Well according to this WSJ article, it’s true. For those of us who have ever been burned by airline miles (I’ve complained on at least one occasion, myself), apparently the airlines are dipping into a new way to make pay-offs—including plastic surgery, big-screen TVs, lawn tractors (?), and even dinner with the New York Yankees.

Seems odd, to me, but then again, I could use a big-screen TV?

Would you cash in your miles for something other than, you know, miles?

Bis bald, friends!
