1. The Marriott Bonvoy Business American Express card has an increased sign-up bonus of 150,000 points and a $125 statement credit after $8,000 spend in three months.

    The $125 should cover resort fees on two nights at the Knoxville Alcoa Airport Marriott Courtyard if nothing else.
  2. United and JetBlue now have basic reciprocal elite benefit sharing, which is especially useful if you’re banned by either Chase or Barclays but still want free checked bags, free access to better seats, and early boarding.
  3. The American Airlines eShopping portal has a promotion for 2,000 bonus miles with $800+ spend through May 21.
  4. Chase Sapphire and Freedom cards earn an additional 10x on purchases with Paze checkout on up to $1,500 spend monthly through the end of the year. The list of Paze merchants is relatively small, but does include heavy hitters like United Airlines and Newegg.
  5. SAS EuroBonus has 25% off of both economy and business class award redemption costs for travel booked by Sunday and flown by September 30.
  6. Kroger has a coupon for a $10 Kroger eGift card with the purchase of two $100 Visas or Mastercards.

    Q: Isn’t $10 below the line here for cards with $6+ activation fees?
    A: Erm, absolutely normally. But how many Kroger accounts do you have and how much are you already there?

Have a nice weekend, and don’t mourn the floosies too much, they’ve been on life support for a long time!

The Paze effect.
