Orphaned miles — you know, the extra few hundred you have sitting around with nowhere to go? — can actually be a valuable thing.

Take, for example, the member-exclusive offer from HawaiianMiles to turn those miles into magazines. For as little as 600 miles (and for up to 2,100 miles) you can order a year’s subscription to such publications as Time, Self, Parenting, and Entrepreneur.
