Is this a sign up bonus code? Or a way to waive your annual fee each year?

Thanks, my bad. Read that completely wrong. Thought Amex GC meant Gold Card at first, for the Premier Rewards Gold. Idiot!

Sorry my apologies. I didn't want it to get lost in the shuffle.

Yes, you can get a rebate in addition to your purchase miles using bigcrumbs, and also if you use United Miles, you van purchase via Mypoints for almost 2500 bonus miles. Sometimes the codes do not work on big crumbs but do on my points. In any case, sign up for the 90 free shipping promo, you will save $8.95 an order.

Cheers!

Fee-Free AmEx Gift Cards (for AmEx spending)

Just got an email that AMEX Gift Cards are fee-free when using Promo Code EMMOTCM2, as long as you use your American Express card. Looks like any gift card can work with that promo code. There are free trials for free shipping to reduce the cost on that front, too. Email says that promo ends 6/30/2012 (even though it's a Mother's Day promotion).

Are Amex GC purchases with your SPG Amex treated as cash advances, with interest accruing from the day you buy them? I want to buy a 3K GC from the Amex site via big crumbs.com with only a 3.95 activation fee and free shipping with that code floating around, but only if I'm not going to be dinged with it being a cash advance.

Can you elaborate a little more of how to do it?
I don't really understand how you get United miles
Thanks

Does anyone know if these purchases are treated as cash advances?

No CA for Amex cards. Citi is another story.
