15K Referral Points Posting for Referring Friends to 75K Barclays Wyndham Rewards Earner Plus Credit Card

Posted on by . 3 Replies

Good morning everyone, happy Saturday!  Last month, I wrote Refer Friends to the 75K Barclays Wyndham Rewards Earner Plus Credit Card & Earn 15K Points (45K Yearly Cap).  In that post, I shared how you could find your referral link and refer friends to the 75K sign up offer for the Barclays Wyndham Rewards Earner Plus Credit Card.  The terms and conditions of the referral offer said the bonus points “can take up to 6-8 weeks from June 30, 2023 to appear on your statement.”  I’m happy to report that the referral bonus points posted on my May credit card statement even though I had no other activity.

My Experience Using the InKind App at 3 Restaurants in Seattle

Posted on by . 3 Replies

Good morning everyone.  A few days ago, I spent a long weekend with my brother and dad in Seattle.  We went to a few Seattle Kraken hockey games, a few Seattle Mariners baseball games, went on a locks cruise to Lake Union, took off in a sea plane from Lake Union, and wandered around Woodland Park Zoo.  With all of those activities, we worked up big appetites.  Luckily, I had some InKind credit to use and there were many excellent restaurants in Seattle that worked with InKind.  If you are unfamiliar with InKind, please read My Experience with the InKind App to Pay Restaurant Bill, $25 Referral Credit, & $50 AMEX Offer.

In today’s post, I will highlight the restaurants I went to, the issue I encountered with splitting an InKind bill with my brother, and the $24 March Madness bonus I unlocked.  Since I tend to eat early and I like good deals, we did happy hour at Bourbon Steak, Tavolata, and The Victor Tavern.  There are many restaurants throughout Seattle that partner with InKind.  To see the whole list, go to the Explore tab, type in the city name, and then click the up arrow at the bottom of the screen.
