@jtownsucks46 or anyone else, which account >4.5% would you recommend? One that’s easy to set up, connect to other accounts, transfer money quickly, etc.

S&S orders still working properly for me, but a different glitch remains. I have a gift card balance, and I don’t see a way to use the GC as a default payment. So, when I place the order, I immediately go to order status where it says I have an available GC balance and I can click “apply” to then change the payment method. This is fine—as long as I remember to do this.
During the S&S process there’s supposed to be an option to use the GC balance and it’s set to No by default.
Yes, but there’s still a glitch. This has actually been going on longer than the original problem I had when I first made this thread. I can set gift card balance as my default payment method in my S&S account settings, but it just does not stick. When I try to make an S&S order, it shows one of my linked credit cards as the payment method. If I try to change the payment method on the checkout page (before submitting the order) by clicking “change”, it shows my credit card(s) available as other methods of payment but does not show my gift card balance. So, I go ahead and place the order but then have to go to my order status and it is there that I then can apply my gift card as payment. I suppose I could try deleting all my linked credit cards and see what happens, but anyway.
Not exactly a major issue, but a glitch and annoyance nonetheless.
Just tried placing a S&S order, was signed in to the wrong account, S&S order page looked good, was able to add the additional coupon and use GC.
Switched to the proper account, the order page sucks and nowhere to put in coupon or use GC. Contacted CSR they said they will have a dedicated team look into it and fix within 24-48 hours.

So I went to place a S&S order today and I didn’t have an option to pay with my gift card balance so I did a chat with support and they had to have someone call me. They told me to add the subscription and they updated my payment method to the gift card balance but I can do that but they weren’t understanding that this is an issue. So that was worthless.
Reached out to Amazon a few days later through chat and was told that gcs are no longer an option for S&S
And yet I can change to a gift card on a S&S order after I place it, so that isn’t true at all.

RE: WENDYS APP OFFER: Free Any SIze Fries with purchase (large fries $2.99 value) ends 4/16posted in Expired Deals
@briarycliffs So I should spend $3 in gas to take a 22 mile round trip vs the one that’s a 3 mile round trip from my house to save 50 cents? I kid, but I do see the Newport one is $3.29 as you say. Interesting. I wouldn’t have thought that would be the case.

RE: WENDYS APP OFFER: Free Any SIze Fries with purchase (large fries $2.99 value) ends 4/16posted in Expired Deals
I’m wondering where you live that a large fries is $2.99. In Cincinnati, which I consider to be pretty low cost, they are now $3.79. Last time we got this offer we got a junior frosty, which really is tiny, for $1.79 and the free fries.

RE: Swagbucks: Earn ongoing Swagbucks at local resturants (inc some fast food chains) with linked credit card, get $5 bonus (500 points) with first chargeposted in Hot Deals
If you’re going to do SB, make sure to do the other cash back apps as they sometimes have overlapping restaurants/bars/breweries. I recently ate a local restaurant that was 4% back at SB, 18% back at Upside, 5% back at Dosh and 5% back with T-Mobile Dining. I also got $10 bonus offers with Upside and T-Mobile. So on a ~$54 bill, I got around $32 back. That was pretty unusual obviously but if you are going to go there anyway, might as well earn a few bucks back.
Note, if you don’t have T-Mobile, Rakuten must use the same network as you can’t add cards to both apps at the same time. Now that I got my T-Mobile bonus, I’ll switch back to Rakuten since T-Mobile you have to build up $10 before you get credited, whereas Rakuten just comes back every quarter no matter how much you earned.

RE: Expired Amazon Prime PLANTERS Deluxe Pistachio Mix, 1.15 lb. Resealable Canister - Deluxe Pistachio Mix: Pistachios, Almonds & Cashews Roasted in Peanut Oil with Sea Salt $7.58 S&Sposted in Expired Deals
I was really disappointed in the quality of these Planter’s cashews, but these are “deluxe” so I’ll give them a go.

And now it’s back to working correctly for me - I can add the gum linked above to my May S&S order with the coupon and 15% off. Although it took my directly to the cart without showing me the normal S&S confirmation screen but at least the savings are correct. So it looks like it’s a 2 day period where I was affected by this.

@mtnagel I would reach out to a CSR. They might give you a coupon and they might unsubscribe you from whatever beta program you got put into.
Yeah I would if there was something I really wanted that was affected by this.
Just tried again now and noticed this. This is if you click, “change” under “First delivery on Apr 2”. I’m hoping that the 5% is just a typo as when I tested previously, the May delivery would get 15% because I had 5+ items in that S&S.

RE: FREE Can of Serious Bean Co. Beans Coupon - exp unkposted in Grocery & Drugstore
Anyone still doing this? I’ve probably gotten at least 50 cans of this for free, but I suspect the gravy train is coming to an end. Kroger had them all on close out today so they might be discontinuing it. But that might not even matter as I tried to get another one using an Incognito window like I have for the last 9 months, but this time they asked for a phone number to text and said I had reached my limit. I still have a few coupons saved, so I’ll try to get a few more, but looks like this is over. It was crazy how I could keep doing it but I guess they finally figured it out.
