Just a heads up on a semi-related topic -- most credit cards are doing away with (or have done away with) Price Protection, which allows you to get a credit-- my card is $500 at a time and $2500 a year -- if you buy something that ends up being cheaper later (within 90 days I think). I am going to try to buy a new tv using a method I saw on AVS forum where you bid on a tv at a website called greentoe (which has legit sellers), and then find a cheaper price online from a less legit company and use price protection to get a credit for the difference. Issue is that I need to do it by Aug 28 because that is when price protection goes away on my credit card.
Wife and I are thinking about getting a AAdvantage Mileup card (no fee, 2x AA miles on AA and groceries) to complement Chase Sapphire Preferred. Almost all our flying is on AA and is mostly to our hometowns w/ kids. Dumb idea, smart, just ok?
This is interesting as a complement to CSP: groceries are my only big expenditure not covered by CSP double miles. And all the double miles on AA would be useful too because CSP won't transfer directly to AA (only through British Airways).Wife and I are thinking about getting a AAdvantage Mileup card (no fee, 2x AA miles on AA and groceries) to complement Chase Sapphire Preferred.

No the juicecrew mentioned plat is different than the mileup card. The plat is the 50k or 60k bonus card depending on if you have a mailer. Although the word on the street is that you can apply for whatever bonus and then send Citi a secure mesg chat after approved and ask to get bumped up to a larger bonus. Just say you saw a mailer or something. They will only bump you 20k miles above what you got originally.This is interesting as a complement to CSP: groceries are my only big expenditure not covered by CSP double miles.

How does this compare to the other AAdvantage card (currently on 60,000 bonus)? Is this the platinum JuiceCrew mentions above?
It is the groceries that are especially intriguing (thinking more long-term than bonuses), because travel and restaurants are already double on CSP. No annual fee is also a perk.

Like Tuffalo, i think, I'm not doing any churning. I'm just looking to complement the CSP which i use for pretty much everything right now. So i think I'm coming at this with different priorities than you, juicecrew.
Re: the bonus, they're advertising the 60k on domestic flights. I've seen it like a dozen times in the last month or two.
Also, dumb question, but what do those 60k miles count towards? Reward flights, obviously, but do they don't count as EQM miles, right?
Ha, thanks for this. I've already requalified for gold for next year. It's amazing how much quicker it goes once you already have it. The rich get richer. Doubt I'll make platinum this year but that would make me feel like a baller because I'm pretty poor.Just aware miles. Afraid status is not that easy!
never done this -- how annoying are the logistics of getting the credit?
