Amazon Day Delivery - A Great Way to Get 6% Cash Back (for Prime Visa Cardholders)
Welcome to Saving Money with Andrew!
One of my favorite online shopping pastimes is racking up no-rush shipping credits at Amazon, and so I shed a silent tear when they stopped appearing as often at checkout.
But an even better replacement appeared—Amazon has now begun offering 6% cashback on certain orders when you choose Amazon Day delivery. It’s not clear why I started receiving this offer, but it only appears to go to holders of the Amazon Prime Chase Visa and it started appearing after I had accumulated a substantial amount of shipping credits.
This is a great deal when Amazon accounts for a lot of your spending (as it does for us). We use the Prime Visa only for Amazon for 5% back, and the Citi Double Cash Card for 2% cash back on everything else, earning us hundreds of dollars per year in rewards at a blended rate of about 2.5% cash back on our spending.[1]
If you have any other good Amazon shopping tips and tricks, please let me know!
And now, Andrew’s pick(s) of the week:
If you like reality TV at all, and probably even if you don’t, I think you’ll enjoy Jewish Matchmaking and its easily bingeable season of eight 30-minute episodes.
I hope this has been helpful. If you liked it, please share it on social media! Also, please send me your feedback, requests, and success stories.
