But this time we\u2019re focusing on deal limits. Specifically, deals often have language like:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Limit $200 per month<\/li>\n<li>Limit one per customer<\/li>\n<li>Limit $50 per transaction<\/li>\n<li>Only valid once per month<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Never take those limits at face value. For over a month there\u2019s been a profitable play with language similar to the above and the stated limits are actually stated suggestions. Keep in mind that experimenting could net you a few thousand dollars and just take a couple of minutes of your time. Remember ABP: <em>Always Be Probing<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Am I being intentionally obtuse? Unfortunately yes and I apologize for not sharing more on this one right now, but we\u2019ll give a recap at some point in the future to help find similar deals.
