  1. Kroger has a 4x fuel points promotion running through November 5 on third party gift cards<\/a> and fixed value Visa and Mastercard gift cards, excluding Amazon.

    Don’t stress that Amazon is excluded though,     you can get Amazon at 13-16% off with Pepper most days<\/a> provided that you think signs of their imminent demise<\/a> are greatly exaggerated. Yes, they lose money on every transaction but they make it up in volume.

  2. Alaska Airlines has an award sale through tomorrow<\/a>, and as usual it’s pretty good. I’m seeing:

    – Transcons at 9,000 points
    – Hawaii at 9,000 points
    – Alaska at 20,000 points
    – Mexico at 9,000 points

    These continue to be the best award sales that no-one talks about, especially since you’re still able to transfer Membership Rewards to Hawaiian, then Hawaiian to Alaska MileagePlan miles.

  3. It brings me absolutely zero pleasure to report that the American Express Business Platinum’s $200 semi-annual Dell credit<\/a> has been reported to continue through at the least the first half of 2025 according to multiple<\/a>, separately sourced data points<\/a>.

    I was very much looking forward to not worrying about Dell, so this is my October surprise I guess?

  4. Breeze Airways has 40% off of round-trip base fares with promo code GETCOMFY<\/em><\/a> booked by tomorrow night for travel from October 29 through May 13, 2025 with black several blackout dates around major holidays.

    In related news, Breeze has gone from being a     flaming money-pit in 2023<\/a> to a profitable airline<\/a> in a very short time, exactly the way that AA didn\u2019t.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Amtrak has a free companion promotion for its double lie-flat roomette tickets<\/a> booked through the end of the month with promo code C104<\/em> for travel from November through the end of January, 2025. (thanks to DDG<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Happy Wednesday!<\/p>\n\n\n
