Good afternoon everyone. Earlier today, I wrote Dilemma: Spend $15,000 on Chase World of Hyatt Credit Card to Earn Extra Free Night Certificate? In that post, I mentioned that I did a mini App-O-Rama. I applied for 4 cards and was instantly approved for 1: the American Express Gold Card. Hopefully the 3 other pending credit card applications come back as approved. I will keep you posted on those results in the next few weeks. Anyway, I liked the American Express Gold Card for the juicy sign up bonus (spend $2,000 in 3 months and get 50,000 Membership Rewards Points), 4x Membership Rewards Points on restaurants & grocery, and the $100 airline fee credit. I am not very excited about the $250 annual fee or the $10 monthly dining allowance. I'm hoping I can swing by a Cheesecake Factory every month and get a $10 gift card or a slice of cheesecake to go.
