Carnival of Cash Back & Rewards
The Carnival of Cash Back & Rewards was started to gather opinions on rewards programs and bonuses all in one place. First and foremost I advocate responsible spending. Once you have that under control why not take advantage of free and easy money? Read these bloggers opinions on whether or not its worth your time. This week we've got everything from writing contests and government handouts to MyPoint rewards and credit card reviews.
Cashback Credit Card Reviews
Jim presents Citi CashReturns: We Got A $500+ Rewards Check posted at Blueprint for Financial Prosperity. (That's $500+ in one month due to wedding expenses! Way to take advantage of the 5% promotional period, Jim!)
Steward presents Did I Make the Right Credit Card Choice? posted at My Family's Money, (Chase Freedom seems to be the big winner for those with spending habits under $2k per year. Steward estimates that he'll save $422 for one year of regular purchases. Sounds like the right choice to me!)
CreditAddict presents Get 5% Cash Back With Citi CashReturns MasterCard posted at CreditAddict. (Credit Addict links to the card that saved Jim from Blueprint for Financial Prosperity big money above.)
PT presents Prime Time Money » Blog Archive » The Best Credit Card For World Travelers posted at Prime Time Money (PT decides to go with the Capital One No Hassels Card to avoid exhange fees. Sounds like a good decision.)
Raymond presents The Best Restaurant Credit Cards Offering Cash Back and Rewards and My Favorite Reward Credit Cards and Promotions posted at Money Blue Book. (These are both awesome guides to rewards card. I'm definitely going to look into the Fidelity Investment Rewards Card.)
Mr Credit Card presents Cash Back Credit Card Guide posted at Ask Mr Credit Card's Blog.
Rewards
paidtwice presents Maximizing Your MyPoints Rewards | I've Paid For This Twice Already... posted at I've Paid For This Twice Already... (I'm totally new to MyPoints. PaidTwice sums it up and breaks it down :) Great read!)
RacerX presents Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Money: Personal Finance QuickTake: Credit Card Rewards posted at Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Money, saying, "Over 50% of credit card rewards are never claimed! Don't let this happen to you. Stop saving for the moon trip and take the $50 Lowes Card!" (I agree, take what you can get. No reason to pass up free money!)
Balance Transfers and Sign Up Bonuses
FIRE Getters presents $100 bonus from Amex Preferred Rewards Gold Card! posted at FIRE Finance. (Lots of benefits with this card, but I wouldn't want to pay the annual fee after the promotional period is up.)
Raymond presents 0% Balance Transfer Credit Card Offers (New and Updated) and Zero Percent Balance Transfer Credit Cards With No Fees posted at Money Blue Book. (Some great resources if you're in the market for balance transfer deals!)
Other
Michael@TSM presents Travel Writing Contest! Win $150 Cash Prize | Traveling Stories Magazine posted at Traveling Stories Magazine. (Looks like the last contest had 50 entries, those odds aren't bad.)
PT presents I'm Getting a $50 Best Buy Gift Card for Test Driving a Ford posted at Prime Time Money. (If you have the time and you shop at Best Buy anyways, why not?)
