I usually ignore them.

This one was to watch Team USA in Rio. The package includes BF tickets to GRU and then economy class flight from GRU to city airport in Rio, 4 nights accommodation and "pre-selected" tickets to "sought after" Olympic events.

I clicked the link and the current bid is over 400k RDMs.

Who blows miles on these "experiences?"
I do. 20-30 times . Don't regret one experience. Sure I have a lot of miles, but the majority of these experiences you can't buy if you wanted to. Whether I overbid or "stole" it (rarely), I don't regret one bid. Priceless experiences shared with loved ones....memories of a lifetime.... yeah, I "blow my miles" on them!!!
