I never knew a thing about Southwest.

Thanks to TPG and MMS, the repetition came on a day that I needed to learn about those programs. @:-)

And FYI TBB, I never paid attention to Chase UR until I got those Chase credit cards. The repetition is annoying, but it certainly is helpful for a newbie to a program.

Speaking of repetition, your loyal readers are anxiously waiting for cc links to appear on your blog.
Strangely enough I would say that is true in only half of the cases.
Sure there was huge repetition with the Miles & More Card, but at least with readers like me who reads every post, I absorb a lot of the information. So had the coverage not gone up about the program I wouldn't have written the post today (you can see at the bottom of my siggy and I think is quite good IMHO) which might be useful to lots of people.

But I'm sure there are a lot of people who are just turned off by the credit card posts because I'm surprised from the number of comments who kept on thinking that domestic awards were only for Germany and Austria.
