once before. Alex is not that young anymore and he is still alive! The scenery is amazing!
The best documentaries on Netflix that will make you smarter.
This dude really likes pizza rolls. And if you take them he will cut you with his sword, WTF!
Short and sweet personal finance post. Fight to keep it simple! “Erring on the side of optimism is still the money trade.”

Monday Monday, so good to me. Make it a GOLDen week! #TBBon
Started with a free souffle at Panera this morning! They have to sell them by a certain hour so the cashier…always thinks of me.
The sky is the limit…
Whats the secret to getting a free souffle?
Know the cashier well and sitting at a table near the register 🙂
Is she hot?
Wandered by my local cafe this afternoon and my hottie was MIA. Ruined my cuppa!
#LifeinParadise
Actually, it’s a nice Mexican dude, former Marine 🙂
Hope yours comes back soon.
Up next for it. Dos
Hilton Winback – if you were targetted, they woulf have told you. Checking simply puts a cookie on your PC to scoop up a percentage of any Hilton bookings you make over the next month.
Why do 3 blog post per day all together? I see other bloggers do that. Why not stagger them throughout the day like Leff does?
Because almost all of my readers are London-based professionals (BA only flies out of London) and they like to read it on the train in the morning. Remember that no-one drives to work in London and they need something to do for 45 minutes!
It is also ‘agenda setting’. I often get over 100 comments on an article and the average is 50+. It is basically ‘these are the topics we are going to talk about today’.
Remember that I am old and was brought up on the newspaper tradition!
Thanks for the response.
When I did a second post one day a few weeks ago…I threw a lot of readers off!
Hey Mr Fancy Pants Blogger with Panera Connections……………….you aren’t the only one getting free stuff there. I don’t want to brag but I am getting a free bagel daily with my Panera Rewards every day in August. SO TAKE THAT! As we all know, real men don’t eat souffle (unless of course it is free).
Things are so bad in the Miles n’ Points world that I read about the Amex Offer for Dollar Tree 10 times now. Spend $225. and get 4,500 MR points……….Do you know how hard it is to spend $225 at $225 at Dollar Tree?
That’s 225 items! Most are trinkets, all are worth a dollar………………Stick a fork in it, this hobby is done.
That monthly free item at Panera is awesome…I am never targeted for them…because I am in there every morning I think 🙂
Yeah, I was having the same thoughts…nothing to post pure miles/points related. Zzzzzzzzzzzz
15k Hilton pts. Whats that about $9.00? Hilton really going after those big time travelers.
Yeah…really. Read Raffle’s post about why they are posting it…
Stopping by as usual.
