Well, if you're willing to read through 160000 gadzillion FT posts; and if you're up to booking cheap Days Inn hotel rooms for no shows where you wouldn't want to set foot in real life; and spend a bit of money here and there for unneeded restaurant.com certs and SuperShuttle reservations and the like, and if (and that's the big
IF) US offers their Grand Slam promo again this year, you might be able to round up your totals to get you some usable miles for a decent *A single zone award... As always, YMMV...
