What's the biggest purchase you've made with your credit card points? Getting a round business class trip to Australia during the COVID year was my best one yet! Trying to one-up that, but it's probably going to take a lot more point-building before that. Give me some inspiration on what I can do with my 300K points ... or should I keep building?

I've never been the lounge person but pictures and videos I've seen from my friends have convinced me I'm missing out. I also have a lot of traveling planned for next year so I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea to get used to the lounge life. Help a newbie out - what's the best card for great lounge access??
