At Staples they also sell $100 Visa cards for $105.95 that will be $85.95 with this promo and $200 Visa cards for $206.95 that will be $186.95 with this promo!

American Express is always running fantastic promotions. Along with their absolutely incredible purchase protections it makes having their cards quite valuable.
Online account offers:
After logging onto my online account and clicking on my Starwood Preferred Guest® Credit Card from American Express here are the offers I have.
Check all of your cards as they can have different offers.
Be sure to save the offer to the card you want to use before spending on the card as shows below:
Current offers (all valid once per card)
-Spend $30 at BP, get $5 back through 05/31.

Don’t have an offer in your account? You can chat with AMEX and ask them to honor the deal for you as well.
Want to get an offer multiple times on different cards?
Normally when you save an offer from one card it disappears from other cards. But you can have each of your AMEX cards offers opened in multiple tabs. Then click save offer to each of the cards at the same time!
Want to get an offer on authorized user cards as well?
You can make a separate login for AU cards and then save the offer to those as well.
Current AMEX Twitter offers:
You can also signup for offers via Twitter.
You can register all of your cards on Twitter, it just entails either: Unsyncing and resyncing cards via this link or making a Twitter account for each card. If you do unsync and resync multiple cards on the same Twitter account you must change the tweet slightly each time like:
#AmexBP
#AmexBP 1
#AmexBP 2
And so on.
When resyncing there is no need to fill out your billing address, just fill out the first half of the form with your name, email, and your credit card number. You can skip the optional fields asking for your billing address, card expiration, and the 4 digit code. You can use the same email address for all of your cards.
Make sure to check by clicking on Notifications that your registration went through before unsyncing. It should come within a minute. If you are unsure whether a card is registered you can always sync it again and reregister. If that card has already been registered then you will get a message after clicking Notifications that the card was already previously registered. Otherwise you should get a registration confirmation.

Wow. Thanks quite good deals…
Any good offers on getting an Amex card now ?
Last week I opened a new SPG account and there was a 30K offer in there. When I called SPG to confirm later on they told me that they merged my 2 SPG rewards accounts together. AMEX confirmed that I do have the 30K
Dan, Is the “Amex EveryDay” a new card?? I See it promoted on Americanexpress.com.
No annual fee, Up to 3X points on select categories, etc.
And 10,000 bonus points for spending 1,000 in first 3 months.
Maybe it might be a good card to downgrade my Amex Premier Rewards Gold for a no annual fee.
hey dan thanks for the site! any info on that new amex everyday card is there anything speciall about it? i thought it strange for amex to have such a simple card?
I signed up for starwoods spent my 5k but only received 15k points when I called them they said the offer I applied only included the 10k bonus for spending a $1 not extra 15k what do I do now
Are these offers only for the Starwood card or any Amex Card?
@yaakov:
Any amex
I had the same issue as dans chosid they told me if i give them a offer code they MIGHT be able to give me the 15k bonus
HUCA. I got the same response. Called again and hte next supervisor gave me the credit.
what is the difference from amexbp or amexbp1 ?
Worth noting in post that you can buy $50 GCs at Lowes to Amazon, gas stations, and more!
My amex does not offer Dell.
no twitter account, or interest in opening one.
I have all inks.
which one would get me a Dell discount?
i just contacted amex via chat and asked them to honor the &10 off for lowes to my spg card, being that the offer did not show up under my account.i was told that they can’t honor it but instead they will credit my account today for $10 without doing any purchase by lowes. what a great deal 🙂
@bargain shopper Lucky you sounds like your good at it
What would happen if I end up returning the stuff I buy?
Dan
I have one of my amex accounts a gold card that charged me $175 annual fee, I want to cancel the card. I have about 11k miles on that account, what airline program is my best option I should transfer the miles to before I cancel the card?
Is there any reason to buy the $200 visa gift card at staples as opposed to a $100 gift card which is the minimum needed to get the $20 statement credit? Thank you.
@shimshi: If you have a different Amex card with MR points, check that the 2 accounts are using the same MR #, and they’ll be saved there for you without any transferring.
If not, it depends what type of travel or other uses you have. Read or ask in the forums for more info.
DAN
whats the best way to downgrade my platunuem
can i downgrade to the new card from amex and get the points
or its not worth ?? green card which card is the best ??
Not a related question, someone offered me to give my info and he will open amax cards for me do the spending and by the end of the month I get a check with the money the miles he collected are worth and the money the bonous miles for sign up are worth, does it make sense?
@esti:
Only if you want to spend more.
@ari:
Only if you’re completely out of your mind.
Buying $100 gift cards at Staples instead of $200 ones would be a better savings.
For example, buying 4 $100 cards would cost only $320 + fees while 2 &$200 cards would cost $360 + fees. Obviously a little convenience is lost in having the smaller denomination card, but I’d say it’s worth the extra $0.10 on the dollar.
Thanks for the great info about separate AU accounts, I never would have thought of that!
ive actually chatted and they dont honor anymore. they say u were not targeted etc…i want that bonobos offer 🙁
@D.:
True, unless you have a spend threshold to meet.
@ive chatted:
Try again.
@Dan
you said the additional user can sign in and receive for his card also. i tried that and could not find anywhere to get that done. here is what the rep told me in the chat:
“Jack: All the offers that you are able to see under your “Offers for me” page are eligible for your card only and these offers are solicited and non-transferable.”
So how did you do this?
thanks
Dan, can you clarify – will syncing and resyncing allow more than one primary card, or even more than one AU?
@Additional User:
Either use Twitter or register the AU have its own AMEX account online.
@Ben:
Yes.
@Dan
I already had AU registered, and i logged in using that account and nada.
Also i dont know what that means “Use Twitter” so i think im SOL.. 🙁
Rephrase – I read the OP. But i dont use twitter so gibberish to me. Ill play around…
But i am curious still how you did the AU directly from the AMEX site bc it seems impossible.
you: I would like the Staples offer added to my acct
Tania: I am afraid we cannot add the promotional offers manually..
Guys, just use Twitter. It’s really straightforward.
Dan, with unsync and resync, can u get the offer on a registered unsynced card? Or does it have to be synced at time of purchase?
I’m not clear- I have one card synced thru Twitter and tweeted. If I unsync and sync a different card, do I lose the promotion on card #1 once it’s unsynced?
@tom:
@Al:
Nope, as long as you register the card and get confirmation in “Notifications” then it does not have to be synced at the time of purchase.
I’ve done that many times without issue.
I have my wife as AU on one of my AMEX cards. I created separate Twitter accounts for both of us for this purpose. I sync’d my AMEX card to the Staples deal and I’m going to sync her AU card to the deal on hear account as well. Will we both be able to benefit from the deal? How can I confirm that we both got the deal? Will it show up twice in “offers for you”? She doesn’t have her own AMEX log in.
Also, I have a Serve card and have sync’d some deals too. How can I confirm that the deal is good on it? The Serve doesn’t have a “offers for you” tab on the webpage.
I also would like to know if Serve works for this.
hi Dan, i request you should make a current Amex CC Offers Roundup! Thanks!
can u create a link for staples as you did by the amazon promo I cant seem to sign up for twitter maybe too much dd traffic lol
“Sorry, max # of Card Members have enrolled in #AmexStaples offer.”
Hi i have the offer of spend $5 on itunes get $5 back is there anyway to buy a $5 itunes gift card i remember u once posted something about that THANKS
Yup maxed out – DEAL DEAD for now
When sign up for twitter for first time, use real name? what name do you give yourself? what would amex need to recognize you? any site showing how to sych amex card to twitter account?
where would u get notification you were signed up for an offer?
@Q: fake name is fine
@Q: amex will shoot you back a tweet within a minute comfirming. just press “expand”.
Dan, Do you know when the Amex Staples offer first came out? With the April 30 expiration date and the fact that it is already maxed out, I am thinking that it came out quite a while ago. Is there any way to find out about these when they first come out? Thanks for all your good work.
Staples offer DEAD!
Can anybody advise?
I was just refused for a amex gold. Letter says no bank account info. [my credit score is 716]. Of course, I have checking and savings account.
When I call, they say: update your credit report with experian and then we will give in for manual review, cuz if you give in for manual review now likely will be refused again.
That will probably take forever!
Should I just give in for manual review as is???
Dan, maybe you can advise?
Chuck, thank you. can you direct me where to get instrusctions on what fields needed to be filled with twit, and how to put in amex offers?
Spend $5 at iTunes get $5 back 🙂
I can’t help but wonder if there’s going to be a future “massacre” post when AmEx curtails these offers due to things like the advice on how to get around the offers disappearing from other cards by using multiple tabs/browsers/etc….
Pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered!
josh, did you need to spend in one purchase, or can add a few? what would be good stuff to buy?
ok, created a twitter account, where would i get confirm offer was added to my account?
@Doug:
Keep drinking the haterade.
Nobody would call anything a massacre if these promotions were limited to the primary cardholder as they easily could be.
@josh:
Click on notifications.
Dan, thanks and god bless you
have a fantastic passover!
dan, does itune credit have to be one purchase for 5+, or can be several totaling 5?
what do you guys buy at itune?
can I get a whole CD of jewish music, or need to buy one song at a time?
TIA
@Q: hit the tweet button in the top-right corner (blue button). type in #amexbp. hit the tweet button.
Saw a feature called “retweet”. what does it do?
does tweet have to be exact to take effect? eg “#amexbp” and not :#amexbp1?”
can amex recognize if a number is added to original txt?
any idea why my cards didnt get the staples offer? I realize tweet maxed out, just wonder why my card didnt have it on my offers, which I check regularly. which cards did u get it on>
Thanks chuck, I am learning…
@Q: dunno what retweet means. u can add a 1 or anything u want. all my cards got it. did u just create a log-in today? it sometimes takes time.
Sorry, max # of Card Members have enrolled in #AmexFreshMarket offer.
