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.).
Good morning everyone, I just updated my Chase Freedom vs. Discover It vs. Citi Dividend 5% Cash Back Card Comparison page and thought I would share my Q3 strategy. If you want to learn more about each card and activate the quarterly cash back bonuses, click the above link.
For Q3, Chase is offering 5% cash back at gas stations and Kohl’s. Some gas stations (and convenient stores classified as gas stations) sell VGCs and PayPal My Cash Cards. Each gas station has different rules, so you may have to try a few different places before you will be able to find one that accepts credit cards. Kohl’s also sells a variety of gift cards and VGCs. Most Kohl’s stores carry $50 and $100 VGCs, but some carry $200 VGCs. You may need to check out a few stores to find the best GCs.
Good afternoon everyone. I recently redeemed my Hilton Free Weekend Night Certificate which I got for spending $10,000 on my Citi Hilton HHonors Reserve Credit Card within a card member year. This post will show you how to search for available award space and redeem your Free Weekend Night Certificate.
You should receive a similar email from Hilton roughly 4-6 weeks after your annual fee is billed to your Citi Hilton HHonors Reserve Credit Card (assuming you met the $10,000 spending requirement). The Free Weekend Night Certificate looks like this and is linked to your Hilton HHonors number. If you accidentally delete or misplace this email, you should be able to call Hilton and they will be able to see your Free Weekend Night Certificate. You must book travel and complete your stay between the issue date and expiration date. There is no way to extend the Free Weekend Night Certificate even by 1 day.
Good morning everyone, yesterday I wrote New AMEX Offers: Home Depot, Whole Foods, Fairway Market, and Hilton Garden Inn. In that post, I recommended buying gift cards at various merchants to complete the AMEX Offers. I knew Home Depot sold third party gift cards, but I wasn’t sure about the others. Last night after work, I went hunting for gift cards at Home Depot. I needed to buy $75 worth of gift cards to trigger the $15 statement credit ($15 back represents a 20% discount on the face value of the gift card).

Good morning everyone, there are a few new AMEX Offers worth mentioning today: Home Depot, Whole Foods, Fairway Market, and Hilton Garden Inn. For the Home Depot offer, spend $75 or more in-store or online and receive a $15 statement credit.
