- US Bank has opened a waitlist for its annoyingly named Smartly Visa credit card. The card’s earning structure is 2%-4% cash back depending on your balance in an equally annoyingly named Smartly Savings account; you’ll need to keep $100,000 parked there for 4% earning.
The annual fee is currently unspecified. (Thanks to LiftBroski) - Southwest has a fast-track promotion to earn a two month Companion Pass. The requirements are:
– Book two one-ways or one round-trip by tomorrow night
– Fly both legs by November 20
–Both legs must be paid flights, and existing bookings don’t count
The promotional companion pass is valid between January 6 and March 6, 2025. - Rakuten in-store offers has 1% back or 1 Membership Reward per dollar spent at Giant Food stores. As usual, once you use the promotion you’ve got to re-add it to your account after an hour, though any purchases in the first hour after use will continue to track.
Apropos of nothing: Giant Food stores sell gift cards. - AirFrance and KLM’s FlyingBlue program released its September promotional rewards. North American cities include Phoenix, Las Vegas, Washington DC, New York, Montreal, and Ottawa.
- Breeze Airways has 50% off of base fares with promo code BIGDEAL for travel between September 18 and May 13, 2025 booked by tomorrow night.
What they’re not telling you is that the big deal isn’t as big as you’d think because they blocked out lots of days from the promotion, so don’t listen when they say “I’m kind of a big deal”. In fact, that’s just good general life advice. (Thanks to FM)
Happy Wednesday!
