May 27 Update: Last few days to grab the TD First Class Visa Infinite Card with 65,000 points, Aeroplan eStore Mega Event this weekend and a targeted Starbucks Rewards offer


Thinking of applying for the TD First Class Visa Infinite Card? There are only a few days left to apply for it with its welcome bonus of up to 65,000 TD Rewards Points. The limited time offer on the card ends on May 31, 2020


You know that saying "you snooze you lose" well that happened to me as there was an Amex Offers offer that came out this morning that I received for the Platinum Card and Rewards Canada contributor Jeff W. let us know he received on his Marriott Bonvoy American Express card. That offer was a $20 statement credit when you spend $100 at Mastermind toys. A great offer especially for those ordering toy, puzzles and games to help pass the time at home. Back to "you snooze you lose" is that I saw the offer in my email this morning but didn't read the whole email that stated it was limited to first 3,000 cardmembers who register - not the typical five figure numbers we see for other offers. Well by not registering this morning when I first saw it I missed out as the offer is gone now. So kudos to those of you who did get in on it - you'll get to enjoy that $20 credit! Find our complete list of Amex offers here.


There is a targeted offer to celebrate the reopening of Starbucks stores in some provinces across Canada they are offering 25 bonus Starbucks Rewards Stars for every mobile order made until June 7. Check your email to see if you have been targeted!


Aeroplan is planning a big two day eStore Mega Event this weekend. No details have been provided yet but Aeroplan is definitely trying to build the hype for it! As soon as we know what the Mega Event will entail will pass it along!

And finally, have you been thinking of grabbing TD or CIBC cash back credit cards? If so, wait until next week to do so.....
