Well, let's see...first consideration is miles...some of them give miles so check those first. I haven't looked lately but try the online mall link at your airline of choice. I used to have one of those for about six months. I think it was something like $30 a month for two bottles. Picked up some nice ones. They couldn't ship to Nebraska so I had to get a friend in Iowa to let me use their address for shipping.

To fit into your budget I would suggest starting the club and then you can cancel it after so many months within your budget.
