Here is IMHO one of the best Amex Sync deals ever… a 5 use $75 off $250 at your choice of some key stores including Home Depot and Staples.
This seems to be targeted on Business cards only. I was 1 for 2 bus cards, my Gold card had it but my shiny new Bus Platinum didn’t – which is still in my opinion fortunate to bat 50% on this one.
You need to look for the offer titled “Stock Up and Save for Your Business”
Here are the full terms & conditions:

For example, your transaction will not qualify if it is not made directly with the merchant. In addition, in most cases, you will not receive the statement credit if your transaction is made with an electronic wallet or through a third party or if the merchant uses a mobile or wireless card reader to process it.

Southwest 10x portal bonus at Sears
This has been going for a few days, but I don’t recommend this if you have a Discover card, as that is paying 10% and doubling. But if you are close to Companion Pass status and need the points is still pretty darn good.
Ipad mini deal at Groupon
This deal was supposed to end yesterday… but it lives – apparently extended for another 10 days. This Ipad mini priced at $179.99 at Groupon sells for around $245 on Amazon.
There is a limit of 5, and Groupon has shut people down for not abiding by coupon and volume limit rules and Apple products always seem to get more scrutiny – so just be aware.
Of course you should go through a portal to get this, but you can also rack up some miles by buying Groupon gift cards first. You can buy egift cards on Staples and earn 5x Ink points.. but they will typically be delivered the next morning. You could get 5% back plus fuel points by buying at a supermarket. You could also go through ebay and buy Groupon egiftcards from Paypal Digital gifts, this should give you 5x points with a Chase Ink card but you will be subject to all their unpublished volume limits. The choice is yours.
Price match to Staples?
Staples has this as well. I doubt they would price match to a Groupon sale, but you could try. It’s online only apparently. I would try, but I was already warned on too many online ipad purchases. And I’m not sure if they would match to Groupon on principle. But if you have success.. let us know.
Oh, and one more thing…
Staples has Visa gift cards on sale this coming week starting tomorrow. That means when you stack the Amex deal you will be getting $95 back on a $300 or more purchase of gift cards (less $13.90 in fees… but still, that’s pretty darn good!)
