Miles for Mercahndise
I'm looking for other ways to spend my miles other than reward tickets. The only thing I can see to do with them at milepoint.com is trade them for cruddy mag supscriptions (limited selection) or join a "cruise and resort discount club". I'm really looking to use them for merchandise. Any suggestions.

Check out the SPAM forum for some ideas. If you have AMEX points you can redeem for merchansise and other programs have similar options. You might want to check out each program you have miles with to see what their policies are.
Welcome by the way...enjoy.

Also depends on the particular kind of miles you're trying to burn -- so you might ask about specific programs in their respective forums, and cruise the loyalty program websites themselves.
