Increased AF but more couponing, some of which are actually not bad & potentially usable.
Hoping Chase ups their game from their not so useful coupons (& Citi & BoA up their game too)...
Resy is 100/Q
Lulu is 75/Q
Others as in title (+ all prior coupons/credits incl $200 Uber credit split 15qmo except 35 in December)
Benefits live, per many folks...

guess I'm so old & so boring that I had to google "Resy" ... & to think that list isn't worth anywhere near $900/yr ,,, but I guess that is just the new stuff(?)
wait, the Resy credit is for the food itself, not just any Resy Fees? If so, I can see how people would be good with that
But, if you get the credit you prob lose getting any points on the bill, right? (though HHonors just devalued those pts anyway)

The Amex Plat earns Membership Rewards points, not Honors points, but I believe you're correct, you wont earn those on the part of the bill that gets the credit.

In San Jose, where I live, a number of the Resy restaurants are also part of the iDine program, so in my case, I am enrolled in United Dining, and I am pretty sure I will earn United miles on the full value of the receipt, and then get the statement credit as well, so a double dip.

yeah, oops, thanks. So many CC threads, I get lost on which one I am in, and which Amex pertains. I am about as swift at CC shenanigans as I am at The Theory of Relativity ... "Wait? What?" good thing we are a sort of minimalist CC household, which is a funny thing to say, since we must have 8 of them, but you know, half are no fee & just haven't bothered to cancel some yet. got a no-fee I will cancel by December and then cancel her Aspire next April. Just have to get amex to give me an Aspire before cancelling hers

I cannot imagine having another big annual fee card. I don't even know what uber one and Lululemon are.

We do pay a lot for Disney Plus. What other cards give a credit for Disney Plus? Maybe I already have a card that covers the cost, and I should switch the payments to that?

I pay through the nose for that one with Hulu included. I like no commercials, so I chose the more expensive option. I think it's $20 per month, but the ABC TV shows are nice to have, since we have no cable (and no commercials). We have been bingeing on The Rookie and really enjoy it, so far.

Disney has us hooked. The grandkids love to watch their daily shows on Disney. We also binged Everwood, such a good show, One Tree Hill, and we are enjoying Gilmore Girls.

I considered dropping Netflix last month. I have no use for a lot of that content. We subscribed to watch some shows that we enjoyed on cable, like Blue Bloods. Danny (Donny Wahlberg) is moving to Boston to become a detective, and maybe that will be okay. I find it hard to believe that a cop can just move to another city and get a job (never happens in Denver).

I really disliked (even hated) Walter at the end of Breaking Bad. He just became so evil. Ozark was good but another family guy turned bad.

The Equalizer with Queen Latifa is too unbelievable. She is no Denzel. It's almost satire to watch her, especially her ninja moves in slow motion. She obviously has a great stunt double. She is not a bad actress, so that part is good. I like the family dynamic.
