Deals/Deal Requests / Re: Hertz Cars on Sale for Good Prices!

« on: June 05, 2020, 04:37:01 PM »

Many people have very good experiences with rental car sales.  We buy them for our salespeople who put a ton of miles on for a few years and then re-sell them.
In the world of used cars the most likely sources are off-lease and off-fleet.  I find that off-lease may be less abused but have very poor maintenance.

I'll also add that the used car market (not necessarily including private sales) is very efficient.  Prices move very logically and consistently and any glut being sold off by Hertz is going to be consistent with the market.

Goods For Sale/Trade / Re: Gifting Mosaic status

« on: May 14, 2020, 03:59:06 PM »

I've frequently been the only passenger pre-boarding in Mosaic line. Hence, the value of certain benefits is inflated as a result of the low number of elites.

Agree with almost everything in your post, except this really depends on the route.  Sometimes I board and they'll say "so you're our Mosaic for today."  But on JFK-FLL flights I've seen 20+ mosaics on line.

Also want to point out why I'm thinking of gifting status to my wife.  When we fly as a family I used to book for myself with $ bc it was worth it to earn the extra points and work towards re-earning status as a Mosaic and for the rest of the family on points.  That was when one piece of luggage was free for everyone.  With the new luggage fees we all have to go on one reservation to get my Mosaic benefits.  If my wife has Mosaic we can go back to the previous method (at least for now).  Thoughts?

Deals/Deal Requests / Deal Request: Starbucks Gift Cards

« on: December 02, 2019, 03:16:58 PM »

I was hoping to give $25 Starbucks gift cards to employees for end-of-year gifts, need 200.

There are retail deals all the time (20% off through Starbucks and Sams Club to name the latest) but I can't find any sort of bulk discount for this. 

If anyone has any ideas I'd be appreciative.
