๐ฆ 10% Off Amazon Gift Cards + 4 More Ways to Saveโ
I'm beta-testing a new gift card platform I built and one of the best deals I've been able to find and offer is 10% off Amazon Gift Cards. If you're interested, fill out โthis very short formโ and I'll send you an invite. I should also be able to offer 6-20% off a few other popular brands (e.g., Uber, DoorDash, Walmart, Instacart, etc.).
Additionally, there are 4 more new Amazon offers:
- โ$15 off $50โ on household essentials
- โ$15 Whole Foods gift cardโ with your first pharmacy purchase
- โ2 free Kindle booksโ via Amazon first reads

๐ฑOne Year of Unlimited Wireless for $135
Right now โMint Mobileโ has a promotion to get a full year of unlimited wireless (talk/text/data) for $180 + taxes/fees (which were ~$28 for me), but to sweeten the deal, there's a โcard-linked offer for $45 off $90+โ, which brings the total down to $163 for 12 months of service, which is only $13.58/mo. You can find the 12mo deal โhereโ.
Note: Mint Mobile was a sponsor of the podcast last year, but we paid in full for our new line with this deal last week. I'm also hoping that if enough people use the link above they might renew their partnership, so thanks in advance for supporting me (but obviously only if you actually want to sign up AND don't find a better deal elsewhere)

Capital One card-linked offers now โearn miles instead of cash backโ, giving cardholders who earn Capital One Miles even more value since these miles can be transferred to travel partners.
