Targeted Citi Offers 4th Quarter 2021
I just got this in the email:
Anyone else here got this?
Will I earn 5x at convenience stores then? I don't see it in the exclusion list.
You're earning a total of 5 ThankYouŽ Points per $1 spent, up to 2,500 points, now through 12/31/2021 on eligible purchases such as:
- • Shopping at your favorite retailers
- • Consumer Electronic Stores
- • Clothing Stores

Yes, I did as well. The details are kind of vague and I never got any sort of email confirmation that I was registered. I want to charge a significant $ plumbing repair. I have no idea if home improvement services will qualify or not.

Make tiny charges if possible, see how they code, and compare to the terms you have been offered.
Citi is so (intentionally) vague about these kinds of offers that it usually isn't worth the effort for me to really log them / factor them into spending.
I would consider in this case that 'favorite retailers' to be codewords for department stores and that ilk which have competing store cards they want to pry some biz away from.

I guess the bonus offer is spread across Citi's varied offerings since I got it with the AA card. Miles instead of points, of course.

I got this offer for my Premier card (I also have Prestige). It doesn't say if it's online retail shopping (Amazon?) or in-store.
On the same day, I also got an offer for 6x to "Book your Hotel or Car Rental at the ThankYouŽ Travel Center from from 09/01/2021 through 12/31/2021 with your Citi PremierŽ Card. Earn an additional 3 points per $1 spent, for a total of 6 points per $1 spent on eligible booking. I am unlikely to use this one.

Citi Premier and I also have the Citi Prestige, but the email specifically said Citi Premier.
I didn't get it with my Citi AA card.

I just got an offer for an extra 4% (6% total) on my Double Cash card for online purchases, up to an additional $25. I actually had this same offer exactly 6 months prior. Its an easy one to max out, usually I just buy Costco gift cards.
