I have a few ending in 1000. It's annoying when looking at a receipt and trying to figure out which card I used.

Before I bought the Altima I was driving my father's old Venture with 130K on it.
Broke down and bought a car after my wife got stuck when it ran out of fuel because the gas gauge was broken...

Still who doesn't have 130K miles?

A certain relative of mine who gets a $100 statement credit on his Chase Freedom every time he accumulates 10K miles.

Why? Because I haven't convinced him yet to do otherwise...
