The Offer
- Citi has sent out targeted spending bonuses on the Citi Sears card:
- Get 10% back on travel purchases (Up to $100 per month) from 7/1 – 12/31
Our Verdict
Should stack with this offer from the start of the year. These types of offers are why this card is listed as the #1 store card.
Only got 5% on these travel & entertainment, do Uber/ Lyft charges counts? Theme park tickets? Thank you!
Theme park tickets definitely count. I haven’t tested ride share.
I’m seeing that offer too in their glitchy offers tab. Says I’m already activated and says I’ve spent $102 of qualified spending so far for this month’s progress, which is even more of a glitch cause I’ve only spent 92 this month, and had a $10 qualifying charge last month along with other qualifying charges last month.
Finally got this offer via snail mail for November and December!
Forgive me, I don’t use the airline loyalty programs.
Do any of those programs allow you to purchase gift cards using CC instead of points?
Do any of those code as travel?
I will test it myself if you can point me to a portal.
Anyone know generally how long the statement credit takes to post?
I wasn’t targeted for the travel statement credit but my experience for the 5% on home improvement statement credits and online shopping credit is that the statement credit posts 1 day after the purchase posts. Probably the same for this one. For the GGR, it takes until middle of following month to post.
Travel Charges: 7/3 and 7/7
Seeing credits for both charges 7/11, might have posted earlier neither had posted as of 7/8. Both have a posting date of 6/29 lol but no activity and exactly match the expected Jul credits.
Does anyone have multiple SYW Mastercards (or a SYW MC & Sears MC)? Is it possible to apply for another?
I don’t think so, unless you are in 2 player mode.
Just as a datapoint, I got this offer. It’s my first offer since I believe the end of 2022, when I had been regularly getting generous offers for years before then.. I had NOT been putting spend on the card recently (I had been until maybe 6 months ago to try and encourage offers.
So to summarize, perhaps if you stop getting offers the right approach is to stop spending for 6 months. Although in my previous experience, once you get offers, it is best to spend a lot so that the offers are even better.
I just got this one and the GGR ($150 off $1000) today. They both came around the same time!
I’ve had this card since February and have only gotten the 0% interest offers before.
Just got this offer via email today. Wild and awesome that this one doesn’t have a minimum spend like the other offers!
mine came in today via snail mail
Ditto
Got this one in snail mail last week and the same offer via email today.
