I am up to $92 in cash rebates on my loyalty visa. I put most of our purchases on that card now and pay it off before any finance charges are incurred. The card will pay 1% cash back up to $500 per year. If I hit the $500, I will switch over to the mileage card - which I earned enough points for my flight to Alaska in August. In addition to the 1% cash back, I get about 10% off everywhere I shop because of the relationship the credit union has with the merchant.
The store I usually shop at offers $ off on gas for points. I usually save at least 10 cents off per gallon at each fill up. THEN, they send a rebate for purchases. Today I used two of the loyalty coupons...$2 off meat and $2 off veggies...plus $8.62 off any purchase as a loyalty rebate to my purchases last month.
My job gives me 10% of all interest earned/paid each year as a loyalty rebate...which was about $300 last year.
I love being paid for my loyalty to places.
Alaska airlines rewards the hub with free upgrades and flights because of his loyalty.
Kohls rewards me with 30% off occasionally coupled with Kohls cash.
Of course, I try to always balance loyalty with the best deal. Sometimes, being loyal doesnt make sense if there is a killer deal somewhere else. However, when all things are equal, I go with loyalty.
Loyalty pays...and I love reaping the rewards.
Gotta love loyalty rewards!
