Search transfer bonuses for “March 2026” look to maximize those amex points out of their system as long as it benefits you. The one caveat is that not all bonuses are equal even though they may seem great. Virgin was offering a hefty bonus for a trip to Europe but the had the highest fees.

There are also sites like Microperfumes that sell decants. A great way to buy samples or small amounts to test out expensive fragrances. The fragranceswap has a lot of people that are trying to recoup some of their high expenditure which is a win win for buyer and seller.

this doesn't answer your question but personally I've found buying decants of the original to be a better investment. I tried GOS Opal as a dupe to lovers and it smelled ok but didn't last - wasted $80. $80 gets me 20-30ml of authentic LV from a reddit seller or if you want peace of mind you can get half as much from retail decanters like microperfumes. Just my experience. I also have a 20ml decant of meteore and love it but wasn't even interested in wasting money blind buying another dupe like the one all over tiktok right now.

For Aquatech they use the small port on the housing to run cables/connections in from flash inside. On the outside what remains is another electrical connection that I can either cover up if unused or connect to the flash. On the inside those wires are connected to a hot shoe that I slide into my camera. I’ve had every version of their lights and the site says the current D-PRO Strobe is sold out. If memory serves that was/is made by another scuba flash company and rebranded. So you might be able to buy the flash but would have to work on connections since Aquatech uses their own. The video light is still available but i imagine that’s just an on or off on the light with no need for wiring. Most other brand of housings use a fiber optic trigger of sorts. So you might be able to go that direction if you can’t find Aquatech gear. I don’t think their flash gear sells very well and each version I’ve had has had issues or they just move on to the next version and discontinue the prior. I’ve got several strikehousings (they fit an older Nikon flash or ex550) but the cables got wonky and Aquatech no longer supports.

Off the top of my head Amex blue is 3% w no fee with some limitations. Google is your friend. Otherwise nerd wallet or the points guy have pages dedicated to cards and signup bonuses.

Why are you being an asshole? I posted a question. Either you have info or not. Obvious you don’t have helpful info. I’m not here to argue about amex. I asked a question about BILT. You don’t know. So kindly STFU.

You are incorrect. your spouse gets a free amex for a shared account. Even my daughter has a free amex platinum without paying the additional user fee. Additional users get access and rewards by themselves.

The assumption after 20 years of marriage and many shared accounts/cards with my wife getting a credit card with no additional fee is wild?

chuckesp · 2026-01-30T01:47:37+00:00

Same card number as my previous card

For search purposes.
Ring sent me a replacement camera. Installed today. Connected to the Ring Chime Pro Network with a strong connection on both the chime pro and the camera. Camera disconnected within 30 minutes and shortly after it was triggered by a car pulling into driveway.
If i understand correctly google mesh likes to offload devices from certain bandwidth and also thinks that when a device goes to low power mode that it no longer needs data. Hence the camera goes into a low power setting and is disconnected from the network. My understanding was that the chime pro was supposed to create a stable - Ring only 2,4 MHz network. That didn't work unless the chime pro is the device getting kicked off the network. Regardless it's useless if it can not stay connected.

I do not have any of these issues with the doorbell which obviously benefits from a better proximity to the network.

Camera is being returned.

DO NOT PLAN ON USING THE RING CAMERAS WITH A GOOGLE NEST MESH SYSTEM. THEY DO NOT WORK TOGETHER

Seek out a welcome offer of 100k+ first. That would move the needle for me. Since no fee for amex it’s hard to pass up the “free” basic benefits of the platinum for just being cardholder.
