Amazon has some great deals today if you can still catch them. It’s funny how when they do the yearly Amazon fest or whatever it’s called they would time deals like these for an hour or so but these will last all day. The deals end at 11:59pm December 29.
Uber Gift Card $5 Off
Go Uber on Amazon and click the $50 box then send it to yourself or someone else. At checkout enter promo code UBER. That will bring down the cost to $45. Easiest free $5 ever! If you want to stack that with 5% back on Discover at Amazon you save even more!
$10 Amazon Credit with HBO Now
You can get a $10 Amazon.com Credit when you Subscribe to HBO NOW. You could subscribe to it then cancel it and make a profit. Here is the HBO Offer on Amazon. Note: You need to have an Andriod device for this offer to work. They do not have HBO Now on Amazon for ios yet apparently.

The Starbucks BOGO promotion was one of the biggest hits of the year so far and now they are running another great promotion. This comes in handy while you’re traveling or out running errands or Christmas shopping. This is Friends & Family weekend at Starbucks, and you can save 30% on almost any store purchase if you’re in the US.
Simply follow this link and enter your mobile number, and you’ll immediately be texted a coupon code for 30% off a purchase this Saturday or Sunday (December 2 or 3, 2017).

UBER has unleashed a new version of the Ride Pass and it will probably not be as limited with sign-ups as the previous ones. This is mainly because UBER seems to be making more money from the Ride Pass this time around and you can only select one route you want a flat fare on. Read more about our first review of Ride Passes here and about UBER Rideshare discounts here.
The Pros:
-$3.99 to Free Delivery Fee Paid One-Time by signing up for this Ride Pass.
-Possibly 20% off your rides
The Cons:
-It costs $9.99 instead of the $5.99 before they charged to sign up and you get less in return.
-In our tests in the Houston area we were not impressed that it was 20% off. The price may have been marked up as it seemed higher than normal fares.
-No real fare difference on the selected choice route but maybe a few dollars or so. We’re not sure what the advantage of this Ride Pass is but we will test it more. (more…)

Silvercar Rental Review
I first learned about Silvercar when they came to Dallas a few years ago but never really had a need for them because they were not in a city I had planned to rent a car in until now. I’ve seen all the sites from Ebates to Retailmenot posting promo codes but never really understood how the car rental site worked compared to Budget or Hertz.com.
Pretty sure I have the hang of it now and just in time for a last minute July 4th Vacation in Denver, CO. I have been so worried about this trip because my family will be outside of Denver and I will need a rental car of some kind. So I researched on Kayak.com and then over on the Citi Thank You points site. I also looked over at Budget.com where I am used to putting in coupon codes to save 20% or so.
