Ways to Save: Gift Giving

While searching for sales is a great way to save money, there's another way to save you may never have thought of. You could cash in your frequent flier miles and credit card points.  It could be your best bet.

Why not use that as though it were money instead of going into your pocket and spending cash that has to come out of your wallet?

Those points and miles can get you everything from magazine subscriptions to gift cards or even electronics.  You can give frequent flier miles to a family member saving up for a big trip or even make donations to charity by turning your credit card points into cash.
While many think credit cards and pricey airlines are the enemy, if you're trying to cut costs, those points could become your greatest ally in the battle to save this holiday season.  You can check your point status by looking at your credit card or frequent flier account either online or by calling the company.
