Good evening everyone, this is just a short post before I go to bed. I currently have a love-hate relationship with Club Carlson. At first I loved them, but now it seems like Club Carlson hates me. Let me explain…
As you all know, the Last Night Free perk ended June 1 and everyone redeemed as many Club Carlson points as humanly possible (I even borrowed leftover points from friends so I could scrap together enough Club Carlson points to squeeze out one last reservation). With low Club Carlson point balances and no more spending on their personal and business Club Carlson credit cards, I was expecting a few targeted spending offers from US Bank / Club Carlson. Well, today is the day I got my first targeted spending offer and it is… TERRIBLE! Let me explain…
- I can earn 1 bonus Club Carlson point for every dollar I spend (Club Carlson points are worth around 0.2 CPP, so it is definitely not worth the effort)
- I am limited to a grand total of 2,000 bonus Club Carlson points (what can I even get for 2,000 Club Carlson points, a 99 cent iTunes song?)
- I only start earning bonus points after I spend $300 on the credit card (so to earn the full 2,000 bonus Club Carlson points, I have to spend $2,300; that’s never going to happen)
Any takers? I didn’t think so…
