After the meetup, I am going to the 49ers preseason game at 4pm versus the Houston Texans at Levi’s Stadium – a short Lyft ride away.  Tickets are currently selling for $15-$20 on Seatgeek (earn 3% cash back on Ebates).  There is no need to RSVP to the event, but I look forward to talking with other miles and points collectors.  If you have any questions, please leave a comment below.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Good morning everyone, happy Thursday!  Hopefully by now, you are sitting on a huge pile of Discover It Cash Back from their Cash Back Match promotion.  I just received the following email from Discover telling me to redeem my cash back for gift cards and egift cards.  If you have the Discover mobile app, you can sign in, view rewards, and redeem your cash back balance for gift cards, egift cards, statement credits, or donate to charity.  In this post, I will show you some good redemption options (in my opinion) from Discover in the form of gift cards and egift cards.

Good morning everyone, I hope you all had a great weekend.  I was in Seattle this past weekend and am working on some *great* blog posts (stay tuned).  It’s been awhile since my last South Bay meetup and I want to go back down to Mountain View.  I am setting up a meetup at the In-N-Out in Mountain View that is at Grant Park Plaza (named after me, of course).  There is another In-N-Out in Mountain View, don’t go to that one by mistake.

Using Points.com to Exchange JetBlue TrueBlue Miles into Amtrak Guest Reward Points

Good morning everyone.  In today’s super long/boring post, I will show you how to use Points.com to exchange miles/points from one loyalty program into another loyalty program.  Before I go on, let me explain that Points.com is somewhat similar to Award Wallet because you can add loyalty programs to your account and track their balances.  You may be familiar with Points.com if you have ever looked into buying airline miles or hotel points, since Points.com is the broker for most loyalty programs.  I am not going to talk about buying miles/points today.  Instead, I am going to talk about exchanging miles/points from one loyalty program into another loyalty program.  First things first, you need a free Points.com account and you will need to add your loaylty programs.  Here are a few of my accounts that are currently tracked by Points.com.
