Someone on DOC reported seeing 26 weeks for some merchants.

@goldsheet said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

ALLY Online Savings Account rate is increasing from 3.40% to 3.60%

Money Market is going from 3.5% to 3.8%. Don’t understand why there is a difference between the two.

@goldsheet said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

You must open a new PenFed Premium Online Savings account

It also works for depositing new money into an existing account.

Got $1.xx today. Wow, this thread started over 6 years ago!

1000 points for tech recycling is available for the next 2 weeks, until 4/20.

Recycling is a continuation of the offer which started a few weeks ago, NOT a new offer.

@mrvietnam said in Staples - New Offer STARTS AGAIN 2/2/25 Recycle 10 ink carts at store get $25 in rewards make sure offer is activated:

This current cartridge recycling offer expires February 28 so hopefully on March 1, we’ll see a new offer

Yes, either March 1 or 2. It’s in next week’s ad.

There is no need to contact Staples. This is something that can be easily checked with the rebate center. If a rebate card has not been used/activated 30 days after the actual shipping date (not the date for the “Your Easy Rebate is in the mail!”), that can be cancelled and resent.

Use the tracking number on the rebate card at rebateshq.com to find out the rebate submission date, and then use that date for reconciliation. For this system to work properly, don’t submit more than one rebate per day, especially for the same rebate amount.

I go to Costco 20-30 minutes before the tire center opens, so I’m the first or the second person in line. Another 30 minutes later, my car is done.

What happened to the email notifications?

old: [PhatWallet Forums: Welcome Home to Savings] No More PLENTI POINTS at Rite Aid in 2018
new: You have a new Notification from PhatWallet Forums: Welcome Home to Savings

We’re going backwards.

On my Amex statement: “Effective February 2, 2018, Card Members will no longer be able to transfer Membership Rewards points to the Plenti rewards program.”

The rebate form in the OP is for online orders, which does not include the pillows. This is the rebate form for in-store purchases:
https://www.macysrebates.com/static/quicktrack/macys/Current-US-Rebate-Form.pdf

People on SD reported these in-store prices:

standard firm: $15
standard extra firm: $16
king firm: $16
king extra firm: $20

10% includes this quarter’s mobile payment bonus category, not in addition to it: 1% regular reward, 4% mobile payment, 5% Best Buy.

The maximum Best Buy bonus amount depends on your account. My offer is limited to $300 maximum purchase, not $400.

I missed today’s eBay 20% coupon because there is no topic alert.

Ange and Sara are upvoting each other … a lot.

Staples will have $200 MasterCard without purchase fee. If you have a 5% credit card for office supplies, this may be interesting to you.

1. Must have one of the eligible phones.
2. Must port-in a number.

I saw the banner in my Amazon account yesterday but ignored it after I read “no gift card” in the T&C. Then I searched other deal sites and saw that the deal actually works for gift cards. Already finished my $500 order.

I also signed up for the free trial Prime membership and received this offer:

1. Buy a Prime item before Prime Day.
2. Find something great on Prime Day!
3. Claim your $10 reward.

@geezlouise said in Amazon Prime Members: Get 20% off eligible purchases when you use Amex Membership Rewards Points (maximum discount of $100) - YMMV for Non-Members:

I was able to get $500 in GCs - $400 for Amazon and $100 for Whole Foods - with the discount. No merchandise necessary but no matter what combination I tried, I was only able to get the 20% off with a max of $400 in Amazon GCs. If I had more than that in Amazon cards the discount dropped to 10%.

The discount cannot be applied to the Amazon GC, so at least 20% of the total has to be something other than the Amazon GC to absorb the discount.

After the Whole Foods purchase, you get a confirmation email:
“Your recent Whole Foods Market purchase earned you $10 to spend on Prime Day.”

Ally went up to 1.80%.

The top tier of 11-month no-penalty CD (essentially liquid) went up to 2.00%.

I was surprised to see Amazon GC at Best Buy again. Bought $25 Amazon for $20.

SFGI: 2.07%

Based on the terms, only business cards are eligible for these offers. I could add all 3 offers, but my card is not a business card.

@noahbody said in Staples B&M 1/13-19: Fee Free $200 Visa GC and $15 off $75 in store Q valid to 1/19:

The coupon has gift cards as an exclusion so what makes you think it will work with the Visa g/c ?

The coupon has nothing to do with the Visa GC.

Important Information: Upcoming Cash+ Category Change.

TV, Internet & Streaming Services will replace Car Rentals as a 5% Cash+ Category on 4/1. Earn 5% cash back when you register and use your Cash+ Card to pay your cable, internet or streaming services providers.

I got the full $100 Lowes and $50 Staples, all gift cards through several transactions. I received emails at the beginning, but not for latter ones.

@goldsheet said in Best Nationally Available High APY Liquid Accounts:

Not the highest rate (2.25% APY) but an easy $100 bonus.

Thanks. I moved some money out for the Ally bonus. Good time to move some back.

This is a long 6-month promotion, but the rebate limit is 4 instead of 2.

Marcus by Goldman Sachs is dropping to 2.15% tomorrow.

If you spend $10 at Whole Foods with your Prime ID, they’ll give you a $10 Amazon credit for Prime Day shopping. That’s it. You don’t have to use to install/use an app to participate in this offer.

This started with the 5/9/2019 rewards email, but I have not seen it being enforced:

“Rewards may be redeemed at any Staples store, online at staples.com® with a minimum purchase of $100 or more (prior to the application of rewards)”

I have seen that behavior for kiosk orders, but don’t count on it working that way for all transactions.

@mrvietnam Look at the purchase details. The recycle section is not reliable.

@my4mainecoons said in Is Staples Rewards no Longer Deducting Coupon Value?:

Kiosk receipt doesn’t have the coupon on it so I should be able to get the whole $16 rebate. (Maximum rebate is $16.) The packing list won’t have the coupon either.

Looking at my last kiosk order, the packing list does have the coupon total under “coupon credit”. The kiosk “customer copy” doesn’t look like a receipt.

A post on SD seems to suggest that the reward is now deducted before determining the purchase requirement for a coupon. For example, $70 purchase - $40 reward = $30, so a $30 off $60 coupon cannot be used. I cannot test if this true because my reward coupon no longer works online.

Use code POWERTEN (not POWER10) by 10/13. $25 minimum spend.

@fivetalents said in Lowe’s Gift Card $100 (Email Delivery) For $90.00 @ Staples.com:

Delivered within 1-10 business days

Should be within a few hours, but I don’t know about the weekend. This is out of stock now, but it may come back later. I bought a couple last night.

@ctujackbauer said in Get a free $5 Target coupon when you get a flu shot at CVS Target locations:

1 per customer.

I’m wondering if someone has tried to get multiple flu shots just for the coupon.

Retailmenot has 18% cashback now.
