Same. So I need to make a email for each then a Twitter account??

That is why I stopped using twitter for Amex Sync, I lost the sheet of what card went with each separate email address and was not willing to unsync and go through the whole thing again. I just take the Amex offers on my account and my authorized users which i set a separate log in for each user.

I got a Twitter response this morning on the ExxonMobil and best buy offer

Do Best Buy stores carry Visa, MC or Amazon GCs?

What makes you say it is harder to get Israeli citizenship? Why would one need to be a citizen in order to move there (I know people living there for many decades as non citizens)? 08-09 was bad here? If so how does moving to Jerusalem make any difference?

You could be correct about being able to live there without citizenship so far, but laws are changing , a year ago any non Israeli without a TZ # cant open a bank account, and Bituah Leumi --etc are only available to citizens and in some cases to Yeshiva students. They do not want non citizens to get any benefits without having Israel as their main residence, i.e stay at least 6 out of 12 months in the country and pay taxes. Since I live in the USA , when i renewed my passport at the Chicago consulate they changed my 10 year passport to a 2 year Israeli Taudat Mevar, same happened to many Israelis I know.
In 2008-09 the USA economy , housing market and stock market collapsed , was only partially saved by extreme money printing and banks bail out, the Israeli economy , banks and real estate markets were not affected, it looks like all about to repeat soon, the USA is 23 trillion USD in debt and increasing, it is the most debted nation in history, better to have an option out when needed.

I heard recently israel is attempting to pass a law that taxes foreigners who own property in israel, not sure what the details are and if it passed/or about to or was just an idea.

The tax is for both Israeli and foreign owners of 3 or more apartments, and for those who have apartments without living in them for most of the year, and not renting them, they are trying to control the increase in apartment prices, it will not work.
Also if you renounce Israeli citizenship it is much harder to get again when needed, my family and I are all keeping our Israeli citizenship, if or when it gets bad here like a repeat of 2008-09 and it will, ill have a place in Jerusalem to move to.

The $500 variable is only 1 per transaction.

Thanks, so the best option is to buy $200  cards?

Re SC offer:
6x $200 MCGC worked out well. I got refunds of $247.78. Deduct $38.88 in fees, and the balance is $209 (per card) + points. 

So doing 6 x $200 MC worked? I tried doing 2 x $500 and 1 x $200 but the cashier said only 1 per transaction?
