Re: Shopping with "points"

I have an Amazon card and get points to spend.  Just recently I ordered a few things for free! 

 

I also have an LL Bean Mastercard.  I have acrued over $280.00 worth of points so I plan on ordering a fresh wreath for the front door this weekend (I did that last year and the wreath lasted a throughout the Christmas season) and maybe some boots for DS & mocs for DH.

@Nightowlz - I hadn't even heard about this.  Durbin was also the Senator who got similar legislation passed about debit cards in 2010, to the detriment of consumers.

 

I have to wonder whose pocket he's in.  JMO!

 

And our elected officials are supposed to be looking out for us?

We accumulate points on our Amazon CC. We save them for Prime Days purchases. $500 worth of purchases for free this year. Who ever came up with this idea of saving points was a very smart marketer.
