As with any of these things, the spam filter appears to be working overtime and you do need to cancel after the "free" trial for some of these things. But then there were some things that were needed. New business cards for the S.O. and 495 Alaska miles for $4.95; 7 days of vitamins and 1165 Alaska miles for $6.95; 670 Alaska miles for face cream for $7.95; catnip scratcher for the cats and 967 Alaska miles for $12.

Log in and click the "Earn" tab at the top. Click any of the programs and it gives you a drop down menu of the participating mileage/hotel program.

Too bad I can't transfer my miles in DL to Asia Miles. Oh well.
Thanks for the info! A couple of the offers are not too bad. ^
