So now I'm torn.

125 goldpoints/$ with red roses.

Otherwise, the goldpoints site says FlowerClub is 80 points/dollar.

On the one hand, I tend to think that red roses are a bit cliche'.

On the other hand, they're more miles.

My girlfriend would prefer something else, I think, but I would prefer miles.

We'll see who wins!

Ahhh, but would she really prefer roses plus wherever you take her with the extra miles?
