(especially for people flying home multiple times between Oakland and Los Angeles). for those that don&#8217;t have a rewards card, <strong>GET ONE<\/strong>. for those that do have one, read on. many of you might fly multiple times per year back home, but you NEED 4 round trips to get a rewards ticket and your pts expire after one year. Lets say you plan on flying home 3x within a year. so close to getting a rewards ticket, but yet so far. Since they CAN&#8217;T discriminate you from being un-obese, you can buy 2 tickets and rack up twice the points, since you are buying 2 tickets home and both are under your name, and the only condition that qualifies you for the points is actually making the trip. Some of you might think i&#8217;m crazy. i mean why pay for an extra seat when all you get is one extra round trip, which actually just cancels what you just paid for. well, here&#8217;s the thing. these rewards ticket allow you to fly ANYWHERE within a year (anywhere southwest flies that is). if you plan on &#8220;giving it away&#8221; (<del datetime=\"2007-09-15T02:50:31+00:00\"><a href=\"http:\/\/cgi.ebay.com\/ws\/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&#038;item=1366819120\">example<\/a><\/del>). i believe the link says enough. here&#8217;s my calculation: 4 round trip homes = $75\/round trip * 4 = $300. amount you get for giving this away: ~$300. It&#8217;s almost like southwest actually PAYS you to fly! of course you have to get on during their promotions and right now, round trips from OAK to LAX is only $37.50 (including tax and security fees) each way. hope this helps ^_^x<\/p>\n<p>well, in that same thread, we had a college pride thingy going on. damion mentioned that cal&#8217;s going to kick USC&#8217;s butt, and then some guy thought that was the funniest joke. well, i agree that our team sucked last year, but they&#8217;re having quite a good comeback with their new coach. but worse of all, i recall some friend of mines from ucla sent me this <del datetime=\"2007-09-15T02:50:31+00:00\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ocf.berkeley.edu\/~thon\/media\/usc.mov\">video clip<\/a><\/del>.
