Yesterday Very Good Points posted<\/a> about a promotion United Airlines was offering where the more that people buy United miles, the bigger the bonus will be. Well the bonus is now at 50%<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"United<\/a>So does this make it a good deal now to buy miles? Well if you were to get the minimum purchase of 5,000 miles for $188.13, you would be getting 7,500 miles at a cost of .025\/mi.<\/p>\n

The Points Guy argues<\/a> that even at a 60% bonus, this is still not a great deal, however, if you need to top off your United balance for that next award, then this would be a good time to do so and it looks like the 60% bonus may be reached by the end of the promotion so you can try your luck.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
