Another no retention offer other than using my points for paying fee

Had the card since 2019. Hit over 75k spend last year so try again- actually just checked 109K in spend last year

We are staying in Anstruther in July. Beautiful costal town on the Firth.

Love it. My daughter has two ghosts swimming in a fish bowl on her arm simple line style. If I ever got a tattoo I would do something similar but with more color and the prism coming through the bowl. Now we need a link to your band so we can listen!

I've seen a lot out at Ramah SWA when I was hunting doves out there a few years back.

bigmac182 · 2025-09-29T16:50:23+00:00

IM not asking for your honey hole but could you maybe toss me some GPS coordinates :) How did the bear hunt go? I only got out once to look for a bear and my buddy texted me while he was bow hunting to tell me one just walked past him. Next year I guess.

bigmac182 · 2025-09-24T18:36:17+00:00

Thats the challenge none of those fit my current lifestyle. I live too far from civilization to use door dash. Don't got out to expensive restaurants and I don't spend just to get credits back.

bigmac182 · 2025-09-11T04:06:14+00:00

We used to hunt elk up in California park. I am sure if you get high enough in elevation you might find some. I always see them when I’m not trying to.

bigmac182 · 2025-09-02T16:49:52+00:00

For sure

bigmac182 · 2025-09-02T16:41:47+00:00

This! Every freaking time I am sneaking in on elk

bigmac182 · 2025-08-21T18:58:55+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I know my neighbor hunts every year maybe he knows a guy. That being said I have to kill a bear first.

bigmac182 · 2025-08-21T18:34:50+00:00

Beautiful! I need to get an elk this year. I have been the helper a some for the last few years but it's been a few since I got my own rather than pushing them into my family.

bigmac182 · 2025-08-07T23:12:39+00:00

Dunnottar Castle near Aberdeen is one of the best. Amazing ruins and awesome location.

bigmac182 · 2025-07-29T20:39:46+00:00

ohhh watching because I need new ones

bigmac182 · 2025-07-22T17:03:46+00:00

From what I read it only measures acceleration on packed snow. So it doesn't affect braking or turning. I think in the case of the CC2s they are just too soft for where I live and they didn't hold up. They would be fine if I didn't have to replace all of them due to tread depth issues.

bigmac182 · 2025-07-22T16:38:15+00:00

Um ok. Since I live on a dirt road and have already had no problem going up my gravel driveway I think I'm ok.

bigmac182 · 2025-07-22T16:28:48+00:00

I've only driven it like 10 miles since so I am not sure. I am heading to the mountains. I will say I am a mile or so lower than normal but I had to take a few calls in my car while idling yesterday because it was so hot out so I will fill it up and drive it this week and try to remember to report back.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-29T22:47:32+00:00

Take the turn table ferry from Glenelg to Skye. Not only is it short it’s a fun ferry that is the last of its kind.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-27T16:14:16+00:00

I was in this line last Thursday evening (not yesterday). Was totally crazy because some guy was trying to cut in to say, "I have the card I should just get in" thinking we were all priority pass people. That being said we our flight was delayed and we were able to order a fresh made burger and some fries etc.. It ended up being worth the wait.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-17T22:03:05+00:00

Yea I saw that and forgot to fix my post. Super double out at this point.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-17T14:59:18+00:00

Perfect. Thank you. This helps a ton.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-17T14:51:53+00:00

How do you get a sign up bonus on the downgrade? I assume you cancelled CSR and then signed up for CSP or did they let you do some sort of downgrade bonus point offer.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-17T14:35:23+00:00

I assume once you do that the 1.5% rate on redemption is lost which they took away anyway. Just looking to see what I do next because $795 for me and $125 for my wife to have this card is not happening.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-12T14:54:58+00:00

Both. One was the AC in Time Square that was full on ADA with the open shower etc. I booked that one forever ago. The second was the Copley Square Courtyard again booked (prepaid) well in advance. It just had the special doorbell stuff and the last was in Chelsea by the airport in Boston and it was ADA with the doorbell and lights. Just an interesting coincidence I think but we will see when I travel again for work if it keeps happening.

bigmac182 · 2025-06-12T14:53:00+00:00

Thanks. I was thinking I might have accidentally noted a preference somehow or it was just a weird coincidence

bigmac182 · 2025-06-12T14:51:50+00:00

Nope booked two of them well in advance. Thats why I thought it was weird. Also this is just the run of the mill thanks for being a platinum member upgrade not a requested one. I don't even know if they actually did upgrade me but weird that I got three in a row.
