About once per year they offer a deal whereby if you sign up for the Southwest Airlines credit card, they give you 50,000 points. That's about $800 worth of flying and it only costs $69 (per year) for the card. So you sign up for the credit card and drop it a few months later (you keep the points). Both my wife and I did this last year so we both have a truckload of free flying available.
