The Best Disney World Hack I’ve Ever Seen. How can you not click on a headline like this?
Well, not to beat up on this point by now, Delta Continues to Devalue Their Skypesos In The Worst Way. Anyone care to guess when United and AA match this?
IHG Rewards Club is giving members a crappy promo and call it A Spring Offer Just For You. You need to log in your account at IHG.com and then click HERE to enroll. Just for you 🙂
If you are in danger of having your IHG Rewards Club points expire, do this.
The Bad Place: Slime & Foreboding at the Grmeč Spomenpark in Bosnia. Another eclectic post at The Bohemian Blog. If only scores of miles and points bloggers could write as well as this guy.
I had several posts about all kind of computer hacking things lately in this blog. But this one is really disturbing…Even sex toys can be connected to the internet – and hacked. The photo of the guy checking out a sex toy and “Can it stop viruses?” under it…lol.
Since we are in this tangent….how about checking out The 8 Personalities You’ll Meet When Dating in the U.S. Actually, this is a fun post, check out what it says about us in the upper Midwest…oh oh:
The Upper Midwest wants to party 🎉🎊🍻, doesn’t care if you skipped showering 💩 , and is more logical 🕵🏼. [Editor’s note: Yes, being logical and not caring about hygiene don’t seem to go hand-in-hand. But hey, science is confusing.]
Chase’s CEO, you know, likes to write long pieces to imitate Warren Buffett or something. Anyways, here is what he said about “9 Reasons Why the US is Truly Exceptional“. Good he missed adding #10 about the amazing Chase Sapphire Reserve (when it was going for 100k signup bonus that is hehe).
Lets fly over to Stockholm and check out its subway stations:
BLOG BUZZ
This section is for advanced level hobbyists and veteran blog readers & personal rants & stuff
We let you know how Amex reps may give you up to 30k Membership Rewards points so you do not cancel your Amex Platinum card. Unless you are this guy who got Marcy on the phone and got 50k!
I almost choked on my crappy Starbucks coffee when I saw the minimum spend required for this Amex offer to bag 250k Membership Rewards points, did you see it? Yeah, I can do $1.15 million without a sweat…so I can transfer to Delta, bwahahahahah. If I did that, I would ask Frequent Miler for stacking advice 🙂 Ok, but maybe these spend promos in the Amex Biz Platinum are more reasonable for you.
A sharp reader caught the Million Mile Secrets post last week about the Bank of America ongoing promo to let card holders to get into museums for free in the first weekend of the month. Only it was the second weekend of the month. WTF…with all this staff around? Must have been busy taking pics of Emily in so many poses I guess.
All bloggers want to be like The Points Guy. And have articles and shows done on them by clueless journalists who think they are some big time hackers and never EVER mention their severe conflicts of interest pumping credit cards to their readers every single day, sad! Bloggers laboring away trying to make it in an awfully competitive market in a hobby that is dying totally dependent on…banks continuing this charade. Maybe I should interview Chris Elliott 🙂
We touched on how bloggers in their desperation to push plastic…started to do all kinds of posts about the new Amex Platinum card being sent to them, the packaging of it, how it is all metal and other nonsense. I mean, so much stupid BS…like taking photos, even videos of the package and other moronic stuff…only to serve their affiliate link as many times as they can hoping some clueless newbie bites. But this one takes the cake, wow. It is wood baby, woooood. WTF to infinity!
Still waiting for The Points Guy to revise Delta Skymiles valuation lol.
And just a select roundup of posts below that would never see the light of day if there were no juicy commissions from every sucker who clicked on their affiliate links. The more you do, the more of these posts you get! I mean, how many times will One Mile at a Time sell the darn Citi Prestige card, WOW!
You may say, TBB you hypocritical no integrity sob, this is what you do here, you were caught adding an extra paragraph selling hard two months ago! Yeah, guilty as charged. My selling sucks…I swear The Points Guy sells as many credit cards in a few hours as I do the whole year here! I can go on but will save the cut and paste in my once a month pumpy “Support TBB” post, thanks for understanding and the support. I need to sign off shortly…
My weekend was great, I caught up in many things I had in process. And the weekend weather was awesome, spring is in the air. Until the next snowstorm that is.
And I leave you with this…

Good Morning Buzz!
Thought leader Gary Leff shared this thought: “Why are you using an airline based credit card? Are you trying to get rid of that filthy lucre or are you just stupid?
Of course, Gary didn’t use those exact words:
http://viewfromthewing.boardingarea.com/2017/04/08/value-of-miles-how-much-frequent-flyer-miles-worth/
With the cost of awards increasing, cost of cash tickets decreasing (a lot, at least for now), availability of awards shrinking* and cash back opportunities getting richer, I think Gary’s valuations may be high.
*AA award availability is not shrinking since, in large measure, there is none.
HT: VFTW, OMAAT, TPG and FTG (‘cause now we really need travel at prices we can all afford).
Buenos dias!
Liked that headline somewhere: “Should Skymiles be called Skyshit?”
What, no lols for the pic yet?
Another day full of cheery posts from bloggers telling us how easy it is to travel the world for free and tell family and friends to click on our website and then pray they get hooked and get credit cards from the site…
Anyways, got to Starbucks this morning and wondering how I can’t see much….I forgot to put my eye contacts on, WTF TBB! It must be I was so excited about the 43 cents my site brought in over the weekend #winning=losing?
I had no idea ScottCaslte rents his bot out…this explains it. This sneaky Nick dude…
Got wife a triple venti cascara latte with coconut milk extra hot for freeeee at Starbucks this morning when she brought my contacts case. I can see now, hooray!
I think I am in the mood for Ramen for lunch today…
Hey BestOffersPatrol, time to help with your once a weekly post bro?
“You can also read about how Brian uses points and miles to take trips to places like the St. Regis Maldives where he stayed in an overwater bungalow, or how he flew in Singapore Suites from Los Angeles to Tokyo on a seat that turns into a full size bed, or the flight he described on CBS where he traveled in his own three cabin suite on Etihad and had his very own personal”
1. What about how he paid over $1100/night to get an overwater bungalow at the Hyatt? That’s just how normal people vacation, right?
2. I forget, did he have the most amazing experience ever on etihad (after paying north of $30k for it)? Or did they lose his bags? Hmmm…..
3. Is making Julian write this article considered cruel and unusual punishment, or just regular hazing?
but…”they’re traveling for FREE!!!” Don’t let facts get in the way of a good pimp!
Anxiously awaiting to see how they use the United viral video to sell more plastic…
GTL isn’t doing so well at leveraging the incident with this awful post
http://viewfromthewing.boardingarea.com/2017/04/10/beating-doctor-united-flight-terrible-maybe-unavoidable/
“Beating Up a Doctor on a United Flight Was Terrible… But Maybe Unavoidable”
Bruh.
Don”t fall for this crap…all bloggers posting and hoping to get clicks based on what went viral…
Please no more direct links of the Titan blogs. They get laid PER click!
Oops, sorry, paid per click I mean lol.
Oops, I wasn’t even thinking about the link sorry man!
You’re right it’s clickbait as always but still I would’ve thought he’d have some standards!
Oh and feel free to edit or delete my comment with the link if you want, won’t hurt my feelings and will prevent any more clicks to GTL!
OMg that poor boy with the shark crochet!! Grandma wasn’t thinking with that one!
UNITED AIRLINES FORCIBLY REMOVES PASSENGER FOR WEARING SWEAT PANTS!!!
http://www.foxnews.com/travel/2017/04/10/police-violently-drag-man-from-united-plane-after-airline-reportedly-overbooked-flight.html
most disturbing to me was lady who kept yelling OMG over and over again, they should of dragged her off for being so annoying……………gotta see the real reason behind this story.
could this be a case of a non rev (pass rider) told to deplane (and refused) because a paying passenger showed, not uncommon in my days @ TWA….or was this person wanted for a legal reason, cops were wearing jeans, WTF….. or was he a mental patient who escaped and caught……
I cannot wait to see the internet on this story considering that last weeks legging story was more talked about then the gassing of children in Syria.
I’m surprised they didn’t decide to pay more to make a seat available. $800 versus bad publicity. The normal cost of involuntarily denied boarding in itself is expensive.
Those OMG people are the worst.

United story…..zzzzzzzz…..everyone writing about it because Titans did and because no one has anything else more important to blog about and is good fodder for the next edition of “74 reasons I love my CSP” or “Citi Prestige 4th night benefit is orgasmic”…..
DAMMIT BUZZ, STORY WAS BROKEN HERE FIRST AT TBB BREAKING NEWS by your loyal cub reporter.
How many times are you going to post Stockholm metro photos, George?
United incident completely overshadowed Deltas overbooking spring break flights fiasco.
Hopefully we see more Stockholm pictures. Its day to day cost puts it in the middle of my list, but there’s a lot of beauty there…
Actually I have one more with subway station pics…Stockholm is likely in it 🙂
Can someone get Ramsey a mental health eval? Flips out every time people have a reaction when its possible somebody was mistreated. Oh right hes a Trump guy. Now it makes sense.
No I love it when people are mistreated. Especially you. What are you new around here?
I wish I had you on one of my TWA flights. Your luggage would of been redirected to Djibouti, Djibouti (so nice they named it twice) and your filet steak would of had extra HockaLoogie sauce, complements of F/A Chef Ramsey.
Viva La Trump. He’s making me rich. Viva La Trump Rally.
Cub reporter?? Thought you were an old grouch with issues.
Maybe people are writing about a man dragged screaming from his seat because it was a man dragged screaming from his seat. But sure in Trump Town its normal to blame a lady who had a reaction too it. Find therapy cub reporter.
Easy boys and girls…don’t make me do something not proudly again.
Picking fights in my comments is not cool. Only me fighting with Ingy is #notreally
I am so sick of the UA dragging story!!!
I voted for Prell to go back to the old glass bottle. Then I became deeply cynical.
I agree Trump is the reason man was dragged off plane. It has to be true, read it on Huffington Post. As you knowthey are all about integrity, honesty and are totally non biased reporting, just like CNN.
George, do you intentionally ignore that it is always Ramsey and his aliases in the middle of this BS? A man got yanked off of a United flight and it was on video. Of course people will talk about it. Cmon.
John I knew a bathroom with the same name. Wow coincidence I don’t think so.
Aren’t you Gleff’s pal?
Ramsey I’m not responding to you no matter what user name you use.
Agreeing with Trump Nut Ramsey is always crazy. George not caring about this doctor getting bloodied off the plane is even more crazy. They could have offered a few more $ and people would have jumped out of their chairs to volunteer. Idiots everywhere.
Just kill me…I have no integrity and do not care about bloodied passengers…so sad, Sad!
I could not start a new blog post until I just had to read what Mommy Points had to say on tbe subject.
Yawn.
Thanks to the reader who got an SPG card, u were just approved! No yawn.
Thanks for the support Sad!
Scott Castle gave me a broken bot, i’m always last!
