How I Bought my Tesla with Gift Cards

White Tesla from Tesla’s Website But if there’s one rule in our household, it is that nothing -absolutely nothing- gets purchased without earning miles or points out of the transaction.

Hyatt’s Best Rate Guarantee: Stud or Dud?
When it comes to hotel best rate guarantees, I’m usually pretty skeptical. Hotels always seem to find some loophole or make it prohibitively difficult to avoid honoring it. In the end, they’re usually nothing more than a good marketing tool. Typically, I’ve avoided using guarantees for those reasons. If the price is close, I’ll book through the hotel’s site. This still allows me to enjoy elite benefits...

Japan Airlines Sale: US to Asia in Business Class from $1,800
Let’s face it, flights from the US to Asia are long. Until teleportation becomes a thing, you’re looking at a minimum of 10 hours from the west coast and 13 hours from the east coast. On flights that long, having a flat bed to sleep in makes a huge difference. However, unless you’ve got a stockpile of points, you’re usually looking at $4,000+ for that privilege. Even then, you might be looking at a less...

More than a dozen volunteers formed a relay team of drivers and in total drove over 2,000 miles to reunited the family! From Fox2 News in Detroit, a family “friend” in Montana stole the dog a couple of months back and was pulled...
