Good morning everyone, here are a few new AMEX Offers that I spotted in my American Express account. The first one is for Amazon, but it is not the typical AMEX Offer. You will earn 2x AMEX Membership Rewards Points from 3/22 to 7/31.
Here are the other AMEX Offers:
Good afternoon everyone. American Express added a few new AMEX Offers over the last few days. The offers include Staples, TurboTax, Norwegian Cruise Line, Carnival Cruise Line, and Porsche Design. Receive a 5% statement credit at Staples or staples.com after spending $100 or more. This is not any better than the Chase Ink Bold/Plus Business Credit Cards, but I suppose if you have already maxed out the $50,000 yearly cap on your Chase Ink card, you may be interested in this AMEX Offer.
After you enroll all your eligible AMEX cards, you will receive a bunch of enrollment emails from American Express explaining how to shop at Staples and earn cash back via a statement credit. Too much hand holding from Staples and AMEX for me.
Good morning everyone. Since Sunday’s are usually pretty slow around the miles and points blogosphere, I decided to create a fun challenge for you. I want you to reword one of my recent blog post titles and make it click-bait worthy. Let me be clear, I hate click-bait titles as much as the next person, but if you can come up with a funny, clever title from one of these posts, you will be rewarded. I will select 1 winner for a $10 Amazon eGift Card by Monday night (around 10pm PT on February 29, 2016).
Good morning everyone, happy Friday! This is a friendly reminder that my OC Meetup is tomorrow afternoon (Saturday 2/27). I’m looking forward to seeing a few familiar faces and meeting some new readers in Orange County. No need to RSVP, just show up if you are interested.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment below. Have a great weekend everyone!
Good morning everyone. My friend Stefan @ Rapid Travel Chai asked me on Twitter about the US Bank FlexPerks $25 airline allowance and the subsequent reimbursement process. Since I could not find a recent post detailing the reimbursement process, I decided to write this post. In the past, I wrote How to Book Airfare with US Bank FlexPerks, which shows the entire searching and booking process. One of the cool perks of booking airfare with US Bank FlexPoints is that you get a $25 airline allowance for each “award” booking. On the US Bank FlexPerks Credit Card landing page, it says that baggage fees, in-flight food and drinks are eligible for reimbursement, but when you look at the terms and condition, there are no specific items included or excluded from the benefit.
PSA: FlexPoints are the currency issued by the FlexPerks program. Don’t get confused!
