EDITOR’S NOTE: The feedback I’ve gotten for guest post Saturday has been resoundingly positive. I’ve got a few posts left to publish, but I’m running low. If you’re interested in a guest post, please reach out!
It’s a good news and bad news situation today. Ordered in terms of goodness:
- American Express has a great new referral offer for +10x at restaurants on many charge and credit cards for up to $25,000 spend in restaurants for three months for the referrer. The referral must be sent by May 22.
Pro tip: Referrals usually stick around for 30 days, so squirrel one away on May 22 and you can double dip this one. - Staples has fee-free $200 Mastercard gift cards starting Sunday and running through the following Saturday. There’s a stated limit of eight, which generally isn’t actually enforced in many locations.
These are Pathward gift cards, so have a liquidation plan in place. - Hyatt Destination residences have moved from the regular World of Hyatt program to the Homes and Hideaways platform, which really means that these properties now have a low 1.2 cents per point fixed redemption value.
It already happened, and there’s no way to lock in old rates. Hyatt went #bonvoy in rare form.
Have a nice weekend!
