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

I've been angling to get a new copier for my end of the office since we have a lot more people working down here now. I was informed recently that we can't just get a new copier- first the county has to perform a study to determine if we have the need for a copier. Welcome to working for the government, folks. It's not like I'm angling to get a new copier because I think it would be fun to take home with me at night. If I tell you I need a new copier, it's because I have a legitimate need to make copies. There is literally nothing fun about that that could give me another reason to ask you for a copier.

Maybe this? They seem to be having fun.

What about SUB????

I think @SouthFayetteFan's lost the war on that acronym.

Has anyone used the visitor toll pass in Orlando https://visitortollpass.com/ The trial just started so if not I’ll be the DP
we are heading down 5/25-6/2 and wondering if it was convenient to pick up/return at the airport.

Haven't used it and probably won't since my ez pass works down there now on most of the roads I use. The small amount of usage would negate any discount for me also.

IIRC, you signed up for the Rose Gold after that product was revamped last October. Part of that revamp included automatic enrollment in Pay Over Time, which you can see on the Gold product page under Payment Flexibility.

You can chat with an Amex rep and ask to unenroll your card from the Pay Over Time program. That should open you up to future offers.

Spreadsheet is correct as usual! I actually had a hunch that it was probably something like that when I saw I was enrolled.

Got my eBates MR points today

It's not a heaping amount like @speedyfishy 's probably is, but it was a nice surprise when I logged into my account. I wasn't expecting them until next week.

Sure, the charge will come from Princess and the offer should work. I'd recommend checking Cruise Compete first. Have had luck getting a lower price than Costco.

I have heard of Cruise compete from somewhere. I was not sure if they would qualify as a TA. I know from reading Flyertalk that it is
important the charge is directly made to Princess/cruise company?

Do you talk directly to Cruise Compete or is it a site you sign up for?

Thanks for all your help!

(im such a DCL loyalist but those prices lately have me looking elsewhere!)

Ok...so if I concede and start using SUB what are you guys gonna do for me? Perhaps I'm ready to give in on this one...

Oh man. Sephora, shopdisney, raise...and now I want this skirt! MUST STOP SHOPPING!!!

Me too...but with all the deal postings, I caved and am now a proud owner of new Disney luggage from ebags. I mean, I obviously had to because I needed it for our DCL cruise this summer ("no, DH, don't point to our perfectly fine luggage that I'm trying to hide in the corner").

But come on...it's so cute! I got the set.

Lol!! I love it! I mean, how could you pass that up?

 

[GZanta77]

Attn Cruisers!! Anyone sailed with Princess? How did you like it? Looking at the Amex offers for the 22,500 points or 225 back i don't
think i can pass up.

Any experiencing stacking the offers? Have you ever booked with TA and transferred and it qualified? Thx!


**Unfortunately we are already going to Alaska next month so can't sail
with them there.

Sailed Princess three times, but the last time was 17 years ago. We loved it - they were the first 3 cruises we took and the service was outstanding. When the kids came along we moved on to Royal Caribbean/Carnival/NCL as we saw them as more kid friendly and generally cost less $$$, but we would love to get back on a Princess ship. I have the Amex offer x4 so I have been looking, but I can't find anything that works at the moment - we have already booked our cruise for next year.

You do have to sign up. It's best if you already have a specific sailing and cabin type narrowed down. Then you fill out a form and wait for quotes from TAs. The TAs won't have your contact info until you contact them. So no worries about junk mail except from Cruise Compete itself. I'd say maybe wait 2 days before you decide. I almost booked with a TA and then got a better price from someone else.

Every TA I've booked with have had the charge come directly from the cruise line. If it didn't, I'd worry something fishy was going on!

Ooooh! I'm eagerly waiting for my first points back from Ebates! My old account already got its Big Fat Check of $15! The MRs on my new account should be for a lot more.

This link shows my Rose Gold as enrolled. I've been waiting for an offer. Guess someone clicked it on for me. couldn't figure how to get my card out of it.

I've already read them both. Hope she blogs about Australia!

DH's Rose gold was automatically enrolled as well. I read that all Rose Gold's were.

@SouthFayetteFan - did you mean to post your loyalty spreadsheet with so much info showing?

 

[DrFacilier]

I just got my upgraded Disney Visa Premier. Can I just buy a pack of gum and get the statement credit?

Thank you so much - I totally did not mean to attach that. I'm not even sure how it ended up there!! I think I hit paste in my comment by accident, I deleted the picture but now that I test it out apparently that only deleted the picture in the comment and NOT the attached image!! THANK YOU!

Lol...the smaller one is my going to Disney bag!

I've also got a similar Minnie Mouse one for the grands that they use for Disney and for coming to Grandma's overnight. I got them on sale 'somewhere' for less than ebags is asking when someone probably posted on budget board a couple of years ago. It was either amazon or target I think.

I can only say my heart was beating when I saw it! And then my battery in my laptop dies and I had to plug it in to let you know!
