Yeah this round started around Nov 2nd from post upthread, and certainly maxed out by Nov 5th morning.

Didn't appear in Offers for any of my Amex cards, but tweeting #AmexBestBuy worked fine. Managing all these Twitter accounts is a pain though, I need to systematize the logins used for each so I can remember which account goes with which card.

Oh please let there be another of these before Christmas!

From looking at the historical record, Amex seems to do this twice per year, in the summer and in the fall/now. If they keep to that, they likely won't have another.

Also take into account the fact that these offers are good until 31/12/2015. It wouldn't make sense for them to put out another one.

To the issue of Twitter, I was lucky enough to have it on all of my first-party Amex cards, but it wouldn't take hold on two of them. I used Twitter to add those and a third-party card. I only have one Twitter account, so I just unlinked and relinked accordingly, and at the end, I switched it back to the card that's usually attached so that I wouldn't get confused.

Although there's no manual way to get all publicly available offers to appear as with Twitter, I'm fond of Facebook's sync tool. It has been consistent in showing all of the offers that are publicly available, and it even allows you to keep track of previously added offers, just as with the regular Amex site. It also shows the last five digits of the currently linked card.

Yes, Facebook works best for me with a third party card (FIA Amex for example) because there is no other way for those cards to check if offer was added and, as the above poster said, we can see now the last 4 digits of the card linked to Facebook.
Edit to add: and you can have the same card added to both facebook and twitter, so you add offers via twitter and check if they were added via facebook.

It's back! $30 off $300 in a *single* purchase this time around

skitch23

thanks for the heads up! I didn't have this on any of my cards but was able to get it on all four with #amexbestbuy

Got it on 4 of 5 cards! Gonna hit BBY this week to do the laptop trade in deal as well, so between this and trading in 2 old doorstop laptops for $75 BBY GCs each, it should be nearly $230 in profit. Thanks!

I hope I can still find the $200 VGCs so I can buy in sets of 3 pay and with two AXP cards.

You know you are MS addicted, when you get upset because you realize you had not ever registered your wife's biz card for your business, so you only get to do this 11 times, instead of 12......

Found 200s at my local BB. No issue splitting payments over 6 amex cards for 9 VCGs. Cashier did have to ask manger, who said as long as its under 2K no problem.

Is there a link to what the current offer is? Is it $30 off $300 VGC purchase at BB? Only with Amex?

Mamibear

Found them at my BBY, bought 9, paid with six AXPs and fees with 2%CC and got the emails acknowledging I used the offerS

Mamibear

it's $30 off $300 purchase($30 back wyp $300 or more) @ BBY, NOT specific to VGC purchase BUT MUST purchase with AXP CC that has the offer saved to card.

AFAIK, the offer is dead as of yesterday afternoon, it got filled quickly. If you have already saved them, you can redeem offer till exp date.

Keep in mind that if you're doing this deal with an Amex prepaid card, unless you already have a balance on the account you won't be able to auto-load (from the linked debit card) more than $200/day so it won't work b/c the transaction will trigger a >$200 Amex prepaid to debit card transaction.

Dang it! Got it on 3 cards. 4 card is new, just went to sync with Twitter, got dreaded:

"Sorry, max # of Card Members have enrolled in #AmexBestBuy offer."

msp3

Added offer to 4 Amex cards, used 2, now other 2 unused offers have disappeared? Ugh the new Amex website is horrible...
