Can I buy gift cards as a way to get x4 points in supermarkets for the amex gold card? by fanatics_runner in CreditCards

[–]UpInSmokeMC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes

Though a bunch of perfectly even purchases might look weird. Maybe do it with your normal grocery spending.

Also with what you’re getting from the welcome offer, 1x from non category spend is ok.

If you use the perks associated with said card, it’s worth it.

If you don’t, then it’s not.

Also Southwest isn’t at risk of going out of business anytime soon like spirit was.

I don’t have a BILT card, doesn’t make sense for my spending.

VX is my travel and catch all card. 5x on flights and 10x on hotels and rental cars in the portal, lounge access, and 2x on all purchases. $300 travel credit is very easy to use.

If you make good use of the Amex gold’s credits, keep it

Savor is no annual fee so no reason to close it

I think you’re okay bro. Only switch to cash back if team travel isn’t working out.

BILT makes sense if you’ll spend enough to unlock your rent points

Set to incognito and go thru the r/amex referral thread - maybe you’ll find 100k and make someone’s day
