1,500 Bonus U.S. Bank FlexPoints Holiday Offer

Merry early Holiday Season to me! Well not really, as this offer is not too much to jump for joy, but it is still bonus points none-the-less.

FlexPerks 2012 Holiday Bonus

What graced me in my email this week was a chance to add bonus U.S. Bank FlexPerks FlexPoints to my balance for $1,000 in spend between November 1 to December 31, 2012.

What this promotion in essence means is that they will give you 2.5% in points for your $1,000 in spend. Considering spending $1,000 over the holidays is not too difficult, this will be a nice little bonus for switching our spend back over to this card, seeing as it has been in our safe for a couple months.

For reference, here is our article highlighting why we decided to add the U.S. Bank FlexPerks card to our wallet. We applied right before going on our trip-of-a-lifetime to Hawaii, and easily met all the minimum spend requirements. We are now sitting on a pile of 40,000+ FlexPoints that can be redeemed for $800 in airfare in the future.
