Jana raised the prices a few months before the full acquisition by Amazon and Amazon lowered those prices, only some of which are actually lower than their initial retail price. After the transition to Amazon, and with the launch of Splash 1.0 (New Lower Prices), the prices were reduced to what you see today. All of the value programs such as Buy Big Save Big, Low Price Great Quality, and 10% Case Discount we’re absorbed under the Everyday Savings (Splash 2.0) umbrella on January 1st despite the global marketing roll-out that is currently coming up. \r\n\r\nThere are a number of ways to save at Whole Foods which include the Everyday Savings items (look for orange signage), buying 365 Everyday Value products, One Day and Annual Sales, Prime promotions ($5 off of Turkeys or Double Dozen Roses), and using the Digital Coupon app. \r\n\r\nAs for the card, you get 5% cash back on Amazon, at Whole Foods and 365 stores, 2% back at restaurants, gas stations and drug stores, and 1% back at all other retailers. \r\n\r\nOffer and details can be found [here](https://www.amazon.com/dp/BT00LN946S) .","subreddit_name":"personalfinance","author":"gangsta_who"},{"body":"If you're a US resident and purchase a lot of stuff from Amazon Prime, I highly recommend their [Amazon Prime Rewards Card](https://smile.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature/dp/BT00LN946S?sa-no-redirect=1).  It offers 3% on all purchases including Amazon Coins.\r\n\r\nThe trick to maximizing your rewards is to *not* apply your accrued cash back balance on purchases (since it reduces your total balance applied to card thus reducing your total cash back).  The best way to redeem your rewards is to direct deposit it back into your checking or savings account and to pay the full balance for each purchase with the card.","subreddit_name":"FFBraveExvius","author":"okey_dokey_bokey"},{"body":"[Amazon prime rewards visa signature card.](https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature/dp/BT00LN946S) They work with Chase for this Visa.

I'd google to be safe.  \r\n\r\nAnyway, you fill out the application and if approved you get the ability to use your new card immediately and get 5% off on Amazon if you've got prime. Also 5% off in Whole Foods, 2% off in restaurants and other benefits. You get the physical card later but you the ability to immediately use it on Amazon if approved online.  \r\n\r\nOh just to be clear - it's a cash back card... so you're getting 5% cash back for Amazon purchases, it's not a direct reduction on your purchase price. You still pay full price for the Vive but you'll get 5% back in cash rewards at the end of each month.","subreddit_name":"Vive","author":"Eldanon"},{"body":"If you're making a lot of purchases off of Amazon, and you have Amazon Prime, the Amazon Prime Visa Rewards card is awesome and doesn't have an annual fee. I believe you get 5% back on Amazon and Whole Foods purchases, 2% on gas/restaurants/drugstores, and 1% back on everything else. If you don't have Prime, the regular Amazon.com rewards has 3% back on Amazon/Whole Foods purchases, and everything else is the same.\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature/dp/BT00LN946S","subreddit_name":"personalfinance","author":"pinsandpearls"},{"body":"https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature/dp/BT00LN946S\r\n\r\nYour link is to the Amazon Platinum Mastercard, not the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature Card.  Perhaps the Prime Rewards card is only available to US residents, or isn't available in the UK?  I don't know the answer to that.","subreddit_name":"personalfinance","author":"a8bmiles"},{"body":"Citi Double Cash is the flat 2% (you get 1% up front when you purchase, and the other 1% when you pay on time). My 3% is Capital One SaviorOne which has 3% on dining and entertainment. There may be better 3% cards out there with no annual fee — I would shop around just in case. [The Amazon Prime card](https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature-Card/dp/BT00LN946S) gets 5% on all Amazon purchases too in case you shop from there a lot.

Regardless, when I look on Amazon it says $60 not $200, even for prime members.\r\n\r\nIf you can get prime, even through a trial, you can get the $200 sub. Also where are you looking? I just google quickly to see and I can see the $200 sub offer. \r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature-Card/dp/BT00LN946S\r\n\r\nYou have to apply for the black card not the blue card.\r\n\r\n\u0026gt; In theory, sure, but I'm just wondering if it would be better to go SUB + cashback (regardless of which cashback card I get) instead of 2x SUB, since I won't be applying for another credit card for like a year or two.\r\n\r\nThe Chase Sapphire Preferred is also a cash back card as well. It pays out in points but can be redeemed just like a cash back card. After one year you can product change it into a Chase Freedom, Freedom Flex, or Freedom Unlimited. All three cards are useful cash back cards too.\r\n\r\nRe-reading your post I see that you have a Discover It Miles card. Call up discover to see if you can product change that card into a regular Discover It card. Last I heard Discover is temporarily not doing product changes for some reason, but that was 2 months ago. See if you can product change that miles card into a more useful card.","subreddit_name":"CreditCards","author":"JigglyJello1"},{"body":"Do you shop at Amazon?

You might be doing a lot of grocery spend.\r\n\r\nYou could also try the Discover It Cashback. You could earn up to 10% back in the first year in rotating categories.\r\n\r\nIf Costco is your thing, then the Citi Costco card is a must have. It gets you 4% on gas, 3% on travel and dining, plus no Foreign Transaction Fee. \r\n\r\n\u0026gt; I see people suggest taking loans to build credit, but I'd really like to avoid that\r\n\r\nYou could do a small $500 secured loan with a Credit Union. You might pay low interest, maybe 1 or 2%, which is like 5 or 10 dollars. It will certainly help but is not necessary. \r\n\r\n\u0026gt;I recently tried to have Capital One raise the CL (online), but they declined it.\r\n\r\nThey're amongst the worst. Had a similar experience with them. They refused to convert my secured card into an unsecured one, for many years. I had unsecured credit limits totalling 30k but Crapital One refused to budge. I finally cancelled that card.","subreddit_name":"CreditCards","author":"RedalMedia"},{"body":"Ok, I believe that could be a negative against you. A totally unscientific test and probably not a 100% indicator, but go to the Amazon site for the Amazon Prime Visa Card by Chase. The pre-qual link is still active and see if you pre-qualify. If you are blacklisted but you have no derogatories, bankruptcies, or major flaws and you don’t qualify, I believe they could be holding that closed account  against you. Again, purely speculative, but knowing I didn’t pre-qual for the Amazon and having a closed-by-creditor account in my history, I wouldn’t apply for the CSP\r\n\r\nEdit: here’s the Amazon pre-qualify link \r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature-Card/dp/BT00LN946S","subreddit_name":"CreditCards","author":"Relevant_Day801"},{"body":"Lots of people will be upgrading this holiday season to get a new headset like Quest 2 or HP Reverb G2.  Or others might upgrade to an Index for higher FOV, refresh, and they want finger tracking.  So that could leave you a lot of options for a great second-hand midrange headset for cheap.\r\n\r\nThese are the used headsets I would be on the lookout for and what I would pay if in good to very good condition: (no particular order)\r\n\r\n* Quest 1 64GB + 3rd party USB C cable for Link ($180 + $20)\r\n* Rift S ($200)\r\n   * Usually going for a bit more than this, but lots of people selling to get a Quest 2 + Link.\r\n* 2017 LCD WMR's Acer, Lenovo, Dell, or Asus ($130-160) \r\n   * These WMR's were on clearance new about a year or two ago for these prices, but those have mostly dried up.\r\n   * Not original HP WMR model, that thing wasn't comfortable for anyone who I had try it. Lenovo and Dell were most comfortable for me.\r\n* OLED WMR Samsung Odyssey or Odyssey + ($150-200) \r\n   * Built in decent headphones, OLED screen, build quality, IPD adjust, and better ergo controllers are great on these.\r\n   * OG Odyssey, is most comfortable stock headset I have ever worn.\r\n* HTC Vive ($200), \r\n   * This would be harder to find as a lot of people parted out this kit to upgrade to Index, so not as common.\r\n\r\nSlightly outside of budget and new, but if you have decent credit and don't have an Amazon credit card some can [get a $100 bonus](https://www.amazon.com/Amazon-Prime-Rewards-Visa-Signature-Card/dp/BT00LN946S).  So you can get a new Quest 2 64GB for \\~$220 with tax.
