You know, initially I was surprised to see that someone had revived this thread two-and-a-half years after the last post. But then I read the new post and I thought, what a tragedy, the article was finished in 2004, and here someone comes along with the best reward/award ever, hands down.

When you consider that a roundtrip tix between PHL and WAS nets you between 280 and 400 points while spending between $74 & $125 each way...the $50 for 1500 points is a heck of a deal.

My girlfriend has received TONS of roses during this promotion!
