Should I cash out my CSR points now via Pay Yourself Back? Not planning to travel through 2020 EOY and then canceling CSR after.

At 1.5c a point, it’s not necessarily the highest value but if that’s the only choice you got since you aren’t traveling, that’s better than doing cash back at 1c a point

like

How many points are we talking

200k

Another option is to transfer them all to your favorite travel program and keep them there (eg united) . You may or may not value them more than 1.5c per point.

Just FYI, 2020 ended 7 months ago 🤨

For all you retail people...are you experiencing a very slow holiday season? I am a retail manager and I feel like this season has been freakishly slow. I thought we would at least match last year's number or be up a little bit but we are trending down. I talked to employees of other stores in the mall and they are saying the same thing. Is anyone else experiencing this in their market?
