Earn Triple Avios for Ebags (24 per $), Bed Bath (12 per $), Apple (6 per $), Neiman Marcus (18 per $) and many more

Dave wanted to buy an Amazon Echo for his mother. The price on Amazon is $179.99. He was ready to spend that and not even look for a better price or a portal to earn cashback, points or miles.

Blasphemy, I said. 

So, first I googled for a better price. That took, what 3 minutes? I learned that Bed Bath and Beyond has the exact product on sale for $139.99

That’s a $40 savings right there.

But wait!

Then I took a quick look at CashBackMonitor.com to see if there were any portals offering cash or points.

Woh! – British Airways Mall is offering 12 Avios per $! That’s about 2000 avios!

I followed the link to the British Airways Avios Mall and learned that there is currently a special promo – TRIPLE AVIOS – for a number of retailers for purchases through May 31st.

Here is the LINK.

This is an awesome promo.

For less than 5 minutes of research, Dave not only saved $40 but he also earned about 2000 Avios.

Who won? Dave and Dave’s mom.

What’s the lesson? Always double check for a better price and always check shopping portals.

What would be even more awesome? If Dave checked for this himself (and he used a credit card that earned even more points or cash).
