My 500 for the 20X the points posted. If you are waiting on that, or need those miles to get something exciting

I got 500 AM also. Those I believe are the 30X Multiplier for the Feb 13-15 promotion (post by Mar 16). The 20X promotion Feb 27-Mar 1 won't post until April 6. I've started keeping a lot more details on my spreadsheet for the offers I do.

Haven't tried Stacks yet even though it's only five minutes away. We did stop in for a late lunch/early dinner once only to find it closes at 3. We will get there eventually. Hope it's as good as everyone says it is. The Dennys near us has gone down hill and not very good anymore. It used to be our go to. Nothing like breakfast for dinner.
Anyways, enjoy your meal.

Completely off topic. A girlfriend of mine posted this on Facebook. I though I would share it here. Food for thought.

Someone who had terminal cancer once said, "Don't be sad for me, we all come to this world to be tourists, enjoy life, go sightseeing, do good deeds, I just so happen to be leaving earlier than others".

If that is from the 30x offer, my actual Staples miles haven't even posted yet LOL I spent $101 before tax, but my multiplier shows up at 87 miles. Wouldn't that mean I earned 3 base miles? I either thought Staples base miles were 1 mile for $20 or 1 mile for $35. Either way it doesn't add up correctly. LOL

I just received this in an email. Looks like there will be free passes going forward with the AMs World Elite MC. I'm pretty happy about that.

[td width="51.7754%"] New: To enhance your travel experience, we are also adding 4 free airport lounge passes per year with Mastercard Travel Pass provided by DragonPass.4​

I finally got around to reading that email. I'm happy to take 4 passes but I think I prefer the 25% discount and the 750 miles. My oldest always has a lot of extra lounge passes, so I can have those but I don't usually bother. I feel like it's a waste of a pass when you only have an hour to kill or it's a time of day that wine is not appropriate
