I love credit cards so much! v7.0 - 2025 (see first page for add'l details)

Does Chase ever give retention offers? AF just posted on my CSR ($550). I'm likely going to keep it open one more year since I just got in under the gun with the old AF, but I'm kind of waffling on it - I don't think I'll use most of the new benefits (except the $300 travel credit). If there was any bit of an incentive I'd keep it open for sure.

There's been some DPs recently of retention bonuses ranging from $300-$500, no spend.

Does anyone know if getting MRs for opening an amex business checking account will result in getting a 1099Misc? If so, how much are they valued at?

Yes, valued at 1 cent per point.
 

Just to be sure. When booking a FHR hotel if I pay with $300 cash and the rest with points I'll still get the $300 credit?
 
They had them at my staples. Sucks that I can never get the ones at Office Depot since the savings is higher.

I will head over to Sam’s Club and flip these to Disney GC’s. I love that you can split payment in person at Sam’s so I don’t get stuck with small amounts on the prepaids
Sam's lets you buy a Disney gift card with the Visa gift card?

We don't have a membership right now as I currently have Costco and BJ's. I usually get one when I can get it for almost free.

But, I don't remember being able to do that. Guess I need to get a Sam's card!

It's possible it's only Mastercard when choosing credit. I *think* I used a Vanilla Visa there but I cannot remember 100%. Yesterday I bought Mastercard GC's at Staples and used them right away at Sams. (Sam's also has the $190 for $200 cards in store now)

I can do it at BJ's with cards I have purchased at Staples/OD/OM. I always do them as debit and put in the pin though. I have used them online at Sam's when they used to allow multiple cards when you check out. (I think it is just 2 now that they allow you to split payment)

Since my AF just hit decided to try, no retention offer. Since I use PYB and book through the portal the CSR is a keeper for at least this year.
 
Unfortunately my store just carries the sign lol cards are always gone
So funny both of my stores have no sign. The $200 cards just happened to be sitting in the $100 card slot, I took it to the register hoping it would ring $190 and it did. The $66.50 for $70 were gone at my stores but as of yesterday showed back up.

There's a Sam's membership deal right now for $15, if you need to join!
 
Moved all my UR's to my CSP in anticipation of October 26, I think it is. To keep them at 1.25 for booking.

Was thinking I could grab more gift cards this week and next week. But the UR's wouldn't post until Nov 1st, so will not hold the 1.25. Will get some Visas when they show.

I'm going to miss that little bump up. I've lucked out also and got points boost on a few rooms, but I don't see it where I need it outside the Disney area.

Meanwhile I let some Choice points go up in smoke accidentally. I had enough left over from the Radisson conversion for a couple of nights and was going to donate them but forgot.
