Konrad2012 Posted December 23, 2014 I never hear anyone talk about the Amex Offers that is the little tab on the bottom of your personal portal page. The other day there was a $5 statement credit for a $30 Shell gas purchase on my biz Pt. Today for my personal PRG there was a $25 statement credit for any $50+ purchase at Paul Martin's American Grill. Definitely worth checking out every couple of weeks, they have some smoking deals.

cv91915 Posted December 23, 2014 I use these offers all the time. I've saved $220 on my SPG alone this year... plus I used the $50 off $250 promo code for allmodern.com at least 4 or 5 times before it expired. I check for new offers at least twice a week...

mendelssohn Posted December 23, 2014 I used that Shell offer the other day. The best offer I've gotten this year was spend $20 at Amazon and get $20 back. I bought a $20 Amazon gift card. I've gotten a few hundred dollars back this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Konrad2012 Posted December 23, 2014 I'd tell you to check out the Paul Martin's, but I don't think they've made it to SD yet. Paul Martin's is Paul Martin Fleming, the guy who started Fleming's Steakhouse, but he cannot use his last name anymore. Great food, great wine list, great happy hour Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mendelssohn Posted December 23, 2014 I check these every so often and have yet to find a single offer I could use. $20 off of $20 spend on Amazon didn't meet your needs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

funkiehouse Posted December 23, 2014 I use them too. When there is a really good on I usually see a post about it, if I'm in the mood to spend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TexasRN Posted December 25, 2014 I have to wait for gas prices to go back up to use the Shell one. Ive had it loaded for weeks, but my last few full tanks were ~$27. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
funkiehouse Posted December 26, 2014 I just got one on my BCE for $10 off $75 or more on your AT&T mobile bill. Looking like I'll be paying the next bill with my BCE. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cactus Flower Posted December 26, 2014 I check these every so often and have yet to find a single offer I could use. I would find myself just buying stuff to get the deal. I am happy ? to announce that my car won't even hold $30 in gas these days + Shell is expensive (at least around here). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whipster Posted December 27, 2014 Used the shell, toysrus, and wally. 15 buckos for just buying stuff I woulda bought anyway. Oh, got the 50 bucks and the free Prime too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nht Posted December 27, 2014 I have to wait for gas prices to go back up to use the Shell one. Ive had it loaded for weeks, but my last few full tanks were ~$27. Ha, unintended consequences of plunging oil prices... If you have like a 2-gallon gas can around, throw it in the hatch / trunk before your next fill-up.

HoustonLynne Posted December 27, 2014 This is sad. I'm going to lose a Walmart Amex offer if I don't use it by the 30th, and I've spent the past hour on their website trying to justify making a purchase just to use it. I give up for tonight. Maybe I'll be more irrational and impulsive tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Konrad2012 Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) That's crazy...oil companies are usually way more competitive than that disparity. I bought Shell regular for 2.79 at Fashion Island. I've seen it for 2.49 at Arco. I would have had to drive out of my way several miles and paid debit. For the loss in mileage/time I wouldn't waste my time for 13 gallons. That 5.99 diesel is the highest I've ever seen. Only in America is diesel more expensive than regular...let alone premium. And its the reason we don't see the awesome 1.6L to 2.0L diesel motors from Germany and Japan. Edited December 27, 2014 by Konrad2012 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Civiljudgements Posted December 27, 2014 OP, sorry to continue off topic. I paid $1.83 for regular unleaded here in the warm and rainy Midwest yesterday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cv91915 Posted December 27, 2014 Premium was $2.89 at the local San Diego Chevron yesterday - after the 20 cents/gallon Vons Club discount. I filled up at one of the more expensive places near my house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I filled up at one of the more expensive places near my house. We got gas at Shell for $2.41 with our .20 off from out Ralphs card. Filled up out Acadia for $42, where during the summer in Chicago it costs $90 to fill it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FromGoodtoGreat Posted December 27, 2014 The lowest I have seen here in central, MS is 1.85 at Walmart and the highest that I have seen is 2.00. I use my Walmart card and get .05 cents off every gallon. So 1.80 isn't bad at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
