Obviously, if we learn of another Visa/MC gift card deal before this week's promo ends, I might rethink my strategy.
my thinking also - if you did the visa promo properly then all you are gaining is an extra week of cheap gas, so don't really need much exposure to amex cards. Basically how much gas do you use in 1 week.
Easy enough to burn off the amex on organic spend.
