Just got an email for this today. It is good until August 31.
Right now, get a 100% annual fee rebate and 15,000 miles on your first purchase with CIBC Aerogold Visa. So annual fee waived first year and 15k miles with one purchase. No minimum spend requirement. |

Yes, same-ish but this one goes until August 31, not June 28th as that one does. And that one has a $500 minimum spend to get the 15,000 whereas mine only says 'on your first purchase'. Not that $500 is a big deal but...

That one doesn't have spend for the 15,000 points but rather a $500 spend for the annual fee rebate. Nice find, though.
Oh well, I do all the spending anyway :p |

A great deal is using your Alaska Airlines miles on American Airlines. They discount mileage to Europe Oct. 15 - March 15th for 40,000 miles instead of the usual 60,000 miles You can also obtain both a personal Choice Privileges credit card and business Choice Privileges credit card. This is currently worth 24,000 points plus 24,000 points for a total of 48,000 points. Choice usually has a promotion going where you earn 8,000 points after staying at a Choice hotel twice. Check their website for specific details. The real value is using these points for hotel stays in Europe. A 225 euro rate for a hotel room in Rome can be reserved for 10,000 points. Thats 1 Euro equals about $1.40 Canadian. Aeroplan miles are very difficult to redeem so I only use it when collecting points at Esso, Home Hardware, etc. |

sailingman22 had posted about successfully obtaining 2 Choice cards, one for personal and one for business. I believe it's the same card. It would not be unheard of for MBNA to consent to issuing 2 of the same card to a cardholder. |
Choice Privileges busines credit card
There is no application that I know of for a business card. I called MBNA and requested a second Choice Priveleges Credit Card saying I was going to use it for business rather than personal. They took part of the credit limit from my first Choice CC and used it for my new "business" card. I think both now have $4,000 limits which is fine with me since I only use them for booking Choice branded hotels.
I did not see any spending or pay for staying requirements on their new promotion but I still did a purchase and paid for a stay just in case. The 24,000 miles are waiting to be posted later this month. My wife applied for her second Choice cc and was accepted. She is now waiting to receive the card and use it to get 24,000 points. |

EDIT: Further, affiliate links may come out for this offer, like they did for the 50K offer, after a few days. If that's the case, GCR should have the offer in addition to their normal $60 rebate. EDIT 2: My response was to the analysis in the blog entry linked to in the earlier post, that mia rightfully removed. In summary, 60K BW points could be worth 12K miles, or $225 Wal-Mart GCs - the latter would be my preference. |

Ah, I didn't read it that carefully. Like I said, $500 isn't really a big deal anyway but if you don't plan to really use it, one small purchase is even better. I applied and will cancel before the annual fee is due next year. I just read that the fee for the additional user is waived too if you add them at the time of application. I didn't add my husband in but wish I had. The fee isn't waived if you add a user later :(
Oh well, I do all the spending anyway :p BTW the equivalent link (i.e. no minimum spend, Aug expiry) for the AeroGold (non-Infinite) is https://www.cibc.com/cc/en/agoffer/?tid=2013383# and for AeroGold biz is https://www.cibc.com/cc/en/asboffer/ (need to figure out the relevant "tid"). |

I don't see anything in the small print about minimum spend. The $120 fee is rebated back, rather than refunded, so you'd need to apply the rebate to your spending. I read that to be the minimum spend is $120. |

It certainly depends on how much you value 12000 miles... if you value them at 1cpm, it actually might be better getting the 225 walmart gc's and then liquidating them for cash.
To sum up, here are the alternatives: 60,000 Best Western points = • 2 to 3, maybe 4 Best Western hotel nights, OR • $225 in gift cards (with 1,500 Best Western points left over), OR • 12,000 Aeroplan miles now, OR • 14,000 Aeroplan miles if you can wait... and if Aeroplan runs another top-up offer in the future. Important: $2,000 minimum spend required, within about 2 months tops, to get all 60,000 BW points Link to application: https://www.applyonlinenow.com/CACCa...=CPOX&lc=en_CA More discussion about points alternatives in this forum: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/air-c...cc-no-fee.html |

Is this 'tid' unique per application? I.e. can multiple signup using the same exact offer link and still be eligible for the promotion?

We used points for a 5 night stay in Denver for our daughters wedding which was free. However, this year we are using our points for hotel stays in Rome, Venice, and Paris. Choice hotels in Europe usually reduce the number of points per night from 25,000 or 20,000 to 8,000 to 10,000 per night in the fall. Check the Euro rate at these hotels and you will know why to save your points.
It makes a wonderful trip affordable. |

You gotta spend $2000 to get the 60,000 points though, basically in three months by the time you get the card too.
Very good point on the Best Western Rewards MasterCard, eville. Thank you. I've edited the wiki. I think the rewards make it worth the churn. But $2000 is not a small hurdle for some, and a little bit of planning in advance can really help make that spend easier. So, to get the full 60,000 points ($225 value), you have to: apply for the card, wait, receive the card, spend $1,000 by July 31 (maybe a few days early to be safe), and then have spent another $1,000 by August 31. |
Great Canadian Rebates has a $60 rebate for the Best Western Card, but their link to Best Western shows the 20,000 points rather than the 60,000. I'm wondering if I should hold off applying for a few days in case GCR updates their link to include the 60,000 offer.

My wife & I both obtained the Alaska Airlines CC about 3 years ago and have used the credit card and the companion ticket for each card yearly. This card comes with an initial bonus of 25,000 miles. We both applied for an additional Alaska Airlines credit card and received the same benefits as the original card with 25,000 miles and companion ticket.
Note: you will be charged the yearly fee for each card you receive and it appears that you need to wait 2 years between obtaining your first Alaska Airlines MC credit card and the second MC card. Check the Alaska Airlines website for details. |
FYI, I received a no fee/no spend required CIBC aerogold visa offer in the mail. It's targeted, but it's worth keeping an eye out for.
