Hi all, it’s been a while since I’ve dropped a line here. I wanted to share the details of my recent trip to Thailand and Cambodia and share some tips and tours we’ve done while there. This first post will go over the routing and hotels we stayed at. Tomorrow I will go over some … [Read More…]
Should Your Hotel “Check Up” On You?
Not too long ago, I posted about my plan to take advantage of a great way to earn a boatload of Club Carlson points by booking a 3-night stay to satisfy several stackable promotions (FYI, the points have posted, and I’ve earned just shy for 60K points). Long story short, I decided to book my … [Read More…]
IHG is Basically Giving Me a Free Night For My Birthday… With Strings Attached
I’m a pretty big fan of IHG’s loyalty program (especially now since the newly-annouced merger with Kimpton), and I recently blogged about why the IHG® Rewards Club Select Credit Card smashes others out of the water. To add icing to the cake, I got what looked like “junk mail” the other day. In fact, it was … [Read More…]
Airport Nursing Pods: A Hit or a Miss?
As someone who is days away from giving birth to baby #2, I came across an post on FlyerTalk that captivated my interest (especially since I already have a flight booked 11 days after my due date!). Some airports are now attracted to the idea of being more family-friendly, with Milwaukee (MKE) being the first airport … [Read More…]

Activate Chase Freedom’s Q2 Categories… But Don’t Forget To Maximize Q1!
The time is now to activate your Chase Freedom 2nd quarter category bonuses. I’m most excited about the 5x at restaurants because I am super guilty of dining out very frequently. Before you shift your energy to Q2, be sure to tackle Q1 by completing the full allowed $1,500 category spend (specifically grocery stores). If you … [Read More…]

My Results from 3 Credit Card Retention Calls
February has always been a busy month for me in the world of credit cards. This time around, 3 annual fees totaling $969(!!) hit simultaneously. Of course, I had no intention of paying that much in annual fees in one shot (in fact, I don’t even pay close to that much in a year), and … [Read More…]
Finally a Mattress Run Worth Doing
With so many changes to airline loyalty programs, I’ve already given up mileage runs. It’s also been a long time since I did a true mattress run, since hotel promos have been less and less enticing recently. One chain that fails to disappoint when it comes to promos and earning points is Club Carlson. In … [Read More…]
I Get Pissed Off When My Hotel Room Doesn’t Have These 5 Things
Inspired by my good friend Dia’s recent post about the 5 travel luxuries she won’t give up, I got myself thinking – I sure do have a laundry list of things I wouldn’t sacrifice while traveling now too (for instance, I vowed to “treat” myself to a flat-bed in business or first class on flights … [Read More…]
