I'm a wizened road warrior who flies more than 175,000 miles a year and spends about 200 nights a year at hotels. I also have elite status with four airlines and five hotel programs (including top-tier status with American Airlines AAdvantage and World of Hyatt).
But one of my favorite loyalty programs is one that doesn't touch travel at all: MyMcDonald's Rewards.
Despite a devaluation this year that made it a bit less rewarding — most items now require 500 more points — it's still a super valuable program that anyone who regularly gets McDonald's should join.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
