The question is do you earn miles on UA vouchers - if details are needed to determine this I can find out if you tell me what I need to look for.

SOme do and some dont.

Nice!

I never realized that was called a tulip until people started screaming about it.

There is an advantage of living 1 hr from 5 major airports^ (Even if you can't afford to park at 4 of them:(

I've booked two of my three nights' hotel already - Boise's Hyatt Place is running $52 / night so I get another BWB night ...

I picked up an extra BWB night last weekend, and I wasn't sure when or where I was going to use it. It came in handy when my HNL 1 night trip came together.

Did you go for the AA miles promo too? If so, did they post yet?

Nothing has posted yet, although the thread on the Hyatt board indicates that they will likely post this weekend. Appparently they have been posting every second Saturday.

I finished up that promo as part of Footie Do ;). Still awaiting the posting of the miles.

Something else to consider here: the name of the website game is views of ads.

Here are some wagged, back-of-envelope numbers:
Total CO forum "normal" threads: 35,000
Average view per "normal" thread: 300
Total views of normal threads: 1,150,000

Views of stickies and popular threads: 800,000

Box views: 2,000,000.

Quite approximately, the Box accounts for half of all eyes on ads in the CO forum since inception, and probably growing at a faster rate. It's worth something financially.
