If my wife were to get the card she could probably meet the spend in 3 weeks instead of 3 months. I hate shopping and other than filling my car with gas and picking up a gallon of milk, upon request, I never go into a store. If it were up to me I'd still be wearing my bellbottoms from college. Additionally I figured if they did come out with a higher points bonus I could always send a SM asking for the point bump. I applied this morning, was instantly approved and should receive the card within 2 weeks. Now I have to figure out how to meet the spend.
