use of skymiles

i was unable to find any seats on desired flights for 25k miles, until the 21 day mark when the extra fees kicked in

so instead booked a thursday and friday night at harrah's las vegas for less than 18,000 sky miles

with taxes room would have been about $180
so gets about 1 cpm

good use to get rid of the skymiles
