    Ebates is a cash back website where anyone can sign up and earn cash back on internet purchases when you visit popular online retailers such as Amazon, LivingSocial, Apple, and many more. What’s nice about cash back sites like Ebates is that you can use them to double dip with your miles/points earning or cash back earning credit cards. Recently though, I blogged about the AMAZING 100k American Airlines points credit card sign up bonus that Citi is currently offering on the executive card. One of the two caveats to…… (click read more!)

    MONEY: Free $25 promo code for Lyft rides

    Lyft is a ridesharing company similar to Uber and Sidecar. In the major metropolitan cities of the United States, Lyft has been growing to be a friendly alternative to taxi cabs. For a limited time, new Lyft users can receive a $25 promotion code valid on their first ride. Simply enter promo code “VZDGLQ” into your app when registering. I personally love using Lyft when traveling around San Francisco. It saves the hassle of worrying about parking (which can be ridiculously expensive in the city), and it’s also much friendlier…… (click read more!)

    American Express is running a special promotion for its American Express gift cards where they are waiving the purchase fee if you purchase the gift card online through their official gift card website at americanexpress.comĀ and use promo code HOLIDAYCC3.

    MONEY: New “Coin” card to become the one card to rule them all? For a limited time, pre-order one for $50 or FREE.

    The latest chatter in the technology blogs and news columns lately have been about the new Coin card, and it is one that I felt I absolutely had to feature in this blog because of the solution it provides to the age-old issue for miles enthusiasts: “How do you know which credit cards to stuff into your small wallet?” The Coin card will provide its cardholder with the option to store up to 8 credit cards, debit cards, or rewards cards inside of it. When you want to switch cards,…… (click read more!)

    MONEY: Get $5 on $25+ at BP Gas station & $25 back on $250+ at Best Buy via American Express Sync

    By now, if you are an American Express cardholder, you should be very familiar with the American Express Sync rewards program that came out about two years ago. If you are not, the basic premise is that you can sync your American Express card with social media in order to add special promotions to your card. These promotions often come in the form of free money on your statement credit. In 2012, I was easily able to leverage these sync rewards to get back over $100 in statement credits for…… (click read more!)

    MONEY: Ditch the taxis and take a Lyft (+ free $20 promo code for Seattle)

    Over the past couple of years, I have been watching the rise in the number of peer-to-peer ride sharing companies gaining traction, notably SideCar and Lyft. Not only are these options cheaper than taking a taxi, but the experience is completely different: it’s like having a friend pick you up and take you somewhere. I recently joined the Lyft community both as a driver and as a passenger. I thought it would be a fun experience to get to know some more folks in San Francisco, and also because I…… (click read more!)
