My first GS as well. Another BIG thumbs up to Beltway for making my life so much easier as well as Silverhalide for the spreadsheet which really helped keep me sane. Although I'm still waiting on all my Wyndham Rewards no-shows to post and that damned Thanks Again hit, I'm pretty confident they'll come through which will mean 100,000 US miles. I couldn't resist the half price miles either and got the Mastercard for the hit and bonus miles, so I'm going from zero miles to about 240,000+ at less than a penny a mile. I for one will kinda miss constantly checking in to the GS Pomotion thread to see what's going on!
