Delta Christmas Bonuses

So sorry I have been neglectful to this blog, but there is a lot of family stuff going on and of course that had to be top priority.

Delta has finally published its Christmas bonuses and it is great.

First thing you must do (if you do not have a skymiles number get one)is register for this promotion, it is called "TIS THE SEASON TO EARN. Delta is offering a 50% miles bonus for all partners listed under the terms ans conditions. So if you purchase something for $100 and you are to get 5 miles per $, that will give you 500 miles plus you will get an additional 250 miles for the same transaction. This will add up very fast.

I found a way to earn even more miles on the Delta site. Go on the skymiles site, ways to earn miles and then hit Featured Limited-Time offers, there is a plethora of offers.Giving someoone wine for the holidays, there is a wine club, getting flowers for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner,FTD has a 25 miles per $ offer. Skymiles dining has a promotion which you must register for earn a bonus 5000 miles. 500 miles for every $50 you spend up to 5000 miles. There are many more listed on this page.

The skymiles shopping mall is also having bonuses on many favorite stores. Barnes and Noble is giving 6 miles per $, k-mart is 3 miles per $ and there are so many others.

So now let's look at the possible earning potential.

Eat out 10 times at $50 each 5000 miles
eat out the same 10 times at 3 miles per $ 150 miles
plus 50 % bonus from 'tis the season promo 75 miles


Order a centerpiece for Thanksgiving at $50
at 25 miles per $ from FTD 1250 miles
plus bonus from 'tis the season promo 625 miles

Get books and music for kids at B&N.com

plus bonus from 'tis the season promo 600 miles

Order regular items at drugstore.com for
$50 at 7 miles per $ 350 miles
plus bonus from 'tis the season promo 175 miles

Spending $820 for all of the above will get you 9425 miles.
You had 10 wonderful meals with family and friends, bought beautiful flowers, got your kids some great music and bought all that cold and cough stuff we all need during this season.

Hope this information inspires you to earn, earn, earn.
