Quick Thoughts
The 15x / 15% rates are likely on their last day today and some actually represent increases over previous days.
Of note, some people are targeted for 20% back at retailers like Adidas, Under Armour, Carter’s, Reebok, and more. My wife was targeted for the 20% back deals, but I wasn’t. YMMV.
Make sure to keep payouts like these in mind when looking to stack today’s Cyber Monday deals.

will buying xbox gift cards on dell.com still allow for 10-11% cashback on sites like rakuten/topcashback, even though fine print specifically excludes such purchases?
plan was to buy these egift cards using my biz plat dell $200 credit and then use them on msft store.
Hi Nick, Are you the only one working today LOL. Can I use the Rakutan site for the $50 Saks credit?
Yes, you can click through a shopping portal to go to Saks and use your Platinum card to check out — that’s what makes this a good stack. You’ll get 15% back (or 15 Membership Rewards points per dollar spent if your account is set up to earn points) and get your $50 back.
And to your question, I am the only person on Quick Deals, yes. That’s usually the case — Stephen does Quick Deals on Sundays and Wednesdays and I do them the other 5 days per week among other things. Greg is surely working on something, but he focuses on his long-form posts and bigger-picture stuff like site direction and plans. So yeah, it’s my job to post this stuff and answer your questions 😀
@Nick Reyes not to derail the thread too much, but will buying xbox gift cards on dell.com still allow for 10-11% cashback on sites like rakuten/topcashback, even though fine print specifically excludes gift card purchases?
plan was to buy these egift cards using my biz plat dell $200 credit and then use them on msft store.
Yes. I’ve earned both portal rewards and Dell rewards from these purchases.
Any other suggestions on how to use Amex biz plat dell credits? I only found out your idea after subscribing to your YouTube channel so thank you.
Dumb question: can I stack Rakuten with EPP/Student discounted prices on Samsung.com (e.g. when shopping from Unidays or PerksAtWork)? Or is this sort of double-dip not going to work?
