I still several posts left that&#8217;ll go live on Fridays or Saturdays starting next week. If you&#8217;d like to put a post together, please reach out! Also, if you reached out to me over the break and never heard back, I promise I wasn&#8217;t just ignoring you &#8211; I was ignoring everyone. I&#8217;ll be playing catchup this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now let&#8217;s dive in:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chase.com\/personal\/credit-cards\/aeroplan-pay-yourself-back\">Chase Aeroplan card&#8217;s 1.25 cents per point cash-out limit was set at 200,000 points annually for 2025<\/a>. Practically speaking there wasn&#8217;t a hard limit before this, but there was a soft limit of about seven figures after which you&#8217;d probably get a Chase shutdown.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/index.php\/2021\/11\/18\/unsung-hero-citi-shop-your-way-rewards-mastercard\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"3080\">Citi Shop Your Way card<\/a> sent offers for calendar year 2025 that mirror those sent at the beginning of 2024. The credits are for spend in gas, grocery, or restaurants and reset monthly. We&#8217;ve seen:<br><br>&#8211; $200 per month for $2,000+ spend<br>&#8211; $150 per month for $1,500+ spend<br>&#8211; $100 per month for $1,000+ spend<br><br>For those who can&#8217;t math, that&#8217;s $1,200-$2,400 annually in statement credits on a no-annual fee card, and those will stack other offers too. <a href=\"https:\/\/frinkiac.com\/video\/S06E16\/NFH9n-gVGVlkU6kxzcbbj-68aXc=.gif\">It&#8217;s pretty big I guess<\/a>. Also, apparently there&#8217;s another offer for travel and entertainment purchases monthly through 2025, with 5% back up to $80 monthly. Some have both offers. (Thanks to birt and tkpoints)<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usbank.com\/business-banking\/business-credit-cards\/business-leverage-rewards-credit-card.html\">US Bank Leverage Visa business card has a sign-up bonus of $750 after $7,500 spend<\/a> in 120 days and the annual fee <em>is<\/em> waived for the first year. This card is typically easy to get if you have an existing US Bank Relationship, and often even if you already have the card.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.staplesconnect.com\/weeklyad\">Staples in store has fee-free $200 Visa and Mastercard gift cards through Saturday<\/a>, limit nine per person per day, though in practice it&#8217;s actually limit nine per transaction.<br><br>These are Pathward gift cards.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"378\" src=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/im-back-baby-a8f868849d.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11002\" style=\"width:420px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/im-back-baby-a8f868849d.jpg 600w, https:\/\/milesearnandburn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/im-back-baby-a8f868849d-300x189.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:14px\">MEAB seen celebrating New Years Day 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy New Year, and thanks to everyone who put together a guest post over the break!
