IMO, I would put INK (maybe x2) before BA.

AFAIK YMMV.  Still worth the pull IMO, especially if applying for Bold and Plus.

When I click the link for the Amex SPG it says on the top

You have been identified as a current American Express Card Member. The welcome offer below may not be the same as the offer you saw advertised previously because the other offer you saw is not available to current American Express Card Members. You will not be eligible for the below offer if you have had this product within the last 12 months."

Below that it shows a 10k offer for the SPG.
Granted I can open the link in incognito and it will show me the full 25k bonus, but Amex knows I already have cards with them will they give me the 25k or 10k?

I want to get rid of my Ink Bold because of annual fee. I see on Chase that I can get Ink Cash or Ink Classic, but I only see talk here of Ink Cash. Why? And is there a link for Classic here?

You can get the United milage plus explorer for no foreign fees and first year free (which is btw a great card to have), you can (should) get the freedom.

ETA
The freedom does have foreign fees, so if it's a must then it's not an option.

join the club :)
on second thought if anyone knows of good offers post it because the main chart links either don't work or have bad bonuses.
