Amex has stepped up many of their sign-up bonuses recently, and I wanted to organize them all in one place for you. These are probably all limited time offers, so don’t delay too long if you are interested in one of these deals. Starwood Preferred Guest 30,000 SPG Points after spending $5000 in the first six months. The $65 annual fee is waived the first year. This is a great… Read the Rest.
There are literally almost too many deals to keep up with right now, and that is a fantastic problem to have! Yesterday I received an email from United MileagePlus telling me that I would receive 1,500 United miles if I joined Gilt.com/united to register and made a purchase. You have to be a new Gilt.com member (be creative if you must) in order to qualify for the bonus miles. I… Read the Rest.
A few days ago I saw some tweets about the American Express Gift Chain. I was crazy busy at that moment, so I didn’t dig too deeply into the promo at the time. However, yesterday I got a minute to do some research and I found out the American Express Gift Chain = awesome! I guess this promo was just overshadowed for a while by Small Business Saturday, but it… Read the Rest.
We all know I love points, and if you are reading this I am guessing you love collecting and using points, too! While the majority of what I write about here is related to getting or spending points for your family, I also like to turn the focus a bit more outward at times and help support some other endeavors as well. Today I am honored to get the chance… Read the Rest.
As some of you probably already know, another BoardingArea blogger, Jason from MilesQuest, was in a serious auto accident a few weeks ago. He was supposed to meet up with us at BlogWorld in LA, but ended up in the hospital instead due to his injuries. With the help of his wife he has posted a little since his accident, but his injuries aren’t allowing him to post as frequently… Read the Rest.
About a week ago I did a post about how the Chase Ink Bold Business card offer updates today (11/28). I didn’t know if updating meant for the better, or for the worse. I also didn’t know if the sign-up bonus was changing or not. All I knew was that I was told that the links I had for the card would be “deactivated” today and that the offer would… Read the Rest.
Overall I have always found Cyber Monday sales to be a bit of a let down. Sure there are some good sales here and there, but overall the Thanksgiving/Black Friday sales are far superior – at least for the things I usually want! That being said, there are many airlines and hotels that are having Black Friday sales today, and Deals We Like is doing a great job summarizing the… Read the Rest.
Wow, what an amazing week of family, shopping, and points. Most importantly, we had so much fun with Little C since she was off from preschool for nine straight days. That is probably the longest stretch we have gotten to be with her since I went back to work when she was three months old. I’m going to miss her tomorrow when I have to go back to work and… Read the Rest.
Today when I went to my parents’ house they had a letter they had just received from American Express. I have taught them to stop throwing away credit card related items! The letter states that my mom can refer people for the American Express Premier Rewards Gold card and the referred person will receive 25,000 Membership Rewards points for spending $2000 on the card within the first three months. The… Read the Rest.
Black Friday has resulted in some serious point hauls for my family. While I am ecstatic about the number of points we earned for purchases we were going to make anyway, we certainly did our fair share of spending to stimulate the economy today. So, I am very happy to remind you all that tomorrow is “American Express Free Money Day” – otherwise known as Small Business Saturday. Admittedly,… Read the Rest.
