Starbucks Reload Stacking

Image
I never turn on auto refill - look for a reload option when your low There will almost always be a reload deal This one is for AmExp (Hilton Card) and expires 10/4/21 If you don't have an AmExp you could also do PayPal Discover deal for the same cash back minus the Points (no Points Stacking) I know, save your money from coffee but I use Starbuck more on the road for a road trip office I know I cut this one close

Disney and Lego's both 10% off

LEGO - 10% Cashback You can often find Disney items on sale but LEGOs are not as easy to find at a discount. Even better that you can stack with your credit card points earning. shopDisney.com lego.com If you don't have a Rakuten account it doesn't cost you anything so check it out

[Planning] West Coast Parks

Image
Trip Outline: I just booked a flight for a week Road Trip with my Dad to hit some National Parks and, of course, the bigger coaster parks. Parks: Red Rock Canyon Death Valley National Park Sequoia National Park King's Canyon National Park California's Great America (Cedar Fair) Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk Discovery Kingdom (Six Flags) Yosemite National Park Magic Mountain (Six Flags) Knott's Berry Farm (Cedar Fair) Couldn't fit in Joshua Tree National Park, Sea World San Diego, or Channel Island National Park - just ran out of time. Also, the list may need to be changed because of wild fires in the area (dry September 2021) Anchor Airports: LAS (Los Vegas) -- I know, not really an anchor for the coasters but only direct flight we could get LAX (Los Angeles) SFO (San Francisco) Any thoughts/ideas? Sound off in the comments....

We lucked out, with only a little rain and shorter than usual lines. HHN was by far the best Halloween event I have ever been to, and I can see why it's so well known.
