Thats a lot of savings!...awesome!! Being a new AMEX card member...i'm starting to see why so many love them.

Indeed, there are more but it gets the point across.  And if you have an authorized user with their own card (or a second card) you can register each of those cards and repeat the offer with that card (but you can only sync one card per facebook/twitter account, each card and/or card user needs a single account to sync the offer with).

 

My Amex savings with various offers have more than paid for the annual fee.

 

Amex Accelerated Cash Rewards. BankAmericard Privileges with Travel Rewards. Amex Blue Cash Preferred. Chase Sapphire Preferred.
Now gardening until 2013. I assume gardening is a metaphor, like "book clubs" where all you do is drink wine.

Yes, but at what cost.  Linking AMEX with Facebook or/and Twitter gives me the creeps.  Way too much information floating around than i'd like.  i could be paranoid, of course. :smileyindifferent:

I thought the same think, but when i was synching my card to the FB it actually takes you to a different window that is AMEX and you're synching through AMEX with FB or whoever...if that makes sense.
