@amusingsquid said in CD Thread - Post The Best Nationally Available Rates:
@turtlebug If I have an existing 11 month no penalty CD with Ally (at 1.50%) will it automatically be upped to 1.75? (The high yield 12 month CD is at 2.0, the no penalty 11 month is now at 1.75)
And can I end that 1.75% CD and put it everything (including interest earned) into the 2.0 percent high yield CD?
Nothing is automatic. You have to close the account and open a new one.
Give it a rest. What do you think would have happened if the Staples-Office Depot merger went through?
Chrome works fine, but not IE11. This problem started a few days ago.
https://phatwalletforums.com/ (which goes to Hot Deals) works, and topics there work fine.
https://phatwalletforums.com/categories works, but anything I click over there would not work (spinning circle).
The LG X Charge has a $150 rebate until 1/25. $180 + tax - $150.
Plenti is the ONLY reason I go to Rite Aid. I started with a bonus offer transferring from Amex Reward points. Otherwise, most of the items I buy are cheaper elsewhere.
@dangeruss 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:
@c3 I signed up for the one week trial too… except that trial is going to end before prime day :-(.
Your free trial is only good for a week? I thought it’s always 30 days.
Free delivery for $15 order is back for many stores.
Google Home mini is on sale for $34, or $25.50 after 25% off.
@mrvietnam I expect it to be $10 after store coupons. Manufacturers’ coupons shouldn’t matter.
Activation fee for $100 Visa is $5.95. The other two are breakeven and money loser.
The $10 credit is active. It does NOT work with purchasing of gift cards.
@thediggler said in Whole Foods Prime Day Offers: Spend $10 In-Store, Get $10 Online Credit to Use on Prime Day & 10% Back on Prime Rewards Visa Card Purchases:
WF Credit should apply to the above.
For $10, I bought a Kindle instead of a pack of adhesive tapes. 
@mrvietnam said in Amazon device sale for Prime Day - Fire Tablet as low as $9.99, Kindle as low as $9.99:
Oh. I see. Then for the Fire 8 HD $39.99 is the final price, unless you have the Whole Foods $10 promo, right?
For the 32GB version, yes.
You only have to redeem 1 point ($0.01) to get the discount.
$19.99 is for the 16GB version, which is out of stock.
“Not eligible for Ship to Store at this time”
Got my flu shot and the $5 Target coupon today. The coupon is valid for 1 month.
@mistercheap said in STAPLES REWARDS: No Longer Expire (YMMV -see post):
@c3 sounds like they dropped you out of premier status.
My rewards account still says premier. I have the Staples More card, but I don’t know if that was ever properly linked to my rewards account.
After giving me credit for only 10 cartridges when I turned in 20 cartridges as a Premier member, and the delay in issuing the August rewards, I have less and less confidence in the Staples Rewards program.
@my4mainecoons said in STAPLES REWARDS: No Longer Expire (YMMV -see post):
why did they drop you mid-year? You should have earned Premier for the year.
The Premier upgrade is no longer based on the calendar year. This was changed a while ago.
Safeway currently has $50/$100 Visa and MasterCard discount offers for small MM, which can be used for this Amex Offer.
Rewards for October are available. I need to figure out what to do with $120 worth of rewards from the past 3 months.
Next week has $200 Visa without activation fee.
The coupon works with items on sale.
1/1/19 & Online Only. Buy 4 Michelin Tires, get 25% back* (on pretax price of 4 tires) when you pay with your Costco Anywhere Visa® Card by Citi. No submission necessary. *Via Costco Cash Card, mailed within 4-6 weeks after tire installation.
This is in addition to the normal/automatic $70 discount for buying 4 tires. For my order, the total discount is $70 + $128 = $198.
I forgot about this thread here. This year’s offer became available on 12/18/2018.
@dangeruss said in Amazon: Discover Cardholders: Pay w/ Points, Get $10 Off $30 (Valid for Select Accounts):
Only shows up on a single account for me, not any accounts that were not registered with discover points before.
One account was not eligible when this promotion started. A few days later, the banner showed up for that account.
@my4mainecoons said in Mobil 1 Motor Oil and Filter Rebates (up to $17 off):
Make sure you keep track of which eGC you use for the $2.88. It keeps working. Re-sets to $5.
Are you saying that after using it for $2.88, it resets to $5 for the next time? But if you use it for $5, then that eGC is done?
Thanks for the heads-up. I actually use conventional 5w-30 oil, not synthetic, for my 2008 Prius. With these deals, I guess there is no reason to stay with conventional.
Pick 2 of the following categories each quarter:

In the early days, the value of each coupon was MULTIPLIED by the number of jugs in the transaction. You could have cleared the whole store with just 5 coupons.
@my4mainecoons said in Visa GC $10 off @ Star / Shaw's:
@c3 How do you pay your taxes w/ prepaid gc? Are these quarterly payments?
https://www.irs.gov/payments/pay-taxes-by-credit-or-debit-card
https://www.irs.gov/payments/frequency-limit-table-by-type-of-tax-payment
The limits are tracked by each of the 3 processors separately, so take the IRS limits times 3.
Using an app is not a requirement.

Also, take $10 off your first Whole Foods Market order of $50 or more with code SAVE10WF at checkout.
That’s a separate offer.
Another Plus benefit by limiting non-Plus customers:
@dangeruss said in Staples PLUS Membership on sale for $15 (reg. $49):
Unless you’re spending $1k+ per year to qualify for Premier,
Having the Staples More account (store credit card) gives you the Premier status as well.

I made and saved a screen capture of that QR code in case I decide to shop again at Whole Foods (guessing it’s static).
The one from the browser changes every 90 seconds. The one from the WF app changes every 15 seconds.
@dionaea said in Staples PLUS Membership on sale for $15 (reg. $49):
My favorite seller on ebay for bulk cartridges for recycling doesn’t have any large amounts (120 to 150 or so) for sale right now, and I couldn’t find any others at a reasonable price. Suggestions?
I see 300 for $28, which is the same as my last purchase.
Something else has to be different, not just the email address. It didn’t work for me when I changed just the email address.
@loudmouthbass said in Mobil 1 Motor Oil and Filter Rebates (up to $17 off):
F Y I and YMMV…Chose the iRCheck option, 2 banks and 1 credit union would not accept iRCheck for deposit and could not be cashed.
Remote deposit should be the best method with it.
It’s back in stock, but the discount is gone.
@mrvietnam said in Staples September 2019 rewards (including ink rewards) now available to print:
I also had about $4.80 or so in regular rewards that was carried over for several months and they issued me a $4 rewards for that,
That’s odd. The minimum should be $5.
This was in my account, which I activated a few days ago. Now it’s no longer listed in the active offers.
I turned in my ink cartridges and had my Rewards card scanned. The cashier forgot to add the $200 Visa, so that was purchased in a separate transaction. The cashier did not bother to scan my Rewards card, saying that I would not get any reward for the Visa anyway. I just checked my Staples Rewards account, and both transactions are there, even though my Rewards account number is NOT on the Visa receipt. I have never seen that before.
BTW, there is an Amex Offer for $25 off $100 at Staples. Primarily for business cards, but I got it on my Blue Cash Preferred.
@daytrader said in Staples ink rewards redeemable in-store only starting 7/11/19:
not sure if Staples is trying to drive business away.
Drive business to the store, and get people to pay for the Plus membership.
So this is proof the $100 minimum logic is not built into the kiosk/store order.
That $100 minimum has not been implemented anywhere, but they can do that at anytime.
@mrvietnam said in Staples ink rewards redeemable in-store only starting 7/11/19:
Does anyone know if the $30 or more ink/toner purchase every six months to qualify for ink rewards can be done by paying with a Staples gift card?
of course
@mrvietnam said in Staples ink rewards redeemable in-store only starting 7/11/19:
Can unopened toner be stored for 6-9 months without harming its quality?
I have been using the same toner cartridge for the past 2-3 years.
@harperr said in Staples ink rewards redeemable in-store only starting 7/11/19:
I just joined Staples Plus to see if I could use Staples Rewards on an online order. No go for me. This is the message I get:
“Coupon couldn’t be redeemed:The entered coupon doesn’t exist. Please double-check or reenter to make sure the coupon code is typed correctly.”Anyone have luck using them on a kiosk order? These changes are a BIG devaluation for me.
I think only new rewards issued after you joined Staples Plus can be used online. No problem with kiosk order if you pay in the store.

Your rate is based upon the number of daily steps in your fitness tracker.
@my4mainecoons said in Staples ink rewards redeemable in-store only starting 7/11/19:
Maybe the person on SD handed over their Rewards first?
It was an online transaction, and the $40 reward was applied before the coupon. I don’t know if the order makes any difference for online transaction.
My eBay purchase transaction was posted to my account, but not the $5 bonus.
The day has come. As a premier member, my rewards coupon no longer works online.
