Since for obvious reasons, my last few hits are my most expensive (or at least could have been if I chose to order them that way), it's good to know I wouldn't need some of the more expensive ones to work my way up to 36 hits.
This. Do the cheapest hits first and don't necessarily do expensive ones on the theory, "Well, I'm going to have to do this one anyway, why not do it now?" I did a couple of expensive hotel transfers first that I ended up not needing.
Do your e-rewards now. Don't miss the surveys. You may have as many as three or four redemption partners on ER that you can transfer to US.
