Evidently June 14, 2023 was officially declared promotion Wednesday by a secret cabal of companies in the League of Manufactured Spend and Travel Hacker Enablement, and my inbox is overflowing with promotions mixed with 4 parts lame to 1 part good. Here’s the good:
- Giftcards.com made last week’s Visa e-gift card sale even better, jumping from 5% back to 10% back on $100 gift cards with promo code SUMMER23 or YAYSUMMER. The Capital One Shopping mobile app has 4% cash-back which I believe is the current best offer.
Limits are $600 per order, $2,000 per rolling 48 hours per email address. I can’t get the promo code to work when logged in, but it works fine with guest checkout at $600 or less. - Southwest has 40% off of travel booked by tomorrow night for travel between August 15 and December 14 with promo code 40OFF for flights other than the two weeks around Thanksgiving.
If you have any existing bookings between those dates, double check pricing and refund or rebook as necessary. - Do this now if you hold a Chase Southwest credit card: Register for 10 points per dollar on up to $500 in spend at southwest.com.
visit a grocery store by Sunday, buy a single $500 gift card, liquidate it, and move on with life.(Thanks to Brian M) - Alaska Airlines has a fare sale for travel to and from Hawaii booked by tomorrow night for flights between August 14 and October 31. This one’s got more teeth than the normal run-of-the-mill airline sale.
Happy Wednesday!
