You could've bought target gift cards the day they were on sale, or reload your Amazon account.
I hear.  On sale at Target.com?  Any other ideas?

Does Target sell any VGC/MCGCs or Amexes in store that can be bought with a CC?

I just got $650 CB from Discover, normally I'd use it for a small SC, but now I feel with the $5 GC boost I can get better value, but I don't see many normal GC in the options, any ideas how to utilize this?

So i applied for an IT miles card and got pending approval. I checked my CR and realized that i had forgotten that Elan reports at month end, not statement clsoe , so they reported a utilization of about 96% (15k+ on a 16K line). 
My discover app was approved the next day for a whopping 2500. Almost a waste!
How long do i have to wait before requesting an increase? The key here is maximizing the first year match.

Officially 3 months, but in practice it seems 6 months.

You should try after 3, it’s a soft pull initially

Couldn't find the Discover It Miles thread, but was just informed that they will be discontinuing the $30 In-Flight WiFi credit on any flights starting after 3/31/19

I was just on the phone with them a couple of days ago asking if my card still has this benefit. They didn't mention anything about it expiring. I guess I'll be switching over to the card with the quarterly categories.

Your post is right after mine, so perhaps you were addressing me. Do you think that during the year following my switch from IT Miles to the card with quarterly categories they will match the cashback?
