When reporting a new offer please post here http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=49544.0

To take advantage of an Amex offer, first save the offer to your card, then do the spending. There are a few ways to save offers to your card; http://www.amexoffers.com/ has links to most of them. Depending on the offer and depending on your Amex card, it may be available via none, one or more than one of these methods:

americanexpress.com web site
Log into the americanexpress.com web site. If you get the new version of the site, scroll down to Amex Offers & Benefits at the bottom of the page. If you get the old version, click the Amex Offers For You tab. You can also see on this web site which offers you already saved (even if you saved them via a method other than this web site) and which offers you already redeemed. This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express.
The maximum number of offer that the site will show you is 100. If you already have 100 available offers, there may be other offers that they are prepared to show you, but are not showing you because you already have the maximum. To see additional offers, save one or more of your available offers and then refresh the list (F5 in most Windows browsers).

Saving an offer on AmericanExpress.com to one of your cards will automatically make it unavailable for the rest of your cards linked to the same login. The way to get around this is by opening all of your cards in separate tabs and then saving the offer in each.  **

**Sign into different tabs?!?
Sign onto your Amex account. card #1 is on the page.  scroll to offers. note a good one. 
Open  tab 2: amex.com (or with Chrome, right click on the first tab and choose Duplicate) > you are already logged in.> go to my accounts > click on card #2  on the top of the page. scroll to offers. check for same good offer. 
Open tab #3. repeat as for tab #2. Repeat as necessary.
THEN: on tab #1 - click 'save' .  Then on tab #2 click 'save' . Then on each tab.
If you so desire: check on each card's 'saved offers' to check that it's there.

This link should take you to the Amex old layout,
which is much easier to scroll down through all the offers.

Amex® Mobile app
This method is only available for Amex credit and charge cards issued by American Express. The login is the same as for the americanexpress.com web site.

Dedicated web site for enrollment
Some Amex offers, most notably Small Business Saturday, but also NYC Restaurant Week, Home Depot, Amazon and DirecTV, offer a dedicated web site where you could enter your card information to enroll.

For Bluebird/Serve cards
Amex offers can be saved via the bluebird.com web site. Go to Plan & Manage > Amex Offers. Amex offers can also be saved via the Bluebird mobile app.

For cards not issued by American Express (such as Amex cards issued by Citi, USAA, PenFed, Bank of America, etc.)
Add offers to your card at this site: https://www.americanexpress.com/us/network/shopping.html
You will be prompted for your name, card number and email address.

"It's appearing an investigation is still going on under known Amex issue, and I am working to update my notes under the investigation request."
Ditto similar indecipherable update.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

I had this offer a few months ago and ended up using it.

Yippeee! Could you read the thread that you posted in?
That would be more impressive if everyone read it! NO DISCUSSION is it that hard for everyone to understand?
I only paid 15% by switching to dansdeals

Seriously @ludmila?
How many times do you need to be reminded not to post in that thread? Let alone not to multi post?

On a totally unrelated topic... Anyone have thoughts on buying gift cards or prepaid Mastercards on Google express on dozens of amex cards? Any fears of shut downs?

No one gives a crap about you and your nasty mouth, your mother did not teach you any manners, but I will if I need to, you picked on the wrong person to bully.

My mother taught me manners, she also taught me to follow damn instructions.

I bought a HomeDepot GC and it charged tax (and it wasn't the correct tax rate either). They charged me $55.13 for a $50 gift card, which is ~10.25% and NYC sales tax is only 8.875%

When did u buy it?
Last night. Its supposed to be delivered today, although I haven't heard anything about it being shipped. Although looking at the order now, it looks like they adjusted the tax away. I'm not sure if that was automatic or because i complained.
