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.

Not much I can do...
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

I've gone back and forth with samsclub for a month now over these gift cards. i have a rep that is willing to give me a refund on them, but will that cause amex to clawback the $20 credits if a refund is applied?
not sure what your story was. I never received my Sams club gc that I orderd Amex gave me the credit and than SC refunded me. So far haven't resulted in a claw back. I got refunded from SC over 3/4 weeks already

It usually gets charged together. Recently I've had them split it up on me, but I still got the credit. I guess it's a total of $5 even in separate transactions.
One note for you, iTunes might give you trouble switching cards to many times close together.
Any idea what max I can do one after another? Will waiting few hours in between help?

You probably can do three or four.
I don't know how long helps.

Serves me right waiting for the [second to] last day... I got 3 cards in and then I got an error because of a security measure. Called them and they want verification docs. Now that's going to take several days to verify. Baruch Hashem!

I just did the google play one x 2. But I don't remember how to do the iTunes one. Can anyone remind me?

I tried the gift thing, but apparently the smallest gift is $10. My offers are $5 off $5. How can I spend $5 quickly?

Charge
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Charge
If you don't get the credits automatically they'll usually give it to you.

Can't find anything I want right now. Already have $20 credit in iTunes that has sat there for a while now (years). Any recommendations?
