Good morning everyone, it looks like American Express loaded a few more AMEX Offers into the system. The new offers are: Google Play, Vince Online, City Sports, and Brooks Brothers. The best offer is for Google Play: spend $5 and get a $5 statement credit. This offer was loaded to all of my AMEX cards.
Good evening everyone, I was just looking through my recent American Express Platinum Charge Card statement when I saw major changes to the Membership Reward Program. Effective October 1, the transfer rate to British Airways and Iberia will change from 1,000 Membership Reward Points = 1,000 British Airways / Iberia Avios to 250 Membership Reward Points = 200 British Airways / Iberia Avios. This is terrible news since British Airways is arguably one of the best transfer partners for Membership Reward Points.
Good morning everyone, I have a new round of AMEX Offers to share: Dollar General / Dollar General Market, Orchard Supply Hardware (OSH), Hof’s Hut, Gump’s, and The Pierre New York. The only offer that excites me is the Dollar General offer: spend $25 and get a $5 statement credit. This offer is only valid for in-store purchases, online orders are excluded.
Good morning everyone. Yesterday at work, my coworker mentioned the recent round of AMEX Offers (yes, I work with people who are miles and points collectors too). I told him about my recent gift card score at Home Depot ($75 of Panera Bread and $75 of Starbucks Gift Cards) and then I told him that there were no third party gift cards at Whole Foods. He told me that I could reload my Clipper Card (card used for public transportation around the Bay Area and to/from SFO and OAK airports) at Whole Foods. Really? This was too good to be true, so I had to test it out. After work, I took my Clipper Card “shopping” at Whole Foods to find out.
Good morning everyone, yesterday I wrote New AMEX Offers: Home Depot, Whole Foods, Fairway Market, and Hilton Garden Inn. In that post, I recommended buying gift cards at various merchants to complete the AMEX Offers. I knew Home Depot sold third party gift cards, but I wasn’t sure about the others. Last night after work, I went hunting for gift cards at Home Depot. I needed to buy $75 worth of gift cards to trigger the $15 statement credit ($15 back represents a 20% discount on the face value of the gift card).
