Discover Card Testing Extras Program

Discover Extras

A couple months ago my sister alerted me that her Discover More card was given access to a new feature upon logging into her account called Discover Extras. However, I was not able to see the program on any of our families Discover Cards. Fortunately, I was able to contact Discover and have the trial program added to my Miles account.

The Discover Extras program is very similar to the American Express Sync program. The Discover Extras programs works with businesses to offer additional benefits just for using your Discover card to make a purchase.

So for example, this past weekend our Discover Extras program shows a $20 statement credit after spending $200 with Travelocity by 9/13/13.

The great thing about this program is you do not need to sign up, besides being targeted to take place in the promo. So you can continue to shop at the places you do anyways, and when the statement comes, you may find yourself with a lot more cashback credit/bonus/miles.

Hopefully this program sees some success and continues to grow.

Legoland Florida Free Child Ticket with Adult Ticket


Update 4/4/12: For the latest Legoland discounts to all of the parks, please see our new page highlighting all the current Legoland offers.

Update 1/4/12: The Pepsi promotion is now officially over; however, the McDonald’s offer is still available and working.

Update 12/6/11: I found another great deal on the very popular promotion to buy and adult ticket and get a free child ticket. Visit www.legoland.com/mcdonalds and enter the promo code 11090603. This promotion with McDonald’s expires 3/31/12.

Here is the best part of the offer; unlike previous deals, these tickets purchased through the above link are valid for a year from the purchase date. Plan ahead now for the next year, and you could save your family a tremendous amount of money.

Update 11/17/11: Per comment below, I have received confirmation from Legoland officials that the tickets from this promotion can be upgraded to add a day for an additional $15/ticket. Visit the ticket office for details.

Update 11/1/11: Per the comment below from Ann, if you are purchasing multiple adult and free child tickets, you can place them in the same order, just be sure to apply the promotional code multiple times to receive the discount.

Update 10/26/11: The price of tickets increased $10 each effective October 14, 2011 at midnight. Please see this Legoland discount thread with all of the latest discounts.

Back in July I talked about the opening of the Legoland in Florida on October 15, 2011. Well low-and-behold, as we near the grand opening, some discounts have started to appear.

This discount is not the typical Legoland magazine coupon, but rather one everyone can get online. The promotion is being run in combination with Pepsi at the following domain:

Go to www.legoland.com/pepsi and enter promo code: 11090601

Child tickets cost $55 each, so this is a substantial discount. Yes it will be off-peak season, but that is a nice incentive to take the kids.

I ran a quick example to make sure everything works correct with the coupon code.

Note, that I tried applying the code with two adult and two child tickets, and it only gave me the discount for a single child admission. Therefore, I recommend placing separate orders to maximize the savings. I do not have an expiration for this deal, so you might want to order early as they may pull the promotion at any time.

If you were able to save some money using this promotion, please comment or let me know, as I would love to hear about your experience at Legoland Florida. In addition, if you have not already, please consider joining me on Facebook, to get all of the latest travel and financial discounts and news. Thanks!

Update: While I still have been unable to track down an expiration of the coupon code above, there is a similar deal on specially marked Pepsi cans in the region. That offer expires December 24, 2011, so there is a good chance the above code may also expire at that time.

Discover Card Raises Groupon Cashback Bonus Back to 15%

ShopDiscover

Back in June we “discovered” that the Discover Card cashback bonus program had lowered the Groupon program from 15% down to only 10%. The caveat was that Discover changed the terms to allow Groupon Getaways and Groupon Goods to earn the full 10% cashback bonus.

Over the weekend I was alerted by reader Bailey Y. that Discover has since raised the Groupon cashback bonus back up to 15%. This is great news. However, Discover card holders need to be aware that the terms of what qualifies has been revised as well.

Offer not valid on Getaways, Occasions, Live & Now, Epic Deals, Groupon Gift Cards, Groupon Reserve and Charity Promotions
