Frequent Miler's latest team challenge, Million Mile Madness, is almost done! The last two weeks Greg, Nick, and Stephen competed to earn 1 Million SAS miles by flying 15 airlines. But who completed the challenge with the most Speed, Affordability, and Style?
Welcome to our weekly list of what’s ending this week as well as a collection of some other deals that are due to end soon.
Next Saturday marks the end of the month which means there are more deals expiring this week than usual. That includes a couple of profitable Visa gift card deals at Stop & Shop and Albertsons/Safeway and other Just For U stores.
If you’re on the lookout for business class awards to Europe, Turkish Miles & Smiles has been offering 30% off tickets from Atlanta meaning they only cost 31,500 miles each way. Award availability wasn’t great when Nick originally covered the deal, so I doubt it’s gotten even better. For ~40,000 miles, you might have more luck with August’s Flying Blue Promo Rewards.
Other expiring deals include a couple of deals on Happy gift cards, free National Park passes and hotel promos for Radisson, Marriott and IHG, so be sure to check out the full list to ensure you don’t miss out on anything good for your travel plans.
Below you’ll find this week’s Last Chance Deals. Those are followed by deals that Won’t Last Long and Other Limited-time Offers. Deals in bold were posted this week. You can find all the deals that won’t be ending soon on our Current Deals resource.

Is it just me? Amex offers … I used to get great offers up until these abruptly stopped about a year ago. I have many Amex cards but get almost no offers that work for me. Finally, I get a Hilton offer on my Gold card (earns nothing extra for hotels) but not on my Hilton Aspire card.
Yep, they haven’t been as good as in the past. Having said that, there have been some good ones for Lowe’s and Staples this year that have been good for saving money on third party gift cards.
With regards to the Hilton Amex Offer, is that the one for properties in Europe? If so, it’s listed here https://www.americanexpress.com/us/network/shopping.html#All and so it might be possible to add it to your Aspire card by logging in there.
Thanks, but it didn’t work – just added it to the Gold card …
