1. I've gotten 2 round trip tickets to Europe from credit card deals like this.

United and Delta, since most major airlines in USA partner with them. They used to be free for a yr, then would cancel them. They don't give as many miles these days, but they are still worthwhile.

1 for home, 1 for business. Charge something. Pay it off. Make sure miles credit. Cancel.

It may make my credit rating drop some but I don't really care about that. 2 free tickets, used for summer travel, planned 8 months ahead. WONDERFUL!
