There are some of us in this world who value frequent flier miles more than we do money or precious metals. Every point we earn is a point closer to reaching the promised land of a free flight or a free vacation. Even if you are one of those types that checks their statement religiously and is on top of things, Points.com can be a very helpful tool.
