Posts That Caught My Eye Why I’ve stopped stockpiling gift cards from 3rd party sites I am now only buying cards if I have an immediate use. There simply is no reason to purchase a card that you will keep long term since just about every 3rd party site will stop guaranteeing a card after a certain period and there is a ton of fraud. The New Old 5x Method For Buying Gift Cards This is Verizon only, but you can basically buy gift cards and charge them to your phone bill which can then be paid with a card that earns 5X such as the Chase Ink or Amex SimplyCash. I wonder if similar services exist for the other big carriers. T-Mobile Prepaid Visa Card Bites the Dust – Another MS Blow Not much news here for me. I had a lot of trouble with this card when it first launched so I never really used it much, but others found more success. The card is shutting down as of June 27, 2016. Facebook’s 360-Degree Travel Videos Offer Destinations a New Path to Marketing Are these videos life changing? I don’t think so.

Great Deals Staples is still offering $25 off $100+ with Visa Checkout. You can purchase Busch Gardens tickets for $45 each or Sea World tickets for $50 each. A great deal if you have plans to use them before the May 13, 2017 expiration. JetBlue is having a fare sale offering fares as low as $59. Have a great day!
