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.

Vons/Safeway VGC & AGC $15 Off Coupon, Chime Card Offers for SWA/VA/Uber/Lyft/HotelTonight/Airbnb & BankAmeriDeals

Posted on by . 44 Replies

Good afternoon everyone.  If you can read and understand the title, you are an experienced travel hacker / MSer.  My friend Mike sent me a picture of a current promotion running at his local Von’s (Safeway) grocery store.  Purchase $150 or more in Visa or American Express Gift Cards and you will revive a coupon for $15 off your next $25 grocery purchase.  The promo is running from November 4 to 17 and the coupon must be redeemed within 7 days of your gift card purchase.  Assuming you buy gift cards on the last day of the promo (November 17), you have until November 24 (2 days before Thanksgiving) to redeem the coupon.  This coupon could be great if you have lots of Thanksgiving grocery store purchases to make.  I don’t know if you can redeem more than 1 coupon per transaction, but get creative.

Discover ApplePay 10% Bonus “One-Time Courtesy” Credits Not Posting on November Statements

Posted on by . 15 Replies

Good morning everyone.  A few days ago, I wrote Discover Honors ApplePay Gift Card Purchases as “One-Time Courtesy” through 9/17/2015.  In that post, I showed a few emails I received from Discover saying that they would provide a “one-time courtesy” for 2 different purchases made on September 17 and 18.  I was hoping to see the “one-time courtesy” credits post to my Discover It Credit Card statement in November (which closed on November 6), but that did not happen.

Discover It Honors Gift Card Purchases

I only received $8.69 as “ApplePay 10% Cash Back Bonus” on my November statement.  The rest of my cash back was earned “Everywhere Else.”

Good evening everyone.  After lots of planning and several emails between American Express and the Centurion Lounge managers, the day has finally arrived.  Here is my game plan for tomorrow’s 2 Centurion Lounge meetups:

SFO Centurion Lounge

I will arrive at SFO between 11:30am and 12pm.  If you get there before I do, please tell the front desk that you are here for the Travel with Grant meetup (I have a few tables reserved).  We can then grab lunch and drinks.  We can talk about miles, points, and travel for the next 2 hours.  The lounge manager will provide a behind-the-scenes tour of the lounge from 2:30-3pm.  I will then leave the lounge at 3pm and head to my Southwest Airlines flight to Las Vegas.   Continue reading →
