Reactivate Expired Marriott Free Night Certificates

Posted on by . 28 Replies

Good afternoon everyone, if you are like me, you probably have a few hotel credit cards which provide free night certificates each year.  Juggling and remembering to use the free night certificates can be challenging at times and you may forget to use one of your free nights before the expiration date arrives.  This is the story of how my expired Marriott free night certificate was reactivated.  For the record, I really dislike Marriott’s free night certificates because they only have a 6 month life span, compared to all the other annual free night certificates.  I wrote about using the Marriott free night certificates here.

Ebags AMEX Offer and Updates Regarding US Bank FlexPerks, Citi American Airlines, and Chase Southwest Airlines Retention Offers

Posted on by . 4 Replies

Good evening everyone, I had an interesting day today.  I took my cousin’s Australia Shepherd puppy for a walk this morning and grabbed the wrong set of keys.  I was locked out of the apartment for a few hours and had a very interest afternoon with stops at the Apple Store (buying a Mophie portable battery), Panera Bread (their table-side ordering is amazing, btw), and Petco (lunch for the pup).  Now that I am safely/warmly back inside, here are some random news to share.

There is an AMEX Offer for Ebags.com where you can get a $15 statement credit after making a purchase of $75 or more.  I noticed that Ebags sells gift cards online, but there is nothing on Gift Card Granny regarding buy back rate.
