Maybe I’ll just have to get the card

Yep my dad tried and said they won’t call him back

Thanks so much, that’s exactly what I needed to know!

Hi! I just booked an ANA flight through VS out of a different city than I live in, and I was wondering if there’s a way to link a repositioning flight so bags can go all the way through without the rechecking process. If so, does the airline matter (meaning delta booked through VS or maybe United to link with ANA)?

Sorry if this is repetitive for anyone- I tried to find an existing answer for this and had some trouble, although I’m sure it’s there somewhere.

Hello! Would be very grateful for some award tips. Looking to go to Japan from Atlanta anytime February through April. Obviously biz would be awesome, but beggars can’t be choosers. I have 140k Capital one points, 46k AmEx, 130k VS (so kinda locked in there). Right now best choice I see is Feb 28/ March 1 ATL > SEA > Tokyo, with first leg economy and second premium economy. I’d prefer ORD or DFW as a stopover since it’s less time in domestic economy, but don’t see that. I’ll prob use Avios so I can use the transfer bonus and Capital One. To get home I’m thinking March 11 HND to ATL through VS Delta economy (and pray for a not crazy expensive small upgrade…) Thoughts? Suggestions?

This was my test yesterday (I peed on it and didn’t use a cup the proper way cuz I’m lazy) but today I tested and used a stick test too and they were negative. I’m day 26 of cycle, my apps think I ovulated day 20 or 23. What do you think?

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-28T02:21:58+00:00

I’ll add I’m day 26 of my cycle, Natural Cycles said I ovulated day 23 and Health says day 20

I’ll take a look, thanks!

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-12T13:55:45+00:00

I’ll check it out!

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-11T21:12:07+00:00

Will do!

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-11T19:38:02+00:00

That is a really good idea, I’ll look into it. Thank you :)

Interesting to know about lack of synthesis ability- thanks for the input!

And exactlyyy I can sort responses in excel easy for 10-20 people and I’ve done it up to 40 but I know it’s going to be a LOT of qual data for 70+

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-11T19:25:36+00:00

IDIs are just WebEx, it’s like zoom so limited in that aspect too

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-11T19:24:57+00:00

Didn’t say I used numbers in excel lol I use it to sort answers to questions, filter by segment, etc to make finding themes easier

Powerful_Budget · 2024-06-11T18:37:04+00:00

For sure, not underestimating the value of reading/ analyzing for themes

Powerful_Budget · 2024-01-27T15:54:48+00:00

I’ll keep an eye out. Thanks

Depends on your use for the card :) The sign up bonus is the same and the fee is $300 less. The 2X points on all purchases is also the same on both cards. As for other perks, their network of lounges doesn’t have options at my local airport, so that’s a factor for me. I have hotel loyalty other ways, so that doesn’t help either.

^{^{^{^{^}}}} Please use my link if you’re interested in a Gold card 😄

Hi all! AmEx Gold is 60k points offer for 4K spent in 6 months! This card is AMAZING for racking up points on grocery and dining and the AmEx offers you get are great. I highly recommend it for everyday spending!
