What’s the best way to stock up on Hilton points. Saw some promos to buy your points but wonder if there are other hacks like credit card churning.

Churning isn’t really a hack lol.

Plenty of Hilton cards to churn and rack up sign up bonuses. Never speculatively buy points.

Someone can “gift” you Hilton points as well.m usually at a cheaper rate than what is sold on the website. As D1 says, don’t be a speculative buyer

At one time I had status on most airlines and hotels but I never bothered to focus on accumulating points since it seemed like they were infinite and I booked on convenience. Oh have times changed! I even let go of Amex platinum, just wasn’t worth it to me. Base airport LAX/SNA so no airline pref.
