Anyone doing the free passport photos at Staples today? My kids all need to renew so it’s good timing, but I can’t find the coupon in the app. Anyone know where to look? Edit: found it. Also called and found out you can only get one per passcode, so you need each person to download the app.

Oops, just edited my post. Meant to say Feb 2026.

DH is planning a trip to Thailand in Feb 2025. He's flying on his own from Boston (meeting up with friends in Thailand), so just one biz class seat needed. Time to start accumulating the points. From a very quick search, I’m thinking AA miles for JAL. Anyone done Thailand on points? He has a...

Yes, you can combine the points with his Ink (CIC,CIU or preferred, just not Premier). If you look through the menus when you’re in the rewards section, you’ll see “combine points” (someone else might be able to chime in with better detail on where it is - I always have to hunt around and they...

Thanks so much!

I remember a while back people using a Rental Property as their business were getting denials from Chase. Has that changed? My sister is going to apply for a CIP and that is what she would use as a business, wanted to be sure there still weren't issues going on with that category. Thanks!

I’m thinking it’ll at least be different than what I’m used to, being from New England. For instance will I see a cactus along the way?

I'm going to Miraval Resort in AZ in January - booked for myself and my sister with Hyatt points (URs transferred)! I'll be flying into Phoenix airport and driving to Tuscon. I've never beeen to AZ and am planning on doing a scenic drive. From what I found online it looks like route 60 to 79 to...

I think our 12-year olds would get along well. A monitor, keyboard and chess set were the only things I already had on the list. Last year he got a Godzilla poster. 😂

Time for my annual - what to get a 12-year-old boy for Christmas that isn’t a computer game related gift card? Any suggestions?

Any tips on pullng the 50K BBP offer? All I'm seeing is a 15K SUB. EDIT: Nevermind - I got the 50K offer through a link on DOC and was approved! 75k would have been nice, but 50K is better than 15K and I wanted to apply now before cancelling my other Biz cards.

So glad I asked here before applying. I’ll be going for the BBP! Thanks so much for the advice!

I’m cancelling a couple of Amex biz cards soon (Biz gold and Marriott), I’ll still have a personal gold, but would like to have a no fee keeper card in the mix. Figured I should apply before I cancel the others to help avoid the pop-up. I’m thinking blue cash everyday. I just dropped to 2/24 so...

Thanks for the advice! I hadn’t thought about getting the December credit too - but will definitely hit staples Dec 1. Unfortunately there are no longer ANY office depots in MA.

I used my Amex gold Biz at staples yesterday (11/24) for the $20 credit - total spent was $55. Realized today that the $295 AF posted on 11/22. Due date is 12/17. I plan on cancelling the card. I haven’t received the office store credit before. Am I reading that it takes about a week to come...

Same drill.

I did the premier and the plus in 2021 - they just dropped off my 5/24 count. Nice when it drops by 2 at the same time!

Anyone have experience with travel insurance on a school trip? My daughters school is doing a trip to Australia in June 2025 through Explorica. They offer travel insurance for $388 - the trip is around $6000. If I use my CSR to pay for some would she have coverage? Or could I buy insurance...

I'm trying to figure out a plan for April vacation 2024. I'm in MA and my three kids (15, 14, 12) have the week of April 14 off. I have URs, MRs,, Marriott points and Hilton. But can't figure out a plan. I'd like to stay in the US for this vacation, but don't know where to go. We've done a lot...
