Welcome to the weekly “Best of Miles to Memories” recap series. Here you will find links to all of the still relevant posts from the past week. We saw a ton of limited time deals that ended quickly this past week. Make sure to subscribe to our daily newsletter so you don’t miss out.
This week was exciting due to some lucrative new credit card offers. Southwest broke the internet with a new annoucement (okay it didn’t break, but it was big). It was a really exciting week for SPG fans as Amex brought back the highest ever offer on their personal card and released a widely circulated offer for spend at SPG. We also covered a new transfer bonus from Amex to Virgin Atlantic and how to navigate Ebay selling issues.
To make the posts in this recap easier to wade through, my “Editor’s Picks” in each section are in bold. If you have questions about anything you read feel free to contact me anytime. Enjoy!
