How does one get the 750 cash ?

$420 on Amazon Prime.

So what happens is that they charge the total ticket to your card, and provide credit to account for deducting points at 1 cent. Once you cancel the ticket, the credit card chArge gets reversed, but the points have already been cashed to the account in a way. That doesn’t get reversed :)

Hello amazing people. I currently work in CA as a HH RN and planning on relocating to MI in couple months.
I’m not sure about the most efficient way to proceed. Is it best to start as a travel HH RN? Do I apply directly with an agency that offers relocation benefits?….I have over 15 YOE, what’s the pay like in MI?
Thank you all for your help!
