I primarily joined E-Rewards for WSJ and Forbes magazine subscriptions. If the WSJ will no longer be a redemption option, which airline or hotel mileage program offers the lowest redemption level for the WSJ? I'm thinking I could start a frequent flyer account Delta, Alaska, Hilton Honors etc and then use my E-Rewards $ to redeem miles for those programs and then use those miles for WSJ and Forbes subscriptions. Thanks for any advice.
Under the e-rewards Magazine Collection rewards, I see a 26-week subscription to WSJ available for 50 e-rewards "dollars."
I also see the following message once you click on it:
Redemption Limitation
Redemption of this Reward is limited. You may claim one reward per twelve month period per e-Rewards account.
So, it doesn't look like you'll be able to receive a whole year's WSJ subscription solely out of your e-rewards account!
Oh, and another thing it says about the WSJ subscription:
Offer is available for new subscribers and in the contiguous U.S. only.
So if you're not a new subscriber, technically you're not supposed to be able to get this.... (Seems contradictory with being able to redeem it once per year, though.)
