Lol, in Cleveland alone I'm sure it exceeded that.

I'm pretty sure that a limit of one per card account is going to be coming by next year.
Amex lost loads of money. I'm not sure it was worth it for them.

They get a lot of advertisement out of this. The problem is you just can't keep rubbing it in their face and expect them not to react.

Of course, but even this smashing success has a certain money worth that IMHO was far exceeded.

They didn't lose anymore or less because of ppl abusing the AU's. They have xxxxxxx's spots and once it fills up the promo is done makes no difference to them if u swipe 5 or 100.

So if one person took all the spots they would not care? Can't believe how clueless some members are.

There are 2 types of machines.
Some stores still have this ild one that you wait for the paper to come out and sign...
I think Dan was using such a terminal.

The newer ones, that you sign on the computer go in seconds.
