@CreditBloke, thanks for posting. My wife just got this offer as well and we just finished one for the end of June! This card ends up being quite good given all the 10% and 15% offers!

Yeah, I think it may be one of the best cards I have. I just had two 50 back when you spend 750 for the last two months (one in May and one in June), which is like a 6.2 % return rate. I had to pay my car insurance in June and do car maintenance in May, so they were pretty easy to do.

 

Does anyone know if reloading your Starbucks card on the Starbucks app is considered a restaurant for this card? I know it is for the Capital One Savor, but is it coded that way for all MCs?

Re: New Sears SYWR MC Promo

I do not know or understand how Citi makes money.

My offer is minimum $750 spend up to $1000 = 15x TYP + the original 1 earned.

 

$1000 in grocery/restaurants = 16,000 points = $160 = 16% cash back for 3 months. 

Citi/Sears hasn't earned a penny from me in interest in 20 years ... but in the last two years I've gotten well over $2000 in credits. It's insane but I'll take it Smiley Happy

Re: New Sears SYWR MC Promo

Mine says that I have to spend $1500 a month for 10%. That's too much! My last 6 months they gave me 15% and only $500 spend. Guess it's back to Discover!! Screenshot_20210702-000154.jpg

@MoneyBurns, upon closer inspection, I received the same offer that you did. Like you, I am unsure if I can organically spend $1,500 in a month for the three categories specified and I would hate to have only spend $1,200 and not get the 10%.

I just got this same offer via snail mail.   Citi does not email me promotions on this card, only via US Mail.

I still have some spend left to meet a different active promo that runs until the 19th so I'll be able to double-dip for part of this month's spend.

Would that different active promo be one where you get 5000 bonus ThankYou Rewards points with over $500 in spend?  I'm just curious.  (I received the offer I just described and it runs until 7/19.)
