these days most places in the world that take CCs do not impose min limits, I know that.

I dunno about the FFF but one time, just to try it, I charged 10cents on a CC at an idine place. Yes, I knew the bartender and did pay for the rest of my meal with another card (associated with another idine airline).

the 10cent charge went thru as 1 mile.

11 cents would be one mile too. SO would up to 19. 20cents would be 2 miles. $1 is 10 miles. Buying one single beer thusly yeilds about 35 - 60miles depending on what you drank and where.

so go to bars you know and try it! You could essentially do this promo for 50cents and sign up for their visa to get the bonus!
