Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday! I was working on my Buy Miles & Points Page and found 3 offers that are ending in the next few days. Always check the math to make sure that buying miles & points makes sense for you. Do not buy miles & points speculatively unless you have a use in mind. With that said, here are 3 offers that end soon. Up first, Southwest Airlines is offering a 30% discount, on any purchase of Southwest Airlines Rapid Rewards Points. This offer expires on September 5.
Good morning everyone, happy Labor Day Weekend. If you live near the San Francisco Bay Area and want a discounted Alaska Airlines flight, listen up. Tomorrow, Saturday, September 4, the San Francisco Giants are giving out 2 for 1 flight vouchers on Alaska Airlines to the first 40,000 fans in attendance. Alaska Airlines (and previously Virgin America) are big sponsors of the San Francisco Giants and do this giveaway every year – I wrote about this promo in 2017, 2018, and 2019. If you want to get cheap tickets to the game, check out StubHub, SeatGeek, or Gametime. If you cannot attend the game, I am sure you will be able to find these vouchers on eBay shortly after the game.

Good morning everyone, I hope you had a great weekend. Long story short, I bought a few things at Home Depot, forgot to return them within the standard return period, and ended up with $175.86 in Home Depot store credit. I figured Home Depot store credit would be easy to use, like a regular Home Depot gift card, but boy was I wrong. I ran into the issue when I tried to buy some outdoor patio furniture slipcovers online. When I entered the Home Depot store credit information into the gift card payment field, I got an error message saying “We’re sorry. Home Depot store credit can only be used in stores. Please use a different payment method.” Dang, Home Depot took “store credit” very literally. After some persistence and a visit to my local Home Depot store, I was able to use my Home Depot store credit for an online purchase. Keep reading to learn more.
Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday. If you have no plans tomorrow (Saturday, August 28), I highly recommend attending the FTU Virtual Seminar (tickets available for $25) or free if you have the FTU Online Annual Membership. The seminar starts on Saturday, August 28 at 8am PT / 11am ET. I have attended all of the FTU Virtual Seminars over the last several months and they are always well done, educational, and entertaining – and I am sure this seminar will be no exception! Here is the schedule and lineup of speakers.
If you register for the seminar on Saturday, but are unable to watch the live stream, you can access the recording of the seminar and watch later on. This is also a great way to re-watch your favorite presentations and catch any details that you originally missed.
