1. Stop & ShopGiant, Giant Food, and Martins have 2x point earning on Mastercards through Thursday, limit $2,000 per loyalty account (or $1,500 for Giant Food because sibling spite).

    These are Pathward / BlackHawk Network gift cards.
  2. New no-lifetime language (NLL) Hilton card offers are available and they’ve been shared by DDG (note that DDG says that these are hacked links, but at least the Aspire and Honors links are generally available at hotels on Hilton WiFi):

    Aspire: 175,000 points after $6,000 spend in six months
    Surpass: 155,000 points after $3,000 spend in six months
    Honors: 100,000 points after $2,000 spend in six months

    These are good offers, and they’re great offers for NLL cards, but Hilton’s recent devaluations are significant so make sure you know the award prices for a booking you have in mind rather than blindly signing up for one of these bonuses.
  3. Ether.fi is cluster bombing travel influencers promoting their crypto backed 3% everywhere debit card and crypto account. It’s cool on the surface and by all means please try and work it into your churning portfolio, but you should know:

    – They’ll turn off your cash back earning really quickly if you have a big transaction or two
    They’re pretty sure “cashback farmers” are constantly attacking their company
    – Their site is rather buggy, and their support doesn’t respond to tickets
    – They advertise debit card features that haven’t been implemented
    – You’re not actually earning cash back, you’re earning SCR which is down 75% for the year

    So, good luck I guess?
  4. Paid flights on Qatar have a 5% discount code and 3,000 bonus miles in most fare buckets (or 10% and 6,000 bonus miles in some expensive fare buckets) using promo code QRPCHILTON for travel booked by October 31 and flown by March 31, 2026.

    Why? Because somehow a Qatar+Hilton partnership gives you bonus earnings on Qatar and exactly nothing with Hilton except their name in a promo code. #marketingfail
  5. Stater Bros stores have $10 off of groceries with $50+ in Visa or Mastercard gift cards through October 21.

    These are Pathward / BlackHawk Network gif cards.
  6. Meijer stores have 10,000 bonus MPerks points with $100+ in One4All gift cards through Tuesday, limit 10,000 points per MPerks account.

    Meijer sells both Pathward / BlackHawk Network and Sunrise gift cards.

Have a nice weekend!
