DW came home yesterday with a shopping bag full a gift cards. With a smile on her face she says to me "I killed them today". I think that would qualify as a yes for me. What do you say?

Definitely not. But she doesn't seem to complain about all the benefits.

Where's the poll?
Does future spouse count?

Not sure how to add a poll.

Of course future spouses count. If you can find a future spouse that already understands the game is hitting the goldmine.

My spouse isn't complaining about our upcoming trip to Hawaii ...

No. But maybe she will, I just can't ask her. I don't know her.

She participates when she has to i.e. putting her Credit on the line as well as picking up GCs when they are in her name and need store pick up. Well worth the benefits to her..

By me I need to convince her sometimes that it's worth it. I usually do it when we are on a flight that she found for like 3000$ each of us and I got for 42,500 miles.
Though in second thought she is in the game of the UPS method she actually rocks in it

From the desktop version (not tapatalk), there is an "add poll" button right next to the "reply" button.

skeptical when we first got married-but after 5 major trips (esp. last years all in biz to asia) , any month when I dont tell her to use only a specific new credit card she asks why I have not opened anything this month

Eh, buying them is the fun part. Now see if she'll help you cash them out!

In my house we call it GCL (gift card life). I don't MS much but I do use 5x GC's for everyday spend and I ask my wife to do the same... So she begrudgingly does all her daily spending $200 at a time. I promised her after the next European vacation she can stop and I'll take it over...

Killing them is cashing them out, no? I thought that's what he meant.

Correct. She does not get involved in liquidation.

My wife buys GCs and helps a bit with liquidation but HATES making recon calls.
