Love the whats in my wallet videos!
Yay Mandy!
I have the exact same wallet, I carry my ID, Costco citi credit card, debit and Kaiser card. I’m thinking of opening the chase sapphire card, but I have yet to make that call. Soon enough though.
Would love to see your travel vlogs
2 answers to two questions:
1. See videos of past trips? Yes – a few, not many. Always good to get ideas / inspiration. Typically take several months to plan anyway; ie: doing the research, options etc so getting ideas is great. Maybe not published at a takt time as in the past, but do publish them. Getting a trip to Sint Maarten lined up for December hopefully .
2. What's in my wallet: a) American Express Blue Business Plus (BPP), b) American Express Gold, c) Barclays AAdvantage Aviator (Red)
a. Amex BPP: Always gives me 2x points on all purchases. Only using for Lowe's at the moment for the past 2 months. On top of my Veteran discount of 10%, American Express BPP is giving me an additional 10% discount through the month of June (this started back in December I think) and on top of that, an additional 1x membership reward through December 2020.
b. Amex Gold: Easy for supermarket and restaurant (although restaurant is limited atm) spend. I can easily justify this card and works to be the best for me. As well, the $10 per month Grubhub credit … I do pickup.
c. Barclays AAdvantage Aviator: My backup card (atm) for when American Express is not accepted. However, it has replaced my Amex BPP for the past 2 months since Barclays gave me a points boost on all purchases. At the moment, I'm getting more back with Barclays on the following purchases: 1) everyday spend – besides Lowe's as noted above and 2) and purchase of airline tickets should I book / pay with American Airlines. Otherwise, the Amex Gold is better with the other airlines.
Yes post the videos. We need the content!
My quarantine wallet is basically all the cards that includes bonus multipliers for groceries and dining (AMEX Gold/Chase Freedom for points, or Blue Cash Preferred for cash back). Any non-bonus spending is either Blue Business Plus for 2x points, or Citi Double Cash for cash back. Ya, it is kinda strange but it's always a good idea to have a backup Visa or Mastercard in case lol.
The Freedom will stay in my wallet throughout the Summer since it does include 5x at Whole Foods for Q3 2020 (use it over the Amazon Prime Visa card solely for UR points).
yes trip report please!!!
We need to see your travel vlogs so that when travel restrictions are lifted and the pandemic is over we have a gameplan 😉
I am going to use Amex Platinum for Best Buy (2x the points) and other random purchases that do not earn me a bonus, Amex Marriott Bonvoy for Steam, USAA for Gas, and Chase Freedom for Amazon (for Q3 2020). I would love to see the Travel Vlogs.
Yes put the travel videos. We are all dying to see something travel. I applied for the CS platinum to get those benefits
In my wallet: CSR (groceries), BBP (sub), Hawaiian (sub). Post the videos, I enjoy watching hotel and flight reviews. It gives us something to look forward too.
Publish it please :). 1 It give us planning time, 2 I would like to see other places than what's inside my room.
Please post them travel vlogs! With tips on how to fix itinerary and booking with points:) 😊😊
Yes publish I want to see where I could potentially go once this ends.. tired of rona/stimulus checks videos
Yes, please publish the travel videos !😄
I would also like to see the travel/point videos. There isn't much content to watch right now and I'm sitting on 200k of Chase UR points.
For items $300, is it worth paying with Amex Plat to secure purchase protection?
Let us travel vicariously through your videos until we can do it again. I would put something in there that's it was taken prior to covid 19 though
No release the videos please I need some travel in my life
Publish it
Hey Mandy! I was wondering if product change options still exist for Marriott cards into the Ritz Carlton card. I always wanted that card but I’m wondering if you could still get it via product changes? 🙂
what card do you use on a non category bonus spending?
heya! i was wondering if u would like to collab? i love your channel and videos 🙂 have a great day!
Hey Mandy,
Seen the flights you guys previously had done would be nice to give us something to look forward once things go back to normal!
I personally have Citi premier,prestige and Hilton aspire on my wallet now to Maximize online/grocery purchases.
Mandy I have the same wallet and same cards lol except that Amex bonvoy..that small wallet is a part of the my bigger wallet.
Without being able to travel ourselves your travel videos give us some hope and something to look forward to for when we can travel. Post them for sure
CSR,biz platinum, costco card, ink cash,
blue business
That would be great if you could post all the videos from your trips! I've been re-watching all of Seb's room tours for like the 100th time cause I miss traveling. LOL
I may have done my math wrong but is that almost $1500 in annual fees between three cards?
Publish the vids, anyone who doesn't know they were shot before the pandemic should chill and go watch another video..
I’ve been working on MS with CF , CFU and my Amex Platinum. Daily drivers would be CSR , Amex Gold and Apple Card. Discover will be utilized for next quarter for PayPal purchases, so he can stay put in my lock box. Definitely will be aiming for that Hilton aspire in 3-4 months and that’s it for me with cards 😅
I hope you post the travel vlogs
Are you in SF Japantown in the thumbnail?
Publish the travel videos. Also like your current hairstyle and facial tones. Very soft, warm and inviting. Great for videos.
Your sentence phrasing sounds very similar to Sebby's. Cool!
Publish! Plz!
Yes Mandy, pls share those travel vids since we all at home, might as well enjoying ur scenic shots.
Mandy, if I have the amex bonvoy (one you cant apply for anymore) and the amex bonvoy business, do they both have their own free night award or does it not stack? Lovely and concise videos as always, keep up the wonderful work!
How do I know what locations are safe to travel to in the fall?
The Sony ZV-1's autofocus is really fast!
yes publish it
I also love that you actually show the cards lol…. Sebby never shows cards in his videos but always includes them on his thumbnail…. There's something about seeing how the cards actually look like, that makes it satisfying.
Do you have the link to that wallet ?
Now that travel is starting up again you should post your trips with what cards/ points you used.
I thought sebastian was gay lol
