My copy of Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave arrived!
I bought the game on Amazon using Amazon gift cards I got close to a 20% rebate on, plus 4x Amex Membership Rewards when I bought the gift cards.
I purchased a Nintendo Switch 2 from Dell using $450 in credits from Amex Business Platinum cards and got Rakuten points. (Thanks Carrie Hausfeld Meurer from TrakRak.)
Nintendo Switch 2 is especially great for flights when wi-fi and in-flight entertainment can be bad or nonexistent. Bring your own entertainment.

If you’re an MGM Rewards Platinum member, you’re also eligible to book another comp cruise using the MGM Gold benefit.
The important part: the offer must be attached to your account. If you don’t see it, contact MGM Rewards and Celebrity/Royal Caribbean to verify that it has been added.
Offer code: 26Gold3
I just heard back from a Royal Caribbean representative who verified the offer and confirmed that my cruise must be booked by February 1, 2027, with the cruise completed by April 30, 2027.
Huge thanks to MGM Rewards for such a generous rewards program. Getting two complimentary cruises per year from credit card spending, casino/hotel visits, and gambling is an incredible benefit.

Once again, it's terrible takes from the Dave Ramsey crowd, this time from one of his co-hosts and personalities, George Kamel, who says, "if you wouldn't buy it at full price, don't buy it on sale."
