Chime Card Cash Back Offers Return: $3 Cash Back from Amazon (7/15 Only)

(Hat Tip to lochquel for alerting me to the change)

Good evening everyone, at the end of March, I wrote Chime Card Evolves and Removes Offers for Certain Users.  In that post, it looked pretty obvious that Chime removed all offers from users who only used the card for Chime cash back offers.  I was 100% guilty of that and understood where Chime was coming from.  Over the last few months, I totally forgot about Chime and never thought to log into my Chime account.  Thankfully, a reader alerted me to the change that Chime cash back offers are now showing up again.  The best offer is $3 for free from Amazon.  The offer is set to expire today (July 15).

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.).
