It's sure a mustery to me how they can pay some of these iDine promos. Currently AA is running a double the miles Promo through the end of March.

So I eat at one of my favorite restaurants and get 10 airmiles per $ which then gets doubled to 20. I then convert those AA miles to Hilton points at 2 for 1 as well as use my Hilton AMEX ending with another 3 points per $1 for a grand total of 43 Hilton points per $1 spent. Good time to pick up a few gift certificates while your dining. Let's see I can spend $4,100 on restaurants, Eat like a king and end up with a free week at the Hilton Wiakaloa (sp) Somewhere in the process the restaurant and iDine are suposed to make a profit. It puzzles me as to how it all works.
