Starwood Preferred Guest (SPG) Audience Rewards Trivia Update (9-16-11)
Good Friday to everyone! Today we finally have the next round of SPG Audience Rewards questions available to answer for some free points. I have had good luck this week because all 3 of my Delta accounts, and now my SPG page, are showing the 20 point/mile question. My patience, or earliness, has paid off. Now lets get to the questions.
- How many Tony Awards has Stephen Schwartz been nominated for? 6
- True or False? Andrew Lloyd Webber does not have a show called The Likes of Us. False
- Before he worked as a lyricist, Don Black also tried his hand at what profession? Stand Up Comic
- In Rent, Mark is an aspiring what? Film-Maker
- In Bonnie and Clyde, what is Clyde’s last name? Barrow
- (20 points) Lysistrata Jones was produced by what NYC theatre company before its Broadway premiere? Transport Theatre Company
There is still time to snag your free Delta and US Airways free miles via Audience Rewards. There is also a lot of hope riding on the US Airways questions and that they will count towards a “Hit” with the Grand Slam promotion. The latest questions were released the day the Grand Slam started, so there is a good chance when they credit a couple of days from now, they will register as a hit. We will see. I will be following the Grand Slam closely in other future threads. Good luck!
As a quick note, there are also Amtrak and Best Buy Audience Rewards trivia questions to earn free points, but I was not going to collect them unless my readers wanted me too. I am still going to hold off on the Best Buy program, but I am going to start documenting the Amtrak rewards in the future because I found an excellent benefit…the Show Points earned through the program can be converted 1:1 into Amtrak points, thus double points. Then Amtrak points can be converted into various other airline miles. I will talk about all of this in a future post.
The response to providing these questions and answers to earn you free miles and points has been wonderful, so thank you loyal readers for your support! Together we can get towards the goal of Save Money, Travel More.
Thank you for providing quick and easy answers. I am so confused as to how you are able to earn miles in multiple programs for answering Audience Rewards trivia. For instance, if you click on a link provided for Delta which is https://www.audiencerewards.com/delta/trivia.cfm, in order to earn Delta miles, you would log-in on the left side with your Delta account and after answering all the questions, will be prompted to “link” Audience Rewards account to Delta specifically. If no Audience Rewards account provided, a new one will be assigned (even if you had one but didn’t supply). This way each Audience Rewards account become linked only to one FF program. So, how do you then earn points/miles in other FF program?
@YK: Great question, especially when you are trying to manage an entire family worth of accounts. There are several ways to do it. Personally, I have each account with each airline set up under a separate email address. So for example, we have three accounts with Delta, and I set it up all under my gmail account. The great thing about gmail is that if your email address has periods in it (i.e. xxx.xxx.xxx@gmail.com), the periods can be moved to any other point (or none at all) within the same email, and it will all go to the same account. So you can set up one account under xxx.xxx.xxx@gmail.com, another under xxxxxx.xxx@gmail.com, and another with xxxxxxxxx@gmail.com, or any other combination, and it will 1) count as a new email for your Audience Rewards account, and 2) it will all end up in the same email account.
So you can go through each of the Audience Rewards programs and create a new account for each. That is how I have each of ours done, which is a lot to manage, I know. It was not until I got around to creating my SPG account that I realized within Audience Rewards you can set up each separate program and set it to which program you want to earn rewards in.
This would mean that for each program you would have to go into Audience Rewards and change the default earning preference.
Personally, I prefer keeping them all under separate accounts because I do not want to go in a switch things around each time. I also do not want to throw up any red flags with Audience Rewards for some reason when they would see an account for each of us earning points/miles in all of these programs. Either way, it is up to you which method works best for you. You can easily manage it all in a simple spreadsheet to keep it all straight, which I highly recommend so you know which email address is linked to which account.
Good luck. I will work on making this a new post/page for easy reference for others.
