Wsj
An alternate method of getting the WSJ is by using E-Rewards $.
I have done it twice using 40 E Reward Dollars for 36 weeks, that did not cost me anything other that responding to E Rewards Surveys.
I have also used airline points.
The last E Rewards subs started 8 days after I submitted it.

This was the link: http://xp3.mybonuscenter.com/pxp/hug...402/portal.htm
But it's gone. Strange.
FWIW, access to wsj.com was not included. Ink on hands only.
EDIT: earlier post had this link http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showp...&postcount=112 but it required significantly more miles. Maybe it's still worth it to you.

Huh? I click on that link and it brings up subscription offers (pretty limited listed, doesn't include WSJ) for US, not UA.

You are right; I misspoke (mistyped?) At any rate, the link is live, but doesn't seem to be what people here were looking for, and it doesn't seem to link back to a page with other offers.

I'm not finding the Wall Street Journal available for Delta, American or United miles. I remember it used to be there, wonder if it is temporary or if they no longer participate.

Right, WSJ no longer for UA or US miles, and only a paltry number of magazine titles available through US at this time. So, I wonder how many (or few) opportunities remain to use anyone's miles for subscriptions. Anybody have current info on subscription opportunites using miles from different carriers?

I just subscribed and thought I'd share a little math I did in case anyone is interested.
On the webpage it shows a value of $343 for the subscription, which is more than 10 CPM and I was quite excited. I then looked up the price of subscription at wsj.com. It's something like $59 for 28 weeks or $99 for 58 weeks. I then worked out a value of $74.71 for the 39 weeks subscription, or 2.264 CPM.
Since I like the WSJ and was able to get it without money out of pocket, I subscribed
