meaning i get 2.25x using the MP Explorer card.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/files\/2015\/03\/untitled1.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6775\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/files\/2015\/03\/untitled1.png\" alt=\"untitled\" width=\"671\" height=\"478\" srcset=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled1.png 671w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled1-300x213.png 300w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled1-400x284.png 400w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled1-200x142.png 200w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled1-150x106.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>get shopping!<\/p>\n<p>quickie on how to do it: during the checkout process, you&#8217;ll see a box to enter &#8220;Gift cards and promotional codes&#8221;. fire up the app on your phone, select Amazon as the merchant, enter the total amount of the purchase, and buy your virtual gift card. after authenticating with your MileagePlus password or PIN, you&#8217;ll get a gift certificate code you can either use to shop on your device, or type it into that gift card field on your computer and hit Apply, which will bring your total down to $0.<\/p>\n<p>(here&#8217;s the fine print:)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/files\/2015\/03\/untitled2.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-6777\" src=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/files\/2015\/03\/untitled2.png\" alt=\"untitled\" width=\"562\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled2.png 562w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled2-168x300.png 168w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled2-400x711.png 400w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled2-200x355.png 200w, http:\/\/first2board.com\/wanderlusty\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/48\/\/sites\/48\/2015\/03\/untitled2-150x266.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 562px) 100vw, 562px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[note: i&#8217;m not a points person, so i don&#8217;t know all the ins and outs &#8212;
