How's $276 sound? DCA>LGA>CLT>SJU>CLT>DCA works on several days in September. Leave 6 am, home at 11:22 pm. Can be done in one day, or with an overnight at various junctions, including LGA depending on how you arrange the order of your connections. Nets 3 points (east/caribbean/shuttle). Several segments on 321s, bring extra laptop batteries ;-)
