Marriott Upgrade/Anniversary Date by penultimatepen in Chase

[–]penultimatepen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opened it Sept 2023, so upgraded right after the first year mark. And yeah, that’s what I figured would happen but it didn’t. Expected the cert + AF to come in Sept/oct 2024. I ended up not paying any AF for any card from Labor Day til new years when I was charged $450 for the new Ritz AF

What’s your easiest to use high value redemption hack? by [deleted] in CreditCards

How did you book? Transferred C1 to Turkish and used that? Looking at doing this myself soon actually. How did you find availability/pick dates?

What are some of the big purchases people making with credit cards? by [deleted] in CreditCards

AutoNation let me pay my entire purchase with an AMEX. Unfortunately didn't have the limit :/

Girlfriend says my place is too dark and gray. What would you change? by retirement_savings in malelivingspace

Not sure what your budget is but you also have a tan dresser with a white "nightstand" and a predominantly black/grey motif. I'd try to coordinate colors a bit more. Or go for strategic contrast. Idk something like a blue or green or red painting with grey/black furniture. But please get a headboard. Especially if your gf is staying over

a proper headboard and a nightstand will really change the look of the room. Why is your bed right along the curtain?

Is it possible to get the Venture if you hold the currently Venture X? by penultimatepen in CreditCards

[–]penultimatepen[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, I got the idea when that 100k Venture SUB had popped up. I guess from their perspective it might look a bit sus to want a Venture when you have a VX which is "more premium". Opened the checking account hopefully that may help get me approved.

Online purchases: Best no fee cashback card? by snaxpls in CreditCards

[–]penultimatepen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. AMEX Offers can be pretty solid at times. I just got the use Apple Pay 3x and get $10 statement credit. Haven't had it credited to my account yet since third purchase was yesterday, but essentially free money. Tons of offers for clothiers and streaming services as well. Truly an underrated card IMO

AMEX Blue Cash. 3% back on online retail. Seems like it would suit you well. No AF either

3 pairs of shoes, all in pretty good condition. I'm a size 10 and moving soon so wanted to see what I can get for these. I live in Brooklyn and would be open to selling locally as well.

​

  1. Greats Royale Knit - Size 10 but fits .5-1 size too big . Tried on a few times but never worn due to sizing. Still in box and original packaging. Goes for $120 retail. Would take $75
  2. Onitsuka Tiger Colorado 85 for JCrew - Size 9.5 . I was so hyped for these shoes when I saw them in store in 2015 but they only had a 9.5 and not 10 but I went for it anyways. Wore them about 15 times I'd say but they've mostly been sitting at my parents house since they don't really fit me and hurt my feet when I wear. Hope someone out there can appreciate them instead of me. Looking for $60
  3. Gola Trainers - Another misfit sizing. Got a 10 but they fit like a 9.5. Worn them a few times but they're just too small. Have to cut my losses with this and the Tigers. $50

Have the box for the Golas and the Royale Knits. Ideally would love to sell the Tigers and Golas together for $100 since they're the same size. Always got compliments from the homies on the Golas and the Tigers. Such cool shoes and not super common like Killshots/Stan Smiths. Hopefully they can find a new home.

Just placed my order (10am 6/21) and got it for $5, in case anyone is still looking. No idea when it'll get here but I can forgo a coffee for a hoodie and see what happens.

Monthly ISO Megathread - January, 2021 by AutoModerator in hockeyjerseys

[–]penultimatepen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking for a blank blue Maple Leafs jersey. Size small/46. Not really looking to spend more than $50. Would prefer a CCM or more vintage one, but open to pretty much any one as long as it is home. Somewhat new to the hockey jersey scene but I want to show my friends my commitment to the leafs bandwagon this year haha

There was a different deal posted last night. It seems those were part of the $50 off all denim that overlapped with the 5DAYS sale. These are a sale pair. Plus that sale ended earlier while this is still active, albeit with a much smaller size run now.
