I love credit cards so much! v2.0 (see first page for add'l details)

[Judique]

J4U offers for 10x points on select Happy Cards when buying $50 or more. Expires 12/29. Available coupons:
Eats
Dining
Bites
Teen
Beauty
Lady
Bride
Her
Student

Conflicting language states one per household in the description but it's an unlimited use coupon
The offer type - unlimited - should supercede any other language though. This is my offer from Acme.

But no Happy Guy or Happy Holidays - I'm mostly looking for the ones I can change into other gift cards. Bed bath and beyond no longer carries other gift cards in my area. I added the offer, just in case there's word of Happy Guy crediting also - was thinking of trying a $50 card to test it out.

Thinking of PCing my Sw Plus to a Priority. I really should have gotten a Priority instead of the Plus. My anniversary is in Jan but not sure if my AF will hit in Jan or Feb 1.

Do I need to wait until the AF hits to PC? Or can I call in Jan to do this?

Does PCing change reset my clock for when I can go for a new card bonus? I’ll want to try for CP for 2021/2022 24 months after the bonus I got on the plus. I assume this will work. Actually, I’ll probably go for 2 biz cards if that is still an option then but don’t want to mess up the personal timing if I need that (plan b).

Is this the first anniversary for your plus? I think you have to wait a year since it is a personal card but it should be a year from opening. You could look back on your first couple statements to see when your af posted. I would probably wait for them to post your anniversary points and then call in...

It will not reset your bonus clock or anything.

My BBY doesn’t carry any others either. The only others I ever saw there were iTunes.

definitely know PCing does not reset the bonus clock since I did it last year.
your AF would post 2/1 if you opened the card in January, you could call to PC after the card has been opened a year or wait until 2/1 when the AF posts...Chase will refund the AF for the Plus

YES! And we drive right by it every single Sunday on our way home from church and at that exact moment, we always crave CFA and lament that they have to be closed on Sundays!!! Like come on, we know you want family time, but we want our chicken!!

i talked to the owner of mine when I was going a lot.. like once a week he said its a lot easier to set schedules when there is one day off a week. I think this is why some restaurants are even closed for 2 days.

My lab results (annual check up) say "Your cholesterol is slightly low. avoid fried fatty food." I don't even eat fatty or fried food. My issue is I eat about a pound of sugar a day. But I don't even see a lipid profile. I've been really careful this year trying to get my cholesterol down because two years ago it was 271 (yes, I know that's really high) and last year I got it down almost 40 points and wanted to continue that trend.

Do you want this fair skinned girl forgot to make sure to pack plenty of for the Caribbean? Yep, suntan lotion! Thank goodness we get a discount and I’ll get 3x on my CSR since it’s $27. Yikes! It’s either pay the pauper or get burnt...

I see that Cheesecake Factory has the deal today for buy $25 gc, get two free slices of cheesecake, and it will work for online orders. Will the Amex gold credit work with an online order like that?

If you consume a lot of sugar, I would insist on the full lipid profile and pay particular attention to the triglycerides number. Thats the real danger marker for me......and I have unfortunately had a blocked artery at a time when my triglycerides were running in the 600's.

My tryglyceride level was 64 last year so I think I'm okay. But I guess it's the not having the full lipid profile this year that is confusing me. And yikes!

My guess is the 90 minutes a day I do on the stairmaster at the highest level is still offsetting most of the sugar.

ETA: I found it. It was in the letter from the doctor but not the lab results section. And unfortunately I gained back the 40 points I lost Time to cut back on cookies and ice cream I guess.

Pretty sure it does not because it process through cashstar.
Now I’m tempted to buy more. Already bought two on the BF sale

My cholesterol numbers are crazy high this year. My doctor is not happy with me and wants me on a statin. I got a reprieve of 6 months to try diet and exercise. I'd be interested to know what you have been doing to lower your numbers. BTW, other that LDL, all my numbers look good.

Same with me. LDL is 159. Everything else is okay but total is 271. I got it down initially by going from 7 eggs a week to 4-5. Then I cut back this year to 2-3 but it jumped back up. I think it really is the junk I eat (baked goods and ice cream) and I really need to be more conscientious now that I'm in my 40s. Ugh!

@wendow Atom GCs are back on Costco!!!! Regular price of $74.99. I'm so excited I feel like buying a bunch in case they disappear again.

Since I'm in my 50s, I really need to be conscientious!

All i can say is ......don't trust everything your doctors tell you and try to avoid going on a statin if at all possible. For example, they might tell you that going on a statin will cut your risk of a heart attack by 50%.....but that might mean your chances of having a heart attack go from 2% to 1%. You have decide if the potential side effects of statins are worth it for a 1% real terms reduction in risk.

Research, Research, Research.

Ooh!! Me too! I want the $65 price again but saving $25 is nothing to sneeze at either. I usually buy 2 and that lasts us all year. I used my last $4.23 to apply to our Star Wars tickets (date night!!). Thanks for tagging me on it!

I want their calendar back! I still mourn the loss every year at this time. I used to buy a couple for us plus I bought several as gifts. My dd will be down at Disney for her DCP next year and there is a CFA right by the CP housing. I was thinking how great the calendar would be for her

When did they stop the calendar? We never got it but so many of our friends LOVED it!
