Money: Why aren’t you getting something for nothing?

Monday, January 23rd, 2006

Our Moosey friend over at Free Money Finance had a good posting about the top 6 store givebacks. Made me wonder how much I have made using my PC Financial Card (remember a while back I posted What is In It For Me about using it).

To quote Frank Barrone, “Holy Crap!”, I have been using the card for 9 months, and I have earned over 639,000 points and every thousand points is $1 of groceries at Loblaws or of it’s affiliated stores. Wow! Now I got a cheap bump of about 100,000 points for transferring my Petro-Points over there, but still, that is the most I have ever got back from a Credit Card in a year.

It really does work, if you are skeptical, I guess is what I am saying today. A good way to reduce debt, is to get more money, and you can get more money, by using a Credit Card that pays you for using it!

Remember to also read the Carnival of Debt Reduction here as well!
