4 Buy Miles / Points Promos Ending Soon: IHG Hotels (60%), Etihad (30%), Hawaiian Airlines (100%) & Air Canada (100%)

Good afternoon everyone, happy Friday! I was working on my Buy Miles & Points Page and found 4 offers that end this week.  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 the 4 offers that end soon.

Up first, IHG Hotels is offering up to a 60% bonus, depending on the number of IHG One Rewards Points you purchase. This offer expires on July 14.
