I didn't start hardcore TopGuesting until the GS and it helped me with my Hilton Transfer hit, but had I started last year, I could have saved $ with 2 other hotel transfers.

As a GS Virgin I relaized I need to find ways to plus up my hotel programs that are gathering dust. (IHG, Choice, BW) I will be looking for ways to take advantage of promos to bulk them up for next year.
I have been filling out mindless surveys a few times a week, got up to $100. $25 went to US and $75 went to HH to help offset that transfer.
Oh, and as a PLT on AA one can transfer small amounts of miles to AsiaMiles. Need to do that before I sink to GLD in Feb. As a GLD or Kettle member one can only transfer a much larger number.
