    Bathroom renovation

    We are going through the same thing right now, he started with the demo one week ago and there is dust EVERYWHERE. I think when the project is finished, we will hire someone to come professionally clean the entire house. We live in a 100 year old home in a historic district and our master bath...

    Sigh, I sent a SM and got a reply that I will need to call. Is the possibility of getting $54 back worth the phone call? That is the question lol... I loathe those types of calls. We'll see how I feel tomorrow.

    Thank you, I did this and attached the receipt from Home Depot showing when I placed the order. I'll update when I hear back from Chase!

    Let me just vent for a minute! I had several Chase offers for Home Depot 10% back. I placed an online order for a tub and fixtures, we are redoing our master bath, it's down to the studs. Well apparently HD doesn't process the charge until the order is shipped/picked up in store. The tub is...

    Trying to decide if I should downgrade my AMEX BCP to the BCE. I got it March 2023 and my AF just hit last week. It's $95 and I know I more than recoup that with 6% cash back on groceries for the firs $6K spend. Which BTW I forgot about the 6K limit last year which I hit back in Oct., but still...

    Thank you for this, I will have to some planning! I wonder if having a day or two stopover in Madrid would be included?

    Cash price of $160 is basic economy. I have the United card though so at least get free luggage.

    Looking for advice, we are going to Cancun for a 3 night long weekend in May. United has one way flights for 11.8K miles + $48, or a cash price of $160. I can transfer URs from Chase, but we’re going to Japan in 2025 so I’m thinking I should save those points. Thoughts?

    Would you ever go on a Disney Cruise?

    There is a hotel here in Ohio that does this, they host a "Land Cruise" several times a year for 3-4 days. All food and non-alcoholic drink provided along with shows, comedians, etc. It's definitely marketed to the older crowd, but from the photos I've seen on FB they all look like they're...

    We stayed at Hyatt Zilara in Cancun and LOVED it! It was pre-Covid though so I don't know if anything has changed.

    April Fools Day

    Our anniversary is March 31. We eloped in St. Thomas so it didn't really matter what day of the week or anything, I was pushing for April 1 because I knew no one back home would believe us, but he didn't want that for our anniversary date.

    Amex Plat fee posted 3/20, I chatted today to see about a retention offer, I was transferred to a specialist who gave me the rundown of the card benefits, I said I like the lounge access but wouldn't be traveling as much this year and was disappointed that Audible was no longer a digital credit...

    Sounds like you've already found a place, but I travel to Atlanta for work about once a month, usually just an overnighter and always stay at the airport Hilton. They always accommodate my requests for a high floor, corner room and the bar has very good old fashioneds lol. Priorities!

    I had those offers on a few cards a few months ago and used them. I got 2 yesterday but now mine are spend $150 get the $15 back. Not quite the incentive that it previously was.
