True, but given the uncertainty -- it probably made sense for COPA to just go for the OP points now!:rolleyes:

Are you cooking fish in the microwave?

No, but I also cook fish that is relatively fresh, direct from a shop with high volume and great selection. I don't go for fish that is hard frozen and boxed up.

Make sue you wait at least 6 months before closing the account.

I already did my checking account for 2010, but I will have my wife open one when the next Mileathon starts.

Nice -- I love fresh fish!^ Although I will buy frozen alaskan wild salmon!

Just not thinking outside the box (lower-case); a $50 store gift card (not Kroger or a prepaid AmEx / Visa) automatically yields a gas discount - counts twice.

Really the only way for fish, unless you caught them yourself which is the other option.

My parents have been going crazy since the cold spell has broken and dad has been catching a lot of fish.
They have been making dog food out of the fish pieces as well.......yummy for the dogs.
My dad has always loved fishing, now living on a lake he's going to be nearly too happy.

OK -- I have to check when I opened them.^ I may actually close an older account.:rolleyes:

Wait 6 months, find another promo?

Ah, never thought to buy a store gift card -- will keep that in mind the next time I'm in VA. @:-) I generally get my gas at Sam's Club down there -- when I'm actually in Charlottesville.

ALCO wins, I lose. Her mother is pushing her to get a band now. :mad:
