I use my AGR credit card for just about every purchase, be it gas (of which I don't use much, maybe 20 gallons/month), food, and all my bills, as well as miscellaneous purchases. I only wish I could talk my landlord into accepting credit cards for rent! :lol:
I notice that 1-800-Flowers.com has a limited time offer: 25 points for every $1 spent. All I can say to that is Happy Mother's Day, Mom!!!! :lol:
By using the Buy Points option, especially now that there is now no $15 surcharge, and with my usual spending habits, I earn enough for a 2-zone roomette trip each year. Next year, right after the first of the year, I plan to buy the whole entire 10,000 point maximum limit at one time. At my place of employment, you get five sick days a year, and if you don't use them, you get a year-end check for the days you don't use. Since I never miss work and wouldn't use sick pay if I did, it amounts to a nice Christmas bonus....far larger than the $275 needed to purchase that many points. What a great Christmas present to myself......purchasing bonus points!!! That 10,000 will put me well over the amount needed for a 2-zone bedroom award. Where to go next year???? :lol:
