I love the American Express Sync offers. The amount of money saved has more than paid for the annual fee for my Starwood card.
You should check out your offers and see what are available. I plan to buy gift cards from Lands End, West Elm, JCPenney, Best Buy, and Neiman Marcus. I expect the sales to all wash out and earn $0 on the gift card churn. This is great as it’ll be free points!
I’m wondering if you have done Neiman Marcus and if the gift card works since the ecode is selling above value!
I did the Neiman Marcus offer – will write about it shortly. Generally speaking I don’t do the e-codes because the sites that buy the cards charge 5% fee.
