Unbelievable Effort for miles!!

I know that this is in another forum, but I had to point it out. Check out Pudding Guy's entry in this forum... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/Forum1/HTML/002003.html

You should check it out. This guy has to get an OMNI! Maybe a case of Healthy Choice pudding and a spoon would be appropriate.

I must be the only one on the Boards who does not have it in her blood to be Elite, because my first reaction to the Great Pudding Caper is fright, not the desire to applaud!

After checking the link, I laughed myself stupid, and I imagine I will do so every time I think of this, for a long time to come.

And after carefully considering it, I propose that FT begin a new forum:

Stupid Frequent Flyer Tricks

All those in favour, say "pudding."

What a creative way to beat the system!

Just one giant hit takes you to the hall-of-fame.
Enjoy your miles!

Sorry, but IMHO the pudding guy is either pulling our leg or not very bright. It is not necessary to fill out a separate form for each 500 miles. One form would have covered as many UPC's as he had to submit. If his story were true, surely he would have figured this out.

You're a skeptical bunch...I sent in photos to Flyertalk. Hopefully, they'll be up soon.

You misunderstood me talking about filling in forms. I wasn't talking about the Healthy Choice forms, I was talking about the 500-mile certificates they sent me, which I had to fill in and return to the airlines.

Prior to reading this and laughing through it I tolerated pudding. I don't think that I will be able to ever look at the stuff the same way and I didn't even have to put up with all of that healthy choice.

Skeptical? Maybe, but I'd rather say envious. Maybe even a little jealous, since I can't do the same thing (no pudding where I am).

If I were located a bit further South, though, I'd say "Good on ya!" As it is, all I can say (with due reverence) is "Wow!"

Congratulations Pudding Guy on such a fine and creative effort. I am definitely envious!
