Good morning everyone, I had a fun-filled evening last night. After work, I drove to my local Staples and Smart & Final store (which happen to be next to each other) and did a bit of shopping. My first stop was at Staples to buy some gift cards…

Good morning everyone! With the impending demise of the “old” US Bank Club Carlson Credit Card, I thought it would be a good idea to compare the “new” Club Carlson free night certificate with other free night certificates from other co-brand hotel credit cards. Here is the table comparing Intercontinental, Hyatt, Marriott, Club Carlson, Hilton, Fairmont, and Starwood:
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.

Good evening everyone, there is no doubt in my mind that I love Chase and Chase loves me. I have quite a few credit cards (both personal and business) with Chase. I always want the latest card design (remember the new Citi American Airlines Executive Credit Card? or the new Chase Ink Bold/Plus Business Cards?) and am a big fan of EMV (aka Chip and Signature) credit cards. After reading Will’s recent post about the Chase United Airlines MileagePlus Credit Card adding EMV chips to their card, I decided to call Chase.
Good morning everyone, I just wanted to share some updates regarding my Chase Ritz-Carlton Credit Card. A few days ago, I received my 140,000 point sign up bonus after spending $3,000 in the first 3 months. I also received a few statement credits / courtesy adjustments toward my $300 annual travel credit.
