Checkpoints Conga-iphone app - WN/AA Miles
Did a search and could not find anything else on this. Sorry, if I missed it.
I've been doing CheckPoints for a couple of months via my iPhone and Android
You get points for checking into stores and can earn more by scanning items at those stores.
3,750 point can be used for 500 DL and AS miles. I just cashed mine our on Sunday and got my 500 DL miles today.

So I ventured next door to try it out at Safeway. I was able to find 8 out of the 11 items it listed. For one of the items I got 50 points, two items I got 25, and the rest I got 10. With the bonus spins (which you get for scanning each item) I got an extra ~150 points. So in all I made about 300 points in one visit. The whole thing kind of reminds me of that old game show 'Supermarket Sweep' where you are given an item and have to find it. Not something I am going to bank a ton of miles with, but it's kind of fun so I will keep doing it.

Are Delta miles still an option? All I can find on the site is Alaska miles (in terms of miles/points)?

CheckPoints miles rewards - DL miles: 500 for 3750 CP or AS miles: 1000 for 8100 CP. There are also gift cards (Amazon, Home Depot, etc) in various amounts.
Note: scannable items change fairly often, right now there are 5 ice cream items, each worth 30 points per scan.
2nd Note: if you are fairly near a grocery score, you can scan items that you might already have (including just the bar code if you save it!)
3rd Note: app resets itself at midnight PDT.
4th Note: You can only "check in" and get points 5 places a day, so we try to use our 5 check ins on the 10 point gold star nearby places. You can check in more times but you won't get points.
5th Note: each scan gets you a "coin" or two which you can play for additional points, from 0 to 50,000, most are worth 20 points, or an occasional 50; I've never gotten more than 50.
Next bonus code to use? Samplynn
