Re: Arguing with wife. Please save me!

I fired Chase last year, but for 10% cash back, I'd be willing to take them back Smiley Wink

It's possible that the co worker is getting 10% back on purchases if she's shopping at stores online that the CC promotes.  I know Discover offer more than 5% Csshback at different online merchants. 


I know the 10% applies when shopping online through Chase, but she said EVERYTHING.

 


If everything she buys is in the 10% category then she is right. 

 


She claims no categorise. She said straight out 10% on EVERYTHING.

 


I need that card for gas and food then!

Forget the gas and food.  I would put the company's payroll on my card!  That would be an average of $10,000 cash back every 2 weeks!

you cannot prove a negative so you need to tell her "Well they are not offering it now and no one is offering it so that's life."  It is what it is

That's what the argument started off as but it went a whole different direction.  It's no longer about "I want it" it's now "It's real! She has it!".

Then you need to compliment your wife on how lucky she is to have this cat as a friend and drop it.

Can't this simply be resolved by making a telephone call to Chase and inquiring if this is a card they offer?

Re: Arguing with wife. Please save me!

Hi aftermath,

 

This option is rather gauche, but...

 

The next time your wife wants to make a purchase of oh, say $200, suggest that she ask her friend to make the purchase.  Have your wife write out a check (make sure the memo section notes the details, to CYA) for the purchase, tax, etc. less 10%. 

 

If the friend declines, that may be an indication that she was not being very honest about the discount.  Notice I said "may" - there are many reasons one might not be willing to do such a thing.

 

Just something your wife might consider if she wants to keep pushing the issue.  Steer the conversation away from you, and over to her pal.  Hey, you might get a discount out of it (I doubt it, but this route might be better than arguing in circles). Smiley Happy
