I won 50,000 Delta Skymiles for being caller number 9 on a radio program back in 99. Around that same time I got 10,000 Skymiles for not test driving a Buick. Managed to cobble together enough miles for 2 tickets to Europe, which for my barely out of college self was quite an achievement!
This year I got 2 Ultimate Rewards points per dollar for the catering for my wedding. That was quite a score, as we all know weddings are not cheap!
