Detailed Ultimate Rewards Mall changes

21

Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is happening now! Follow us as Greg, Nick, and Stephen compete to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines before November 23rd. Who will complete the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?

Follow along here!

This morning I posted some of the changes I saw in the Ultimate Rewards Mall.  In the comments of that post reader HikerT posted a very helpful complete list of changes.  Unfortunately, WordPress cut off his comment after a few rows.  Here it is in it’s entirety:

Wish it was just an April Fools.  Here is what I’m seeing as far as changes.  I will try to update my web page summary later.  Also, New Ink seems to have reverted to Old Ink (no unique merchants now).

[…] Keep an eye on the Ultimate Rewards mall at the beginning of each month as you will frequently see new point bonuses appear (and old ones go away). If you want more details about the various point bonus that appeared and disappeared this month, then head over to the Frequent Miler as he has a pretty comprehensive list. […]

Arye: the terms and conditions say no gift card purchases

arye

can u get 10x office depot for buying gcs? Add to that 5x for the ink bold and thats 15x. Then what about using the gc to go in store and buy gas cards to sell to pj? Sounds too good to b true.

BothofUs2

Thanks for the info in this format, really helpful!

[…] The Frequent Miler posted today with a list of all the changes in earnings for the Ultimate Rewards Mall. I am hoping that some of the decreases are simply April Fool’s jokes and will return to the higher amounts tomorrow, but I am not very optimistic about that. For those who don’t know, the Ultimate Rewards Mall is one of the best online portals for earning points for your purchases, but you have to have a Chase UR card to have access. Details HERE. […]

Looks like I am going to buy those toner cartridges from Office Depot now:-) 10X gets my attention:-)

Ryan from MA

I agree with Travelocity…does anyone know what this means “Eligible within three weeks of booking”

al613

Any other good rebates at Staples?

al613

Discover still gives 5% back on staples and every time when I go through their mall with a not Discover card, it’s still posts to my cashback

@kevinjrwagner

I just bought 10 copies of the same product yesterday but with the expired Rebate number. Can I buy 10 more copies today with the new Rebate number and still get the Rebate?

FrequentMiler

kevinjrwagner: Yes. Details to follow in the morning.

James

Unfortunately, Staples is down to 2X as well…

James

Thanks for posting in an easier to read format. Unfortunately when I posted the comment I needed to remove the .com from all merchant names (to get around the spam filter) so merchants like buy.com and magazines.com may not jump out. Here’s the updated summary by card:
