Who's nice enough to start a list of lowest cost items to buy from partners? For example, a box of pens for 1.79 from office max w shipping approx 10 bucks.

Last year I got 16 hits, took me an hour of planning and cost about $30. If I can match that this year I'll be just fine.
Y'all can go for 36 hits, but it's just too much work (and $$) for me.
I remember last year there was a (freaking amazing) spreadsheet that calculated and tracked your hits and mileage earned. Anyone have a copy lying around? Want to update it for this year?

Until it's officially announced and live I'm not doing any serious planning or prep work. Not worth it if something might change before start time. Remember, it's no longer visible on the website. All I'm doing is holding off on a few things - booking hotels primarily.

For OfficeMax, it would be a better value - for me, at least - to order $50 worth of printer ink or something else that I would have to buy soon - and get free shipping.

What is everyone going to do for this one? Last year, I think most of us got sign up miles on AS and transferred them to US. Assuming we can't delete the old AS account and get a new one and link it, what are the best options? Are there any good sign up bonuses elsewhere? Has anyone tried Phone Hog? I signed up for it, did a couple surveys but didn't get points for it.

Be careful:
For all airline rewards, the sign up bonus will be awarded after 12 weeks. Cancellations prior to 12 weeks will not be eligible for the initial sign up bonus

After 3 months, you need to cancel, otherwise they keep charging your CC.
At the end, you will get 1300 points for $41.85 (3 cpm) and one hit.
