Best/Easiest way to get some miles?

I haven't flown US Airways in about a year, but I do have some Dividend Miles that I don't want to expire. Are there any suggestions as to preventing them from expiring (i.e. picking up a few miles through an easy promotion)? Thanks for reading!!!

If you have E-Miles or E-Rewards they are free. Otherwise, you can join www.thanksagain.com, friend them on facebook for 100 free miles or buy a restaurant.com voucher through Thanks Again. The latest promo codes are in the SPAM forum.

You could enroll in Dividend Miles Dining if you're going to eat at any of the participating restaurants.

The flowers don't have to be delivered BEFORE the miles are credited. Buy now for Mother's Day delivery and you will get the miles (barring any issues) long before Mother's Day.

At points.com you can covert 30 DMs to 1 Delta SkyMile. IIRC, this will extend the expiration on your DM account as it is activity. Can anyone confirm this since I am not positive?
