Nov 27 Update: Bonus Marriott Rewards points for Gift Cards, Aegean Miles and Bonus 10th Anniversary contest, US Airways Marriott bonus

Happy Tuesday to everyone!

News, Tips & Tricks

The best news today and what is also a tip comes to us from Marriott Rewards.
For the past few years, Marriott has rewarded Marriott Rewards members with
bonus points for purchasing Marriott Gift Cards during certain times of the
year and that time is back. The latest version of the Marriott Gift Card bonus
points offer is out, which you should take advantage of if you have or plan
to have upcoming Marriott stays since you will earn miles/points using a credit
card to purchase the gift card, get the bonus points for the gift card and then
earn your regular Marriott Rewards points for the actual stay. A very easy triple
dip and if you registered for the MegaBonus, or any future promos you could
consider it a quadruple dip (very similar to the Aeroplan Best Western Gift
Card offer from this past summer)

Aegean Miles&Bonus, the program that is famous for offering the easiest
route Star Alliance Gold status is 10 years old and to celebrate they a running
a contest where the person who guesses the closest amount of miles awarded by
Aegean Miles&Bonus over its 10 year history will win Businesss Class tickets
and hotel stays. More details can be found here.
