(Hat Tip to Noah @ Money Metagame for the idea)

Good morning from beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona. I am staying at the $80/night Hyatt Place in Scottsdale after an exciting day at the Phoenician Hotel and Resort for the First2Board PHX Sessions. This morning, I was reading Money Metagame’s article and it got me thinking… how much money have I made/saved using AMEX Offers on 1 AMEX card over the last 12 months? If you log into your American Express account, click AMEX Offers For You, and click My Savings, you will see all the enrolled offers that you participated in. I think this list may exclude AMEX Sync Offers, so take that into consideration if you don’t see all your offers. Here is what I bought and the profit ($/%) per AMEX Offer:

Office Depot: $50 Amazon Gift Card = $10 savings (20% free)
Whole Foods: $75 loaded to my Clipper Card = $10 savings (13.3% free)
Home Depot: $75 Panera Bread Gift Card = $15 savings (20% free)
SamsClub.com: $20 Sams Club Gift Card = $20 savings (100% free)
Smart & Final: 3 x $50 Southwest Airlines Gift Card = $75 savings (50% free)

Many New AMEX Offers (Legal Zoom, Jelly Belly, Extra Space Store, etc.) and Paper Deals from Staples

Good afternoon everyone, I hope your Monday is off to a great start. I wanted to quickly mention the Sacramento Meetup from last Saturday. After a short hour drive from Walnut Creek to Sacramento, I saw some familiar faces and met some new people. Even though the group was only 7-8 people, everyone in attendance was very knowledgeable about MS and award redemptions. We chatted for almost 3.5 hours and had a great lunch at In-N-Out. I personally think these smaller meetups are better than larger FTU travel conferences since most deals are region/city specific and these smaller meetups give you a chance to meet other locals and bounce ideas off each other.

With that said, here are a bunch of AMEX offers (some from last week that I forgot to post) and a few new one from this morning. There are offers for Legal Zoom, Jelly Belly, Extra Space Storage, Chewy, Diesel, Babett, Maison Birks, Red Door Spas, and Seasons 52.
