Anyone in Pittsburgh been to Robinson Town Center?  I'm thinking of going tomorrow morning.

I was gonna head out to Robinson on the way to the airport. Did you go already? Anything there? Or did the CLE people get this far east already?  :P

Not to Robinson. I went to the South Hills. I bought nine $200 cards and got $105 off total. I think that's a good combination. They had plenty more. I may go to Robinson tomorrow and do it again.

Why 9 and not 10?

Here in NYC if you get anything you should be happy.
Airlines sending me "We're in this together" emails.

Bruh, where were you when my suitcase weighed it 51.50 pounds?

Because the dude said he would have to fill out paperwork if I did $2000. I didn't want to deal with it.

I'm in Monroeville and they had 4 $200 cards.  They rarely have more than a few $200 available.  Maybe I'll increase my radius.

And I am right in assuming that you bought all four?  :D

Like I said, I went down to the South Hills area. They had tons. Although by now maybe farmbochur got to them. If you live in Squirrel Hill, then the South Hills is no further than Monroeville.

The question is did anybody hit up Robinson Town Center yet?

I checked about 6 stores and none have $200 in Southern California.  $100 is ok, but too much a PITA to load them on the Wally World ATM.

+10

I'm trying to figure out how much my time is worth, by which to discount the savings.

11 OM transactions: $7,800 of Visa GC; 38,420 UR Points; $116.20 Profit.
Not bad for a week's work!

If you don't have another job, it would be $884.60 for the week, assuming the UR are worth $0.02 each (generous for selling them, probably conservative if you redeem them wisely). That would be $22.11 per hour for a 40 hour work week before taxes, which I know aren't applicable here, but also before gas to and from the stores, which you actually might consider tracking.

Not a bad number per hour, depending on your age/education, though!

And if you do have another job, nice work! :)
