Rewarding Recap: Monday, April 23

It’s time for another roundup of savings, deals, and free points opportunities.

Just Another Points Traveler shares an offer for 40% off TUMI luggage. It’s a great deal if you happen to be in the market for the brand. However, I think there are better offers out there given it’s still $300+ after the discount. I personally love my Victorinox NXT 4.0 carryon, although the new 5.0 series isn’t nearly as good. I bought a Travelpro Crew 8 for Megan, currently under $150, and I think that’s where I would put my money if I were buying a new bag today.

Deals We Like shares a one-day sale from JetBlue for 50% off travel this weekend and 30% off travel next weekend. Use code CHEEPS50 for travel April 28 through May 1 and CHEEPS30 for travel May 5 through May 8. You better get cracking to take advantage of these!

If you’re looking into summer vacations, Live from a Lounge shares a range of discounts on travel by Jet Airways, mostly to destinations in the Middle East, India, and Southeast Asia for 5 to 15% off.

Frequent Miler tells us how to use a new offer from TopCashBack to purchase Visa gift cards from Staples with virtually no loss. Yes, you’ll have to “pre-pay” for all your future expenses by buying the gift cards now, but at least you can be sure you’ll reach your minimum spend requirements and get 5X Ultimate Rewards points on all purchases.

The Frugal Travel Guy is giving away 2,500 free American Airlines AAdvantage miles to one lucky person who shares a great AA fare by 11:59 EDT tonight.

You can also earn double redeemable miles on American when you travel from Chicago (ORD), Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW), or New York (JFK) to Madrid nonstop on either American Airlines or Iberia this spring. Register with code MAD2X.

For those of you not traveling, get 500 AAdvantage miles just by requesting a car or home insurance quote from Liberty Mutual Insurance.
