Upcoming Meetups and Travel Conferences (July 23 through December 6)

Good morning everyone, happy Amazon Prime Day!  I couldn’t sleep last night, so I bought a new AmazonBasics 12-Sheet High-Security Micro-Cut Shredder at 3am and then I read Doctor of Credit’s post about Amazon eGift Cards on sale and bought those too.  If you do purchase anything today, please consider using my Amazon affiliate link.  Thank you, thank you, thank you!  Happy 20th birthday Amazon!

Anyway, with the recent news about FTU Advanced Newport Beach, I thought I would list all the meetups and travel conferences that I will be attending throughout the end of the year.  These are in chronological order and there may/may not be tickets left to purchase.

Let’s start with a local meetup in San Francisco.  This group is relative new, but the turnout of 30-50 people is impressive.  They have formal presentations once a month and then breakout discussions afterwards.  The organizers of this meetup are very passionate and knowledgeable.

  • Where: San Francisco, California (Meetup page)
  • When: Thursday, July 23 @ 7PM

New AMEX Offers: $100 Off $600 AMEX Travel, $20 Off $100 1-800-PetMeds.com, and Others

Good morning everyone, it is a new week and that comes with a new batch of AMEX Offers.  The offer that most caught my attention was the following offer from AMEX Travel.  You must book online here and spend $600 or more on hotel reservations to receive the $100 statement credit.  I believe this has to be 1 reservation, not a few smaller reservations booked at the same time.  I also have AMEX Offers for 1-800-PetMeds.com, Hof’s Hut, Epic Steak, Boden USA, and Showcase Photo and Video.

New AMEX Offers: $75 Off $350 @ Hilton Hotels & Resorts and Other Random Offers Part 2

Good morning everyone, yesterday I wrote New AMEX Offers: $20 Off $100 @ Macy’s and Other Random Offers.  This morning, I checked my AMEX account and found a new AMEX Offer for Hilton Hotels & Resorts: get a $75 statement credit when you spend $350 or more.  Looking at the small print, it looks like only Hilton Hotels and Hilton Resorts qualify for this offer, all the other Hilton chains are excluded (Waldorf Astoria, Conrad, DoubleTree, Embassy Suites, etc.).

New AMEX Offers: $20 Off $100 @ Macy’s and Other Random Offers

Good morning everyone.  I don’t know about you, but I love AMEX Offers.  I love them so much that I check my AMEX account probably 1-2 times per day for new offers.  The last few weeks have been pretty slow in terms of great MS AMEX Offers, but hopefully that changes soon.  I tried to find a few AMEX Offers worth sharing, but this Macy’s offer was the best I could find.  I only saw this offer on 1 out of 5 AMEX cards, so it might be highly targeted.  Get a $20 statement credit when you spend $100 or more at Macy’s or macys.com.
