I opened a BB last night and will have the card sent to me in 7-10 business days. I'm booking my vacation cruise a bit earlier then expect but that will cut into some of the Min balance. The rest I'm going to cover with Vanilla reloads. I don't plan on doing this to generate spending on a monthly basis as the United card only gives you 1 to 1 on non United purchases. I also can cover the 3k in reload purchases on my CC for the time being until I can unload the BB account. In total I'll need 6 reloads which will be $23.7 in fees. $24 in fees seems worth it to me for 10k miles.

Do you guys recommend purchasing something else at CVS to make sure the balance of the cards don't come out to $1,007.90? I do plan on spreading out my spending as to not raise any flags... there is a CVS on every corner around here.

Anyone see an issue with this?
