  1. Chase Ultimate Rewards has a 20% transfer bonus to Air Canada Aeroplan<\/a> through September 30, and Aeroplan Visa card holders can stack their regular 10% bonus for a total of 30%.

    Unless you have a specific award redemption in mind, 1 Hyatt point is probably worth more than 1.2 or 1.3 Aeroplan miles so speculate at your own risk.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Kroger stores have a promotion for 4x on One4All and Choice gift cards<\/a> through August 25.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. The half-life of US Bank transfer partners seems to be a day<\/a>; now there are only two left:

    – Ethiopian Sheba Miles
    – Accor ALL

    I guess by Friday we’ll have a half of a transfer partner, otherwise known as Frontier?
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Capital One Shopping has targeted promotions on the home page<\/a> for:

    – $100 off of $100+ in hotels booked through Capital One Travel
    – $100 off of $100+ in rental cars booked through Capital One Travel

    Of course $100 off really means $100 worth of gift cards that are worth an average(ish) of $90 on the resale market. If you don’t have a Capital One Shopping account, use a friend’s referral and you’ll be in, even if you’re banned from Capital One Bank.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Kroger stores also have a new promotion for 4x on all gift cards<\/a> excluding Amazon from tomorrow through Sunday. Notably, flexible fuel cards are no longer excluded from 4x.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Meijer mPerks has 10,000 points on $100+ in Visa gift cards<\/a> through Tuesday, limit one per mPerks account.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. American Express added about 350+ hotels to its Fine Hotels and Resorts collection and its The Hotel Collection<\/a>. There’s good new coverage in most of Europe, Asia, and North America.
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. The Citi ThankYou Mastercard is targeting more people for its 8% back on $1,250+<\/a> in travel and entertainment, up to $125, once a month for August, September, and October. You might find it on the ThankYou dashboard offers section, Chrome seems to work best for that. (Thanks to Hippo 387)
    <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. American Express offers has a card linked offer for $80 off of $400 at Alaska Airlines or Hawaiian Airlines<\/a> through October 23. Alaska refund to wallet is a safe and easy way to game this one.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Happy Thursday friends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
