Points & Miles for Holiday Shopping

<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2">This holiday season Hilton HHonors and Ashford are teaming up to bring you unique and distinctive merchandise that can be purchased with your HHonors points as a HHonors Reward. Or, when you purchase items with your credit card, you will earn 10 HHonors bonus points per dollar and 500 miles per item with any of the participating partners listed below.
Shop with your HHonors points for HHonors Rewards. The price of the product is paid in full with your Hilton HHonors points. The HHonors points required for each item is listed next to each item. The point price includes all taxes and shipping.

Shop with your credit card and earn Points & Miles™ (10 HHonors bonus points per dollar and 500 miles per item).

Here's one better.

"Shop the HHonors Holiday Catalog and earn 500 Amtrak Guest Reward points on all your purchases. The holidays are coming and only Hilton HHonors offers HHonors points and Amtrak Guest Rewards points on all your purchases. That's right, you can earn 500 Amtrak Guest Rewards points for each item purchased AND 10 Hilton HHonors Bonus points for every dollar in purchase price on all your purchases in the Hilton HHonors Holiday catalog @ www.ashford.com/hhonors. The catalog is full of great gift ideas including electronics, golf equipment, jewelry and it's a wonderful way to purchase holiday gifts and reward yourself at the same time!"

Looks like you can get Amtrak points and Hilton points. In Amtrak Rewards, you can get 10,000 Hilton points for 5,000 Amtrak points. You do the math.

You really need to compare before you buy.

A good example is a panasonic dvdlv70 player that they want $1100.00 for can be bought at Sears for 799.00. I don't think the miles and the points make up the $300 difference.

Prices seem very highly inflated.
