Monday: ThankYou 1.74 Cents Per Point, Grocery Coupons, More Chase News to Avoid Hyatt Articles

  1. Citi ThankYou has a 50% transfer bonus to Accor ALL through July 18, making the transfer ratio 1,000:750. At current exchange rates, that makes each ThankYou point worth 1.74 cents for Accor stays.

    For the used-to-be-Hyatt-or-bust crowd, here’s a quick primer on Accor.
  2. The Chase IHG Premier card has a new sign-up bonus for five free-night certificates, each for up to 40,000 points per night, after $4,000 spend in three months. The $99 annual fee is not waived the first year.

    This has been as high as 60,000 points per night, and 40,000 IHG points only goes so far. (Thanks to DoC)
  3. Office Depot / OfficeMax stores have $15 off of $300+ in Visa gift cards through Saturday. For best results:

    – Buy the lower fee “Everywhere” cards if you can liquidate them
    – Buy in even multiples

    These are Pathward / BlackHawk Network gift cards.
  4. Smart & Final stores have a repeatable $15 grocery coupon with $100+ in One4All gift cards through Tuesday, June 23, the coupon is good through June 30 and you can do these back-to-back.

    This one is probably a bigger deal than you’d initially think.
  5. Albertsons, Ralphs, Safeway, and other Just4U stores have a promotion for $15 off of groceries with $75+ in Home Depot and DoorDash gift cards (and other lower value gift cards) through June 25.

    Why is the resale value on Doo Dash high these days? Makes you think.

Happy Monday!

On the other hand, maybe don’t think. I’m getting mixed messages.
