I Just Bought A W Bed – Great Sale at RueLaLa
Yesterday I wrote about my experience using the American Express return protection benefit on a final-sale order at RueLaLa.  Ironically enough, I voluntarily placed another final-sale order at RueLaLa tonight. With a growing family, it seems like our bed is shrinking, and we’ve been talking about upgrading to a king bed for some time now. I … [Read More…]
American Express Return Protection Benefit – A Sweet Surprise
I have to give Mr. Points Traveler credit. He recently surprised me with a nice box of clothes from RueLaLa out of the blue. I’m not sure what prompted his nice gesture, but it sure felt good knowing that he spent time picking out outfits for me. When the box came, I was super excited … [Read More…]

My Sweet Call With US Bank + My Club Carlson Strategy
Last week was a crazy week in the points and miles world. First, Wyndham came out with a surprise from nowhere, and then Club Carlson did the same (except one was a pleasant surprise and the other… not so much). If you’ve missed it, a major benefit of the Club Carlson Premier Rewards Visa Signature® Card is … [Read More…]
An Über Contest I Need to Win
With baby #2 coming in the almost-single-digits-range (plus both my birthday and my husband’s birthday both fall in this range too!), it was a delight to see that Uber is giving away a night out on the town (childcare included!) to someone at random on April 10. HOW IT WORKS: Open your app Tap the … [Read More…]
Dad Post: Choosing My Next Value Destination Using the 2015 Big Mac Index
Back in 2013 , I wrote a blog post about how I would choose my next travel destination using “The Big Mac Index“.

I’m Obsessed With Boxes + Here’s How I Never Spend Money on Beauty Products
I have a little secret to share. Last year, I wrote a blog post about how I haven’t purchased bath products in years because of all of my time spent at hotels (how much do you take from your hotel room?). There’s something else I want to share… I’m pretty much obsessed with monthly beauty boxes as … [Read More…]
Awesome Round Trip Intra-Asia Discount Awards For 5,000 JAL Miles
Last week, Dad wrote a post that shared the details of how he used points and miles for a first-class trip to Thailand and Cambodia. Within that post, he mentioned a little-known “sweet-spot” redemption instead of paying for a round-trip flight between Bangkok and Siem Reap that usually costs $250-$350. Since the post was published, … [Read More…]
