It’s raining deals! Let’s start off with…
BANK OF AMERICA OFFERS 10% CASH BACK AT SEARS AND KMART: For those of you familiar with BankAmeriDeals, B of A’s awkwardly named deal page, you may have noticed that both Sears and Kmart are offering 10% cash back through October 19. The T&C’s:
Shop Sears and earn 10% cash back! Not valid at Sears Auto or shopyourway.com. Offer valid one time only. Offer expires 10/18/2013.
So that’s a one-time 10% cash back. Some folks have reported trouble getting B of A to hold up its end of the BankAmeriDeals bargain, so you might want to consider grabbing a screenshot.
But wait, that’s not all! There’s also…
AMEX $25 OFF $75 AT STAPLES: Log into your Amex account and you may just see $25 off any $75 purchase at Staples. I saw it for two of my three cards. The fine print clearly says, “Gift cards are eligible!!!!!” (The bolding and exclamation points are mine.)
But wait, there’s more!
GET PLINK POINTS AT STAPLES: Thanks to Frequent Miler for alerting me to the fact that Staples is now available on Plink. You can get 300 Plink points, worth about $3 in gift cards, on $60 in purchases at Staples. That would go quite nicely with that Amex deal!
Right now, you’re probably thinking, “Wow, this is a lot of deals! I need some time to think about this!” Well too bad! Because Frequent Miler keeps posting amazing deals! Like…
36X AT SEARS THROUGH OCTOBER 12: No, this isn’t the same deal from two days ago, this one starts off with 12 miles per dollar from the American Airlines portal. Check out FM’s article for details.
And that’s all the deals for today. Once you’re done, you may want to blow your hard-earned money on a stainless steel Vault wallet. This is a Kickstarter project, and the wallets will cost $29-$39.
Finally: sorry to end the week on such a downer, but did you know that it’s dangerous to play the credit card game? Sad, but true. So forget all that deal stuff I wrote about, it will only lead you astray. Thanks, Yahoo Finance!
Have a great weekend, folks!
I am so jealous you were targeted for the Staples AMEX deal. I didn’t get the offer 🙁
Sorry, this may be a dumb question, but where do you find out whether you have the $25/$75 Staples on your card? I’m not sure where I need to look on my account page on on their site. Thank you!!
Login to your credit card at the Amex website. Scroll down the main page, click on the “Offers For You” tab. Hopefully you’ll see the Staples offer there, though you won’t necessarily see it for all Amex cards.
Does that help? 🙂
2 for 3 on my cards, and I haven’t even checked my wife’s cards yet. Are you married? Spouses are great for credit card fun. 😉
Thnx, I found it after logging on from my computer; I guess it doesn’t show up on my iPhone.
