I’ve previously written about the free Northwest miles opportunities at Worldperks University (here and here)
Two new courses, each with 100 free miles for reading short fact sheets about the program and answering ~ 3 questions about those fact sheets, are available. After completing each course there are also additional bonus miles opportunities available.
If you haven’t previously taken the courses, that’s 500 free miles. For folks who’ve tracked them all along, it’s another 200 free miles.
Thanks to Free Frequent Flyer Miles for the heads up about the new courses. That website summarizes the bonus mile offers on top of the free miles:

After completion, click on the “View your extra credit Bonus Miles” link to see what you get. I was offered 500 miles for making a purchase on my Northwest Airlines credit card in the billing cycle following completion of the quiz.
When attempting to evaluate deals like this, what value do you use? I’ve been using 1 cent a mile, which would make a 500 mile offer $5. Not nothing, but not something to get giddy over.
