With the 25% off promo on California travel, I can get to Select for as little as $169. Unfortunately, that'll involve 25 round-trips to the exciting town of Hanford between now and March 31, which I'm not so thrilled about. (It'll actually be a few less than that because I'm going to take some other fun trips in there too, but that's close enough for this post.)
I plan to do a ton of traveling later in the year, including buying either a 30 or 45-day rail pass in the summer, so it seems like I really should try to get to Select or Select Plus as soon and as cheaply as possible to maximize my bonus points. I'd also be getting points at $0.0338 each during the promo, which isn't that much more than buying the points.
I don't really even know why I'm asking this. I think I'm looking for someone to talk some sense into me and tell me it's a waste of time, but I'm guessing I won't find that on this forum.
