Small Business Saturday Today
If you’re a mileage hustler, it’s safe to say you have an American Express card…or 2…or 3. I just took a look and I have 6 of them. Here are the steps I’m taking to get a free $150:
- Register all your American Express cards here
- Today, November 26th, spend $25 or more at a small business (independently owned, non-franchise store or restaurant) with each card you registered.
- Within 2 statements, you get a $25 credit on each card (and you usually get it much sooner)
United Months of Miles – Finally Posting
If you took part in United’s Months of Miles promotion, you’ll be happy to learn that I finally got my gift card purchases to post today. We’ve waited over 2 months, but it looks like it will finally work out for us!
For those who missed out, this was probably the best promotion of the year. I received a postcard in the mail telling me I’d get 1,000 United Airlines miles for every 2 purchases made through the United Airlines shopping mall. I ended up buying 400 gift cards. If all works out, this will be a whopping 200,000 mile payday. Rare promotions like this are the main reason to check the blog daily…the deal reached a peak September 9th when we had one day to make unlimited purchases for miles…and then it went back down to a 25,000 mile limit.
