- The Citi Shop Your Way Rewards card sent out beginning of month offers via snail mail and email over the last week. Each offer is valid once a month for September, October, and November, and some have bonuses for getting all three months’ bonuses:
– $25 monthly credit on $750 monthly, and a bonus $50 for hitting all three
– $40 monthly credit with five $75+ transactions monthly
– $50 monthly credit on $1,500 monthly, and a bonus $50 for hitting all three
Yes, these stack with both of last month’s offers. No, this card isn’t available for new applications any more, sorry. (Thanks to birt, Jared, and K) - American Express has new online for adding new employee cards, limit five per primary card:

Before you ask: No, you don’t have to choose the employee cards with annual fees with these offers. - Alaska
MileagePlanAtmos is changing its relationship with both Singapore Airlines and LATAM on October 1:
– Reduced earning on tickets booked in September (LATAM) or September – December (Singapore) for travel through December 31 through any channel
– No new Singapore award bookings starting on October 1, ditto with LATAM
– No points earning unless tickets are booked directly via Alaska starting in 2026 for Singapore
– No points earning regardless of booking channel on LATAM starting October 1
This was bound to happen when Alaska joined oneworld, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t sting. - Office Depot / OfficeMax stores have $15 back on $300 or more in Visa gift cards through Saturday. What sorcerers could have predicted this after they had the same deal on Mastercards last week? All of them, I think. Anyway:
– Even multipliers of $300 give bigger discounts
– Go for the lower-fee “Everywhere” cards if you can liquidate them
These are Pathward / BlackHawkNetwork gift cards.

Gift card sale prediction sorcerers in action.
