And the details:

- Reserve a compact to premium size car at participating US and Canada locations

- Don’t forget, there’s a 4-day maximum on your rental

Be sure to take advantage of this great rate before it disappears. And when checking in, don’t forget to provide your favorite frequent flyer number to earn additional miles!

Remember the 25,000 Continental miles you received for opening up a Chase checking account in 2009? (you did open this - right…) Well the offer is back again for 2010 (through March) and is an easy and inexpensive way to pick up 25,000 miles.

In addition, there is also an offer for another 25,000 miles for opening a Business checking account. Don’t have a business – sure you do! You’re a “sole proprietor” and your SSN easily takes the place of a business’ EIN when opening.

[Remember: When printing the vouchers hit the refresh button in between printings in order to get your unique coupon code]

This is an easy way to accumulate 50,000 miles for minimal cost, and with the 25,000 you should have received in 2009 (you did… right?), you are well on your way to a roundtrip ticket in Business or First Class!
