Congrads to those who wont have to spend near the amount of time Id have to. It was a much better outcome when it was 3x or 5x. Then being Overseas for over 2 weeks in April greatly reduces the amount of gas Id need during the 30 days before the pts expire. End result wont go out of my way to get the GCs but will get 4 (max) if I happen to be passing by a SnS w/o going out of my way
I completely agree. On top of that, I also have to pay 38% interest on my AMEX blue cash credit card that will completely wipe out any saving I get from buying those darn cards.

Move along, nothing to see here...
