American Airlines E-Gift Card Giveaway
Hello and happy Friday! Since I truly believe in value for value, I thought I would kick off this last weekend in February with a giveaway. How about a $50 American Airlines e-gift card? (Or perhaps 2? See below for more info.)
I write about a lot of topics on this site, so I thought this might be a good opportunity to highlight some of your favorite Miles to Memories posts. With that in mind, here is the contest.
How to Enter
There are two different ways to enter. Here is how:
First, choose one of your favorite posts from the following categories: Manufactured Spending, Credit Cards, Family Travel, Beginners or Deals. Then,
- Leave a comment on this post with the title and a link to your favorite post.
- Follow me on Twitter and tweet @milestomemories with a link to your favorite post and #MtMGiveaway.
Rules
- Each person can receive a total of one entry via this post and one entry via Twitter.
- If 100 or more people enter, I will give away a 2nd $50 e-gift card to another winner, so share with your friends. (Each person can only win once.)
- The contest will run from now until 11:59PM Pacific on Monday 3/2/15.
- The winner(s) will be randomly drawn and the final determination of eligibility is made by me.
Thanks for being such great readers! Good luck!

This was a great article at a time when Ink Plus was offering a higher bonus than the Ink Bold which was in the process of being discontinued, so your logic of applying for the Ink Bold made a lot of sense given that the higher bonus on Ink Plus could still be obtained in the future but once the Ink Bold was discontinued, it was gone forever. Using that logic, I applied for the Ink Bold as well at that time and was very valuable and timely information.
