They do periodic bonus offers in addition to the quarterly rotating offers. May was a grocery bonus, July-Aug was London, an ongoing utility offer, etc.

Yes. Pretty much no restrictions or limits at all. 


And if you buy something online, it will stack the cash back. 5% for online + 2% on 10/26 = 7% cash back. And if you buy something online through ShopDiscover on 10/26, you could potentially earn up to 27%.

Yes, it has to post on the 26th. You can also stack for extra cashback... For example if you buy something through shopdiscover on the 26th you'll get the %5/variable (shopdiscover) + %5 (online purchase) + %2 (26th) This gets you a total of %12 cashback
Amex B.C.E. - $2.5k - Amex Everyday - $5k - N.C.F.C.U.M.C. - $5k - Amex Gold - NPSL/35k P.O.T. - Discover It - $12k - Sam's Club M.C. - $10k -

Yeah, remember the transaction has to post on the 26th. Some merchants do not report the transaction until they actually ship the items. Timing is very important for deals like this.
