Random News: 3 New AMEX Offers, Staples Gift Card and Paper Deals, and Office Depot AMEX Gift Card Deal

Good evening from Washington, DC.  I had a great time at FTU Advanced this weekend at the Hyatt Regency Crystal City hotel.  I appreciate meeting readers and other miles and points addicts over the past few days.  I will be at TravelCon on February 28 (maybe speaking) and attending FTU Advanced in San Diego on March 6-8.  I’m not sure tickets are still for sale, but if you bought one, I look forward to seeing you there.

Anyway, there are 3 new AMEX Offers that showed up in my account.

For completeness, here are the paper deals that are going on this week, through Saturday (December 6).  I’m sure next week will have the same paper deals, so there is no rush to buy paper this week.

Chase recently updated their smartphone app for iOS and Android with the ability to transfer Chase Ultimate Reward Points to their travel partners.  I will show you how I recently transferred Chase Ultimate Reward Points to Southwest Airlines on my iPhone.  The process should work the same on an Android phone.  You can follow these steps to transfer Chase Ultimate Reward Points to any of their travel partners.  Without further ado, download the Chase app to your smartphone and log into your Chase account.

AMEX Offer Office Depot / Office Max Update, Free $5 Amazon Gift Card, and other Chime Card Offers

AMEX Offer Office Depot / Office Max Update, Free $5 Amazon Gift Card, and other Chime Card Offers

Good evening everyone, earlier this morning I posted the AMEX Offer for Office Depot / Office Max (link) where you would receive a $10 statement credit for a purchase of $50 or more on your enrolled AMEX card.

Shortly after creating that post, I drove over to my local Office Depot store and bought 2 $200 Visa Gift Cards (you can only buy the fixed value cards at Office Depot, not the variable load cards that say $20-$500 in the corner).  I kindly asked the cashier if she should split the payment into multiple $50 payments and she agreed.  Splitting the payment was really easy, all you do is swipe your AMEX card, tell the cashier how much you want to charge (they will need to change the amount from the default full amount to $50), sign your name on the credit card reader, and repeat until all your AMEX cards have been used.  Immediately after every purchase, my iPhone received the AMEX alert and email confirmation.

Good morning everyone, I had a great time at the OC Meetup yesterday afternoon.  It was a great mix of new and old friends/readers.  I was even given a giant birthday cupcake by my friend from Long Beach.  My birthday isn’t until November 27 (Thanksgiving Day), but I gladly appreciate early birthday presents.  I will probably have the next OC Meetup on Saturday, December 13, time and place TBD.  I will post more info closer to the date.

Other than my birthday being less than 2 weeks away, the other major news item that was announced today was enrollment for Small Business Saturday (November 29) has begun.  If you log into your AMEX online account, you should see the Small Business Saturday offer at the very top of your offer list.  You can add the offer to all of your AMEX credit and charge cards.

If you have never participated in Small Business Saturday, the concept is simple.  For every $10 or more purchase you make at a qualifying small business on Small Business Saturday (November 29), you will receive a $10 statement credit.  You can receive up to 3 $10 statement credits per registered AMEX card.  From my understanding, you can use the same AMEX card to make all 3 purchases at the same small business.  See the link below to see which merchants qualify for Small Business Saturday.
