PayPal Key was supposed to die on Tuesday or Wednesday of last week, but Saturday marks the actual date of death according to the county coroner\u2019s office. I hope you got an extra $25,000 in daily spend after the publicized last use date and if not, take a note for the future that deals don\u2019t always die when they\u2019re supposed to die.<\/p>\n

With that out of the way:<\/p>\n

  1. As a followup to last week\u2019s American Express Employee Card Offers post<\/a>, I\u2019ve now received three separate reports of second batches of 5 employee cards posting a bonus after the bonuses posted for the first batch of 5.\n

    The obvious takeaway is to call and add 5 more employee cards every day until you\u2019ve got the limit of 99 total employee cards, assuming you\u2019ve got the spend capacity to support it. (Thanks to Jay, Rob, and GlockLT4)<\/li>\n

  2. Office Depot\/OfficeMax (can we please drop one of those two names yet?) has $25 back in rewards for spending $100 on Happy or Giving Good<\/a> gift cards through May 7. Don\u2019t forget to link your credit card to Dosh for an extra 2% back, don\u2019t forget to create multiple rewards accounts and multiple Dosh accounts to scale as desired, and do note that rewards typically take a few days to show up in your account.\n

    Frankly this is a much better deal for me than the typical Visa \/ Mastercard fee free deals t because you can buy a Happy or Giving Good card that converts to Home Depot and sell for 90-92% of face value, putting you ahead by a nice percentage while still getting an office supply store spend bonus and without dealing with a pesky money order. (Thanks to GC Galore<\/a>)<\/li>\n

  3. Meijer has $50 back in Meijer rewards for buying $500 in gift cards<\/a> through May 7 for most third party brands (or you can break this up into $5 off of $50 increments if you like pointless extra work). I\u2019d focus on Home Depot and BestBuy gift cards as the best for resale value, scale with multiple MPerks accounts, and double check the excluded brand list if you want a different gift card.\n

    You can\u2019t buy gift cards with MPerks rewards to create an infinite loop, but you can buy frozen pizza so there\u2019s that.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

    Frozen pizza from Meijer can protect you from dealing with this abomination, or if this is your cup of tea, I guess you should buy Pizza Hut gift cards? Just don\u2019t tell me about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
