BEFORE I GO
I'll leave you a few tips on how to get alot of miles fast.
1. Visit the Click fix every day. You can get at least 30 miles a day just by clicking on milesource's partner sites (shouldn't take more than 5-10 minutes a day)
2. Play the Flight Tower Trivia. Milesource has 3 trivia questions everyday. Answer them correctly, and you're eligible for a 1,000 mile giveaway drawing every day.
3. Shopping. If you like to shop online, do it thru milesource.com. they have 100's of stores to choose from, and the best part is that they give you 2 miles for every dollar spent. Some stores even offer free shipping.
4. Refer friends. When you refer friends, you earn 10% of what they earn, plus 5% of what their friends earn, plus 5% of what THEIR friends, etc. For life. I know some people who earn about 200 miles a day just in referrals, without lifting a finger, or spending a cent.
THAT'S IT
Hope you like it.
