Q4 offer came today. 10% cash back on Grocery, Gas, and Restaurants. Minimum spend $1,500. Maximum credit $250/month. I don’t think I’ll ever stop using this card for groceries.

Got the same thing. $1500/month is quite a bit higher spend than previous offers for me as it’s per month, not quarter. I’ll probably have to figure out a better way to liquidate gift cards instead of just organic spend if I start going for these…

Looks like I just got the $75 back on $750 spend offer that others got. Came in a month late for me for some reason.

No, you cannot. It was true but myself and multiple others have pointed out that the switch option has been dead since last year. It really should be updated.

Basically all reports I’ve seen here and on other sites have failed. This is just a guess, but I think anybody that got reissued a new card and account number last year or signed up after that aren’t able to product change to TYP anymore. I signed up back in 2018 but was lazy and didn’t get around to try and change it until recently and they said I couldn’t. They reissued my card last November.

Still happy with all the statement credits I’ve been getting though.

50 times? Jeez… is it that serious? Lol I know we love points but at some point what about the value of your time?

It’s against the law for issuers to product change if you have not had the card for atleast 1 year (this is meant to protect consumers from issuers who change terms or bait and switch). DPs should be clear about how long they’ve have the card.

How is everyone getting these offers? My wife has this card but NEVER gets any offers. Do they come via email or snail mail? Anything I can do to try and get some offers? (we did put some random purchases on the card months ago in an attempt to stir the pot, but still nothing)

Superworm How long ago was the card opened? I opened mine about 2 years ago and it took a couple months (8 or 9 I think?) for the offers to start rolling in. I didn’t even put much spend on it, only like $50 at first to meet the signup bonus and then I ignored it for a few months. I got a few via snail mail I think before I switched to paperless and started getting the promos in emails instead.

Thanks for your information. I will be more patient. I’ve got this card for 3 months and got no offer. It looks I need to wait for a longer time.

Sears will never truly go out of business. It’s funny watching other businesses fall and die while sears is still falling and never dying.

Yeah pretty sweet. I have this, the utility 25X and grocery store 20X. So basically I’m looking at 30X utility and 25X grocery the next couple months.
