Posted on by . Leave a reply

Good evening everyone, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving and a deal-filled Black Friday (don’t forget about Cyber Monday).  This is super last minute, but I wanted to let everyone in the Bay Area know that there is a SF Travel Hacker Meetup tomorrow night.  I will be there along with several other miles/points/MS/travel enthusiasts.

  • When: Monday, November 30 @ 7:00 PM
  • Where: Dev Bootcamp, 633 Folsom Street, 6th Floor, San Francisco, CA 94107 (Google Map)

If you get to SF early, a few of us will grab dinner/drinks at Soma Eats from 5-6:30pm.  Depending on Cyber Monday madness, I will try to be there by 5:30pm.

Good morning everyone.  I’m writing this post on a very bumpy CalTrain ride from Gilroy, CA to San Francisco.  American Express has released a few new AMEX Offers this morning.  The Macy’s offer is $20 off $120, which I’m sure will come in handy for their upcoming Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals.

New AMEX Offers: ShopRite (Stackable), Hampton by Hilton, Instacart & More

Posted on by . 20 Replies

Good morning everyone.  American Express released a few more AMEX Offers since Monday (19 New AMEX Offers: Amazon, Uber, Toys R Us / Babies R Us & More).  The most interesting offer is for ShopRite: $20 off $75.  That is pretty good on its own, but Frequent Miler reported that you can get $20 in Free Groceries with a $100 Gift Card Purchase at ShopRite.  If you use your enrolled AMEX credit card to buy $100 in gift cards at ShopRite, you will get a $20 statement credit and $20 in free groceries.  40% off is not too shabby, right?

The other good offer is for Hampton by Hilton: $35 off $175.  You might be able to purchase a gift card from Hampton for use at other Hilton hotels.
