Buy Some Flowers for the Holidays and Earn United Airlines Miles

The advertisers on television are telling us all that the holiday season is officially here and try as we might we can’t avoid it. Let the season of too much food, endless parties, needless shopping and, yes, good cheer begin. While you are eating too much food, attending endless parties, doing some needless shopping and experiencing good cheer, you can also earn some free miles for that vacation you will need once it is all over. United Airlines has a promotion going right now with FTD.com where you can earn 20 miles for every $1 you spend on flowers and other goodies. The online promotion code is 10372 or you can shop over the telephone (how quaint!) by calling 1-800-SEND-FTD.

Let me be the first, or the 7,000th, to wish you a happy holiday season.
