Starbucks. What would I do without you?! And whatever you may think of the coffee chain, it’s one of the most successful businesses in the world. That’s because, since the return of their CEO Howard Schultz, the company has made smart business decisions.
One of those smart decisions: change the way their loyalty program works. Come April, the Starbucks Rewards program is going to be revenue based, which is a big change from what it is now.

Not interested in using credit cards to save big on travel? You’re certainly not alone. Getting a credit card with travel rewards isn’t always easy. And even after you get it, you may find it’s not worth the annual cost (it likely has). Don’t worry! There are ways you can still save big without any credit cards. And in my opinion, one of the best ways to do so is to consider using Costco Travel.
It pains me to say but one of my favorite aircraft of all time is nearing retirement. The 747, believe it or not, just turned 47 years old! Yeah, hard to believe!
It was on February 9th, 1969 when, shortly after the first 747 took to the sky for the first time, commercial air travel changed forever. Since it’s introduction to commercial flight, the Boeing 747 (aptly named the Queen of the Skies) has ruled the skies. But as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. A particularly nasty virus is making it’s way around the world in quick fashion. In fact, the World Health Organization has already said this bug is “spreading explosively” through the Americas. It’s called the Zika virus, and is spread through the bite of an infected mosquito. In a relatively short amount of time, nearly 40 people in at least 11 states have been diagnosed with the Zika virus in the U.S.
Now, this virus isn’t deadly to a relatively healthy person (at least that’s what I gather from everything I’ve read). The symptoms include fever, rashes, muscle/joint pain, headaches, and more. What makes this a nasty virus is what it does to a baby while it’s developing inside of mom. |
