I'm just curious as to how you found us and heard about this great and helpful group.
You got great advice from
@SouthFayetteFan - Start with the Chase credit cards.
If by SPG spending you mean, did DH's brother and sister each purchase 30k SPG points during the 35% off sale that ends this month and did my brother and nephew also buy 30K SPG points? Why yes, they all did as soon as they moved in with us
I usually go by my statement and just see what the purchases total and subtract any returns. After the second statement closes I pay much closer attention to where I'm at and where I need to be in terms of MSR.
YAY! So excited and happy that our little group here was able to guide you to a nice chunk of savings towards your trip!
Yes! There's always a fare war when or pricing drops drastically when I can't take advantage of it. This is because I always schedule and plan way in advance. Looking forward to retirement and planning nothing except taking advantage of fare wars some day.
