Not sure why everyone is giving OP grief. There is a thread on the main bowl asking about frugal habits and it has 400+ comments with everything from taking hotel tea bags home to eating free on dates. Somehow you all are bashing OP here for a simple innocuous ask. And stereotyping. Really?

Dude you are using a platinum card. Doesn’t that cost like a zillion bucks. And you want to do a side deal for 50 bucks. Are you a consultant ?

...Or maybe he sees the value in the cards benefits (ie more than the 550 he pays a year)?

OP good on you, I wouldn’t be able to do it. But a part of me is secretly envious.
