On Why I Decided to Cancel My Mom’s Avios Booking and Use Citi Prestige Points Instead

May 10, 2016 By Leana 4 Comments

Yesterday I’ve mentioned that I went ahead and canceled mine and my husband’s Citi Prestige. Of course, I needed to do something with our leftover points first (see my post for more on Citi rules).

(Dead) Hot Deal: Direct Link for Amex Personal Platinum 100K Points Bonus for $3,000 in Spending

May 10, 2016 By Leana 6 Comments

Update: Looks it’s dead. I just had to publish a quick post with heads up on this offer. This is as good as this bonus gets, at least for that amount of minimum spending. If you’ve been waiting for it, now is the time to apply. Regular bonus is only 40K points, so this should […]

May 3, 2016 By Leana 8 Comments

As I’ve mentioned few days ago, Amex came out with a pretty hot offer on Platinum Mercedes-Benz card. How hot? Well, I would describe it as almost sizzling, but not quite. The problem? That darn $475 annual fee. I keep going back and forth on whether to sign up or not, but will probably pull […]
