This is a great time to stock up on gift cards. And of course, if you have a Chase Ink Bold, or Chase Ink Plus card you’ll get 5X Chase Ultimate Rewards points on your purchases.

I’m guessing this is a fluke and the error may be fixed by the morning. Because while I was there with Mr. Pickles (who texted me about the deal), the manager got a call from his district manager asking what was going on.

Perhaps it had something to do with the volume of cards being purchased but the manager relayed that the district manager had been getting calls from all his stores.

Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card

The Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card is the best card to get started in the world of miles and points. It is the first card you should get to start traveling for free because the welcome offer is 60,000 points after spending $4,000 in the first three months.

My favorite perks about this card are earning 5X points on travel when booked through the Chase portal (2X if direct purchase), 3X points on dining, $50 yearly credit on hotels booked through the Chase portal, no foreign transaction fees, and transferring points to 13 airline and hotel partners like Hyatt, United, and Southwest.
