My AA miles are expiring soon and have no travels booked! Anything quick wins/low $ spend which could help with not losing those miles?

Thank you!

AA lets you donate miles to charity but the conversion rates are pretty poor. Shopping portal is probably the best bet to keep activity on your account without changing habits (assuming you already spend $ at those places)

Thanks BCG! Welcome any further suggestions!

For me easiest has always been to purchase minimum miles (I think 2000, for $75) directly from AA. Points get posted immediately. May not be the cheapest way but least effort.

Hello fishes, I joined Nagarro on 24th of August. But still no project is assigned yet. Basically I am on bench. Now I am about to get an offer from ServiceNow. I really wanna join ServiceNow as it's a big product based organisation and the competition is really high compared to Nagarro. ServiceNow is giving me a joining date of 1st October. As I am still on bench, will I get released by Nagarro soon ? Because no project is allocated to me.
