How the Journey Took off!

I was your typical traveler, saved and saved for a weeks vacation and this was to stay at a 2* hotel.

Then about 6 years ago, someone said to me "Pay for a coach ticket and upgrade to First Class using Air Miles". This is when I started exploring the web going to the websites of many of the Airline Companies.

Low and behold on every major airline site there is a mall and many ways to get Air Miles.

I registered for every Frequent Flier Program and every hotel chain program and every rent a car program. I had tons of numbers and learned how to link them together.

I figured I buy gas, shop in grocery stores, drug stores, Home Depot, and Lowe's so why shouldn't I get the Delta Credit Card. This card gave double points for every purchase at these places. We had to eat, get gas, and we had a once a week trip to CVS for something so why shouldn't I get an extra benefit for spending our hard earned money. It was amazing how fast the Miles started to add up just from our everyday living expenses.
