On this week’s “No Annual Fee” podcast we discuss…
0:25 Amex Personal Gold/Platinum Offers through Resy (HT DDG)
- Direct Link to offers
- Personal Gold has standard characteristics (60k welcome bonus, $4k min spend, $250 fee) plus
- 20% back at restaurants first year up to $250 back
- Personal Platinum has standard characteristics (75k welcome bonus, $5k min spend, $550 fee) plus
- 20% back at restaurants first year up to $300 back
- 10x on Gas and Supermarkets up to $15,000 spend for 6 months
- Offers do contain lifetime language
- Platinum offer is even better than even a 25k referral, right?
- But maybe not as good as a +3x referral
- Worth a shot to see if you get the pop-up?

9:45 Stop & Shop: $25 Grocery Voucher for $150+ 3rd Party GC Purchase

If you like these free shows, we think you’ll love the paid shows. They’re longer and much more in-depth. We recently released Episode 100 where we discuss the origin story of Milenomics the blog, our Shop Talk series, and the Milenomics Podcast Network.
This week on the paid show we’ll be discussing:
- Good news/bad news for generating points & miles
- A clawback comeback
- …and cashing out vs. Stockpiling
