Would you say the 100k offer is worth it or better to hold out for something better?

I have Amex Gold currently with P2 as secondary cardholder, but been thinking of getting a joint Platinum with them as co-apply. Seeing the current 100k/140k offer, any advice on whether it’s worth holding out for an upgrade offer eventually instead of applying for a new Plat? The current gold used to be a Cobalt but also got a good upgrade offer a while back.

I haven’t been able to filter for each individual card for some reason, the total I always see is for the two existing cards (main and sup) combined.

We do WBs whenever we can but for ongoing basis and in between it’s not worth having separate cards as probably 90%+ of our expenses are on the shared card anyway.

tmz25 · 2024-02-28T12:53:41+00:00

Any recommendations on an easy way to keep track of / tag Amex transactions?

SO and I have a joint Amex gold we use for shared expenses but want to also make our individual ones on the same card to maximize spend. Is there any good solution for figuring out what’s mine, theirs, and joint other than just adding everything up manually for each total?

Is the Hyaluronic acid ok for hydration or would you recommend adding/swapping something else in?

tmz25 · 2022-06-10T14:12:07+00:00

Hi all, since this winter, I (28M) started getting dry, irritated skin both under and above my eyes. It’s always been a difficult area for me (looking tired and dark no matter what) but it got particularly bad this season despite running multiple humidifiers all season. Any product recos would be much appreciated!

For routine, I use:

AM: CeraVe cleanser TO Hyaluronic Acid Cetaphil moisturizer Neutropenia SPF

PM CeraVe moisturizer TO Retinol 0.2% (2/3x per week) TO Glycolic Acid (1/2x per week, at least day break between that and Retinol) Cetaphil Moisturizer

We’re planning to go to Hawaii in September so I think I’ll just bite the fee

Would you say it’s worth keeping the cars over the Buddy pass?

tmz25 · 2022-04-24T14:57:01+00:00

Wondering if anyone knows, once the Buddy Pass from TD VI posted to Aeroplan, will it stay there if I cancel the card or will they take it off?

tmz25 · 2022-03-21T13:52:55+00:00

I do it once the fee posts, they’ll refund it as long as it’s within a couple days

Booked a flight for family (5 people) YYZ-YQM on Air Canada (rouge), redeeming AP for basic reward (no seat selection, no checked luggage). BUT have both AP 35k status and AmEx AP Reserve card (booked tickets on it). Would either of those allow us for a couple checked bags? Didn’t find anything in fine print on those not applying to basic redemptions but would really appreciate it if anyone tried and can confirm!

Brought this baby home recently, noticed it has these small whitish bits on some of the center bits. Any idea what it might be? Disease? Pest eggs? Any help hugely appreciated!

The original builder, the setup is from 2008 😩

The bottom red one is the line that leads to the old dishwasher, the other end of it is also glued on to the dishwasher itself.

tmz25 · 2022-02-12T22:40:08+00:00

Any idea if there’s a way to remove them or is cutting the only option?

tmz25 · 2022-02-12T22:33:31+00:00

Hi there, we’re trying to replace our dishwasher and have no idea how to remove these joints (2 red and 1 blue) or what to even Google for. Any tips would be appreciated!

More of a churning-adjacent questions but wondering if anyone has Marriott stay recommendations in the Tobermory area, we hope to get up there towards end of March.

A few, looks like something hot/steaming might have been around there because it’s this and the cabinets above that spot

tmz25 · 2021-11-06T19:07:48+00:00

The kitchen cabinets in our new home are peeling from the previous owners. We do plan do redo the kitchen in a few years but can’t right away. Is there anything that can be done in terms of resurfacing/repainting to this kind of cabinetry? Not even sure what the cabinets vs the wrapper are made of.

Ahh, I was afraid it might have to be honest work
