Certain luggage brands (like Tumi, Briggs & Riley) are rarely discounted. Are there any brand restrictions on the 35 miles/$1 promotion? If not, then this is a great opportunity to buy some higher-end luggage.
Tumi isn't "rarely" discounted. It's discounted (at my last count) around 6 times per year, the past 2 years. Try gilt.com or ruelala.com. Also, if you're fortunate enough to live near a Tumi outlet, you'll find tons of product at 50% off or more.
Never used a B&R bag so can't comment there.
Re: the 35 cent per dollar spent on eBags..it CAN be worth it, if: (1) you have a specific redemption in mind, or need a top off, or can't apply for another Citi card
AND (2) you actually need (two) new Tumis!
