  1. Do this now: Register for your 5x bonus on rotating category cards:

    – Chase Freedom and Freedom Flex<\/a>: Amazon (and “select streaming services” I guess)
    –     Discover IT<\/a>: Grocery stores and wholesale clubs, but Walmart and Target don’t count
    <\/a>–     Citi Dividend<\/a>: Who knows, because it’s giving an error right now #citigonnaciti
    –     US Bank Cash+<\/a>: I choose utilities and electronics, cause #meabgonnameab

    Given Pepper’s explosion all over the gift card market, you should be getting a much bigger discount than 5x on Amazon purchases, either by using Pepper if you dare, or by buying Amazon gift cards from Pepper users at 12%+ off. I guess if you’re masochist there’s Raise\/GCX at 7.60% off too.

  2. The Citi Shop Your Way Rewards card has released new mid-month offers<\/a> including (I believe) a new all time high spending bonus for online spend through April 14:

    – 325,000 Shop Your Way Rewards after $1,000+ online spend
    – 250,000 Shop Your Way Rewards after $750+ in online spend
    – $100 statement credit after $1,000+ in online spend
    – $75 statement credit after $750+ in online spend

  3. Meijer MPerks has a digital coupon for $10 off of $150+ in Visa gift cards through Saturday<\/a>. This coupon doesn’t specify a limit, which probably means you can re-clip the same coupon after checkout repeatedly.

    This is the kind of low profile deal that can be so valuable that it’s worth it to travel from out of state if you don’t live by a Meijer, provided you have a good liquidation channel for Visas.

  4. Office Depot \/ OfficeMax stores have $15 off of $300+ in Visa gift cards through Saturday<\/a>, and this one is confirmed working unlike last week’s Mastercard version, which didn’t work even though stores had the flyer, then worked after stores took down the flyer, then maybe worked, but only if you were lucky. For best results, always:

    – Buy in even multiples of $300
    – The “Everywhere” cards sometimes have lower fees and definitely work differently for liquidation

    These are Pathward gift cards.

  5. Hilton has a targeted bonus for 3,000 bonus points after your next stay<\/a> within four months of registration, but no later than the end of the year. (Thanks to Beneficial-Board6959<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
