Cheap air travel via bulk cheese purchasing

Buy a wheel of Swiss Knights Fondue and Cheese and you get 500 AAdvantage air-miles -- that's like a trip to Australia for $1,100 -- a serious bargoon (if you can book far enough in advance to use your miles, of course).
This weekend I was handed an opened wheel of processed cheeses by a friend. He said that his brother-in-law had caught wind of a frequent flyer promotion whereby you get 500 miles for each purchase of this cheese wheel and had purchased 75,000 miles for ~$300, which also means he's got more opened cheese wheels than he knows what to do with.
