A lot of the rewards cards available to apply for seem to only deal with miles or points or cash back. I was just wondering if there were any cards out there with weird or unusual rewards bonuses, like phone insurance or physical items. If you know of anything like this I'd love to know, thanks! I'm relatively new to the churning game.

There's a relativly new AT&T card that gives you a free phone. And there are a bunch of cards that you could redeem their points on Amazon (Thank You points, Master Rewards, and more), but the value given is much less than if you were to use the points other ways.

Walmart had a free 2 liter soda bottle just for signing up. People successfully mbm'ed coke and sprite, but Pepsi was a separate pull.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

If you got this maybe they can match you to the coke offer.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

If only they were offering a coke.

 Normally done to get multiple cards while only getting one credit pull on your credit report.

Is that only when you're applying to the same bank or even applying to different banks at once would only be one hard pull? How does this work exactly? Thanks.
