Articles

Here are the articles for this edition:

Boxed is launching a free-shipping membership program – Business Insider

I don’t know how this will fly but it seems like they are trying the Amazon Prime route for household goods…without the entertainment.  As you know me and Boxed are not friends after they broke up with me, but I still wouldn’t see myself getting this.  Their prices aren’t that competitive without Amex offers anyways.

Uber Jumps Into Dockless Bike Sharing With Latest Acquisition – Fortune

I guess you could say I am skeptical here.  Could this be the next big thing or is Uber just burning more money they don’t really have?

Chick-Fil-A is Coming to the Las Vegas Strip – Vital Vegas

Speculation so far but I am sure it would be one of the busier locations in the US.  And if it is open on Sundays, as speculated, that would be shocking.  Hopefully you got in on the calendar cards so you can save some money while eating at the new Vegas location!

Points Transfer Calculator – Travel Codex

A new tool created by Scott that is worth checking out.

Ellis Island Gears Up To Debut The Front Yard – Vegas Eater

Awesome news for anyone who likes to find bargain deals on vacation like I do.  This is one of my favorite spots in Vegas for a good meal on the cheap and this expansion looks pretty awesome.  Too bad it won’t be done in time for Zork Fest!
