Ok, so like I said before, my main points earning strategy is earning bonus points through the Chase Ultimate rewards Mall. There are a bunch of online retailers there. The number of bonus points per dollar varies by retailer and those numbers change frequently. Most offers are between 1 and 3 bonus points. However, sometimes retailers offer gobs of points to shop their site. Today Magazine.com was one of those sites. They are offering a whopping 40 bonus points per dollar spent. 40 POINTS!!! I can't just pass that up, so I bought a subcription. I happen to be a fan of those gossip magazines at the check out and regularly spend $3+ a shopping trip to find out all sorts of pointless info on people who really shouldn't matter to me at all. My subscription cost $33 and my purchase will give me 33 regular points plus 1320 bonus points. That's a big 1353 points for a $33 spend! No too shabby!
I also snagged another 20 Hawaiian miles with the tool bar. I spent 24 at a restaurant. Did I mention that you get double miles with the Sapphire card at restaurants, so that is 48 points. Plus I spent I spent another 25 out and about.
Grand total for the day....... 1446.
Not to bad.
I don't do affiliate links (yet!). This is a link to find the Chase Sapphire card. The link takes you to FrugalTravelGuy.com and the offer is all over his site. He's my points hero and he'll make a few bucks if you sign up through his site. In the past three years, I have learned enough from him to earn 16 free airline tickets. Really, he's a free travel ROCK STAR! You should definitely be reading him if you want to learn to fly free.
