We bring you the new Verizon Up program, more on the Movie Pass deal, get you 1,000 Marriott Rewards points & how to book award flights for others, we hope that Buffett gets Synchrony to offer juicy credit card signup bonuses for a change, possibly get you up to $900 in cash, talk about robots and phucking Nazis and stuff like that…

This is great. How to book flights for someone else with miles (rules for 20+ programs). In general, you can book an award ticket for anyone you want.
Looks like Verizon has a new rewards program named Verizon Up. You can read more about it HERE. The darn awful Verizon Rewards is dead, hooray!
Not sure if you missed this…but Warren Buffett bought 17.5 million shares of Synchrony Financial. Maybe we start seeing big signup bonuses from this bank soon too? #dreaming
Remember that Movie Pass deal you can use to go to movies for just $9.99 per month. Well, AMC will try to prevent you from doing so and “is consulting with its attorneys”. Movie Pass had just 20,000 subscribers in December and plans/hopes to add another 100,000 with this promo. They are going to make money from ads, seriously? Beware.
Did robo calls call your number? You can check for it here and then decide if you want to participate in this class action lawsuit to get UP to $900 cash.
Get up to 1,000 Marriott Rewards points by signing up for Visa Checkout. I find it ridiculous to have so many of these payment services out there, WTF! Speaking of Marriott Rewards, I won 300 points on that social media promotion.
Where the robots are. Great map, I did not know I live in the area with most robots. Sadly they are ones used in car factories 🙂
VICE News gets embedded with the Nazis in Charlottesville. Must watch video. If this does not get you angry…please get the phuck out of here!
This was pretty good. Good message. Never give up 🙂 Dwayne The Rock Johnson on the Best Thing that Never Happened.
Me sneaking out ice cream to my family since anti family Delta no longer allows family members into their clubs with the Amex Platinum card <——imaginary link. I would scream freeeee but you guys know the annual fee of this card lol.
True facts that sound like they are fake. I was shocked by some of them, wow!
The situation with the airlines has changed so drastically in the last decade. They all make money now and don’t need us to fill their planes, sad! (for us).

It is a sad day in my household. No more Fairmont Visa, it is now dead. Waiting for the Chase Sapphire Reserve to come in the mail. Chase Fairmont Cards Have Now Converted To Chase Sapphire Preferred Cards – What You Need To Know/Do. Yeah, out of link freeze but not for long…
Just in case I did not make myself clear about Nazis!
I have decided to kill the Sunday posts freeing my whole weekends. I need to blog detox myself. At just three cards this month and all the time I put into this…is way too deflating. So, let me not deflate my weekends too, thanks!
Today I am preparing for my Friday colonoscopy. I would highly suggest to steer clear of me lol.
And I leave you with this…

First from Family Hotel Amarin in Rovinj, Croatia!
Here’s the snag with luxury family hotels. Let’s be honest, only 20-30 year olds look good in swimwear. And family hotels have no-one in this demographic 🙂 People who had kids young generally can’t pay £500 per night for a hotel.
Hadn’t thought about that downside. Another reason to go back to chain hotels, besides the fact that I’m cash broke, points rich…
That’s why you bring the nanny.
Yep, mummy tummies don’t look nice at the beach. You should go where the millenials are…
Two references to robots in today’s post, George you are slowly getting there!
I had to look this one up. Behold, Mike the Headless Chicken, who did indeed survive for 18 months despite lacking a head:

Thanks for that robocall settlement–they let you look up your phone number to see if you’re eligible, and my wife’s # was on there.
Good luck with the Friday test.

It’s a long weekend without TBB.
I am about to mix some crap in a Gatorade and drink this the whole day. Going to be a long day!
Never had a nanny. Actually, we never paid for any babysitters either 🙂
Another $0 day Sam, I need to listen to wife, this is just nuts…slowly get it back to what is supposed to be: a hobby. She ever told me to stop whining, WTF! Well, she said “do what others do to get more clicks or just stop whining”. I responded…I can’t do all that commercial ass kissing shit, I mean, if I go down that rabbit hole you ‘ll see me doing a Friday interview at MMS. OMG, just the thought of that….
None of my phone numbers qualified. Hate when that happens!
There will be a post this Sunday. Likely the last one. Unless somehow this blog produces ten cards this month. At just three so far…ain’t happening. Oh, I should get me one to help the cause soon then #brilliant
Gotta go
After you watch the Vice video, which has lots of coverage of “tough guy” Christopher Cantrell – who says, at one point, “We’ll kill ’em if we have to” – watch this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X4_0CCaDI-A
where, following #Charlottesville, he is blubbering tearfully about being wanted by the police and not knowing what to do now.
I’m a pretty sympathetic person and generally feel badly when I see someone in crisis, but this guy, whose life goal seems to be to terrorize anyone who is not a white nationalist while glorifying himself, deserves all the anxiety, worry, fear and helplessness he has brought upon himself.
That dude is the definition of a clown….OMG, I just agreed with Bannon. After yesterday agreeing with Ted Cruz, George W Bush and…Nancy Grace, all on the same day.
ti is crazy…
And just now Trump tweeted so quickly after the Barcelona attack about some shit that happened many years ago…only that it probably did not happen so he is WRONG again…Sure waited to get all them facts straight…motrher fracker.
The guy is clinically insane imho. #beenconsistent!
I still dont get the whole Nazi thing. These morons had a rally in Charlottesville VA and it took them scouring the countryside from coast to coast to find what 200 dudes? In a country of 330m I bet we have more than 200 serial killers out there roaming around. I live in the south and ive never seen a swatika flag ever. Talk about pumping up an insignifcant group. Major news cant help but fan this trash. Let these frauds slink back into their holes. As the Dead Kennedys sung in Nazi Punks eff off “In a real 4th Reich they’d be the 1st to go”
But there were a lot of fine people in that group man!
I remember years ago while in college I went to protest a demonstration by them KKK Nazi types. There were abt a dozen of losers, we outnunbered them. It was a spectacle, i remember seeing me in the background in the local TV News…I never went back, much better to ignore them, this is what they want, attention!
So I agree with you…And I agree with Bannon too they are clowns.
Loved the Dead Kennedys!
+1
Or like Counter-protesters at a K.K.K. rally in Charlotte, N.C, dress up like clowns and make fun of Nazis.
