Supposedly there is a 30k offer on SPG site when on booking page.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

SPG doesn't transfer to MR.

Oh, but how valuable are they (ie. 1 MR = x cents, 1 SPG = x cents)?

Also, why is SPG with no signup bonus better than E/d and PRG without bonus?

Thanks!

MR is valued about 1.4, SPG about 1.8.

I do a lot of groceries and gas and the ED offers a lot of points for those while SPG is 1 point across for everything..

SPG is 1.25 for everything when you take into consideration the 25% transfer promo.

ED is 1.2 on everything if you make 20 transactions a month.

I'm aware, I was just pointing out that SPG can be more than 1ppd.
Also, IMHO SPG is a lot more valuable than MR, but to each their own.

EDP is even more on groceries and gas. Isn't that better for me than the SPG if my main purchasing is groceries and gas?

Yes, keep in mind that it's capped at $6k.

Anyone know Goldminings process? Will they do a 2BM for me on the ED and PRG?
