Most points hounds are aware of double dipping but did you know you can triple dip as well? It is not very often you see a triple dip offer but this is one. If you use your Aeroplan Credit Card (CIBC/AMEX) to buy the Travel Cards, get the bonus for the travel cards and then get your miles for you actual stay, you will have completed the elusive 'triple dip'
ReplyDeleteWhen shopping around for a travel reward credit card I implore you not to jump at the first offer that catches your fancy. Some of the advertisements that we see on TV and in the magazines are pretty slick but remember, the devil is in the details. And when it comes to credit cards, it is oh so true.
