Tuesday Pair

  • Thanks to reader Babu for sending this Asiana card offer. 30,000 miles and it’s from one of my favorites, Bank of America. Might be a little weird taking a break from Alaska applications, but I’ll live. I think.
  • Take a few seconds to register for Marriott’s MegaBonus. Not the sexiest deal in the world but quick to sign up and some extra points for stays.

100,000 Hilton Surpass Link

Thanks to reader Smitty for sending this updated link. Obviously, 100,000 Hilton points for the Surpass is worth considering if you haven’t had this card.

End Of Week Stuff

  • Heard from a couple of you who already won prizes in the contest mentioned on Tuesday. One picked up 5,000 points and the other got 10,000. Maybe it’s just me, but Starwood contests always seem more winnable than most.
  • Here’s a new way to redeem Marriott points for experiences. A few decent options and a bunch of overpriced ones.
  • The best car rental promo of the year is back from National. They continue to be my favorite choice for vacation cars. I have a few nightmare rental stories but never any drama with National.
  • Radpad is dead to me until they figure out how how to act less like Clownpad.
  • Coincidentally, Rebecca from Plastiq reached out and they’re offering a good deal on Mastercard payments for rent and mortgages.

Have a great weekend, nerds!

Thursdeals

  • Spend 30 bucks for a package of 20 Uber rides in September – Washington DC, Boston, or Miami. Boston costs $10 more.
  • Another very easy 25 points from Hertz. Takes 10 seconds but won’t extend your expiration date.
  • A few of you reached out yesterday with success getting the Sapphire Reserve card by going to Case branches and asking if preapproved. Reader Matt also mentioned his banker directing him to a JP Morgan Reserve card with the same 100,000-point bonus. If you can somehow manage to get both, I’d say 200,000 points is worth a drive to the bank.

Ebates Triple

Thanks to reader Rob for sharing that Ebates is offering triple cashback this week for a lot of stores. Take a look to see if anything stands out for you portal lovers who take advantage of these.
