Were there any free drinks mailed home for credit card holders this year?

If there is a threshold, it would be very small. I only flew SW twice last year, and they were both under $130 R/T. It does say send as I earn, so they base it on something. Possibly on how many points earned on CC spend? That is my best guess, since it is joint WN and Chase promo.

Received the card yesterday, quite nicely done actually. ^ 2012 was my first year with any SWA relationship, opened the account for orphan hotel/car deposits and flew half a dozen free flights and a single paid flight last year. Got the Premier CC in October and have ~$1000 mix of paid/points flights booked for future travel.

I had the fancy mailer with 4 coupons waiting for me when I got home from the long weekend. Very nice. I suspect they spent more on the actual mailer than the drinks cost. Personally, a plain envelope with 8 coupons in it would have more customer goodwill benefit... but it was appreciated.

All to mail drink coupons for 4 free drinks that cost them no more than $1 each.
