This is going to be a challenge for me too. I have all but stopped going to Gander in Woodbury. Now this Cabelas will be 6 miles from my house. I better get a Cabelas club card and start saving up points
You know, those club cards really are a great deal. It literally IS free money.
Mrs. Grouse and I have the Am Ex gold rewards card and we put everything on it and then pay 1 bill per month.
So essentially anytime we want to fly anywhere, it’s free. Just log on to Am Ex, find the tickets, click “Pay With Points” and it’s free tickt time. I also cashed in points for a $200 Home Depot gift card when SWMBO wanted new backsplash tile and my new big screen was free from Best Buy last year.
I have our Am Ex card set up so the bill is auto-payed out of checking each month. I never have to even think about it, it’s as if we were using a debit card, but I firgure we’re getting about $2000 a year in free stuff.
If we didn’t already have this Am Ex thing going, I’d be all over the Cabelas rewards card. If you’re using a debit card from a MegaBank, you’re just throwing away money.
