    United Miles For 1.18 US Cents - via Choice Hotels

    The 30% bonus points haven't come through yet... just the normal transfer amount. Which is still not bad compared to buying straight from united (even considering their latest promotions). So 0.015 us cents a point so far which is still pretty good. Hoping the 30% extra comes in the next month...

    5,000 Velocity points with a pet insurance policy

    I have been tossing up on whether to apply for this as well. I noticed there is a similar offer from Flybys that might be more attractive. It is 10k flybuys through medibank (which with my calcs is 4,350). I plugged in the costs for my cat (2yr old male), and 3 months is $16 monthly. Still not...

    FlyBuys - Explore Gold offer

    @nightelves, I just remembered something else which might help your situation if I am reading your situation correctly. The full gold tacks on to the end of the explore gold. This is irrespective of when you earn the 80 SC to get the full gold. So effectively you get 3 months explore and then...

    Hilton Honors Macquarie Platinum Card

    Applied for this on the 31st August and...... Denied. I may have had too many cc sign up's this year. It is the second card I have been declined for over the last 6 months. Ah well, a few months off new cc's for me I think. Have SPG/Marriot gold, so will keep using them for the time being.

    Wow, I managed to snaffle 1 x 18k. And paid for another subscription 2 days ago for the wife. Fingers crossed the voucher that comes through is for 18k points rather than the 9k.
