bumping and restating slightly
Delta offers their Mileage Booster offer on each leg, $29 for 1000 miles, $44 for 2000, $59 for 3000. Normally these should be ignored, but it seems like an eligible expense for the $50 statement credit. Assuming that the I'm not using this card for everyday expenses and I'm just looking to meet my thresholds for the mileage bonuses, does it make sense to splurge for $9 on 3118 miles? Or $68 on 6,236 (assuming I've done the math right)?
