One of My Favorite Things...Cyber Monday

You can keep the raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens,
bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens... one of my favorite things is earning miles.

Today, is one of my FAVORITE days of the year.  Yep.  Cyber Monday! An opportunity to get great deals, free shipping and MILES for buying a little something for friends, family and of course, a little somethin' somethin' for myself.  After all, I've managed to get on Santa's "Nice" list this year! (Major Accomplishment)

I encourage you to visit your frequent flyer program's online shopping site to earn miles -- in some cases, double miles-- for your holiday purchases at a variety of online retailers like Target, Macys, Best Buy, Walmart, Nordstrom, Brookstone, Home Depot and the Apple Store. You will find great gifts for the people on your list, regardless of price point.   I plan to rack up on deals and miles for electronics, apparel, winterwear and more.

Don't miss out on an opportunity to earn miles through your frequent flyer or rewards program online shopping sites like Aadvantageeshopping, US Airways Dividend Miles Storefront, Southwest Rapid Rewards Shopping or SkyMiles Shopping not just on Cyber Monday but throughout the holiday season.

Avoid lines in the stores and enjoy the benefit of earning miles from your couch and having your holiday purchases delivered right to your front door!  That's one of my favorite perks of being Santa's little helper...convenience! :)

Happy Holidays!
