Has anyone seen a new original and innovative way to earn FF miles?

What - you're too good to read through the different boards like other people? Do you think you're special? 500+ posts in less that 11 months - how long does it take to get a clue?

Hey, I was interested in finding out what "NEW" mileage opportunities may have just been announced.

Do you know of any?

Of course I read the boards and know the past promotions, just looking for the new ones.

Many people here have pent up anger. This is just another place for them to vent. Don't take things personally.

Though I too do not take it personally in here, you should have seen how some of the skeptics ripped apart one of my hairbrained schemes last week --ha ha ha!

Anyhow, I propsed in there (at least for those who took the time to pick it thru for the good parts of my "Be Famous..." post) that sites like clickrewards.com and gift certificates.com are always nice to earn points and miles. I have been looking at other shopping portal opps where I can do some triple dips and will report em as I find 'em.

If speed is not your thing, distance may as well be. Enjoy and embrace it all!

This from a guy whose entire career has been based on "I get no respect". You know why you get no respect? Because you're a moron.

Wrong comedian - wrong line.

"I don't get any respect" is a Rodney Dangerfield line.... NOT Don Rickles.

If you were going to insult the guy, at least get the comedian correct

This isn't new, but I haven't seen it lately.... Send everyone you know Christmas gifts from ftd.com

www.ftd.com/unitedoffer4

You will get 30 UA miles for every dollar... Send $1,334 in gifts, get a first class ticket in the US or Canada.

excellent, we2sparks!
a post about the subject!

anyhow, I saw this on another locale:

enter COLORE for 15% off $50 at Gap online.
and I still think UAL gives you 3 miles on the dollar with GAP.

go nuts everybody!
