Has anyone done one of those wine bundles with points promotions (i.e. Vinesse Wines) where you get say 6 wines for $6.99 each and 10k miles for an airline (AA in this case)? Good/bad experiences with it? I keep getting emails. Obviously will be lower shelf wines but might as well get some miles vs just buying at my grocery store. Thanks all!

Yes and no. I did one. A few nice value picks but at the end of the day I never knew most of the wines. However, I was thinking to sign up again just because of the fires. It’s a revenue stream and I get booze

Just used a meaningful amount of AMEX points for the first time to buy flights to Greece for my wife and I. Emirates business class both ways for 2 people, 290k pts total or 145k each way for 2 tickets. Plus another 30k to get us round trip domestic connecting flights bringing the total to 320 points. This is on the 777 which isn’t the best business class product out there, but I’ve never flown international outside of coach and think it will still be worthwhile. Think this is an OK redemption?

One item borrowers shopping for mortgages get too caught up in is rate. Most borrowers don’t know how to read a loan estimate and get taken advantage all the time. Just because a lender/bank offers you a low rate doesn’t mean it’s best deal. Most cases, especially now since rates have gone up, you are being charged points for some of these lower rates in the 4s. If you don’t know or understand discount points feel free to shoot me a message and I can help you review estimate and see if can beat
