You Can Buy Yourself Flowers...and Get Points!
New Podcast Episode with Brian Kelly, The Points Guy
This week, Busy and Caissie are talking about Busy’s epic garage sale in New York City and how, afterward, they attempted to watch the Super Bowl together by looking in the window of Busy’s neighbor. There is a thorough recap of Ben Affleck’s Dunkin commercial. Then, the day has finally arrived when the women are joined by THE Points Guy, Brian Kelly, who explains which credit cards offer the best programs and perks and how to use them to take the fullest advantage of airline miles and cash back AND NOT BE INTIMIDATED OR CONFUSED! Listen here, now.

First, what was the app TPG was talking about aero???? Second, is he only flying business or first class one way? He never referenced his return flights, but maybe that’s understood. Third and last, my overall thoughts are that this was really helpful and interesting information, but using points for travel still feels like it’s something out of reach for the majority of people. It seems you have to start out with zero credit debt and only charge within your means to avoid the high interest rates that go with these cards, but also how many of us are able to go to a destination based on the flight schedule and not our life schedules? As much as I’d like to make this work, it feels unattainable, but maybe it just means I need to read more.
The garage sale was so nice! We actually had a New York moment and took my new Dutch oven to the bar right around the corner and everyone thought I had brought pot roast! Lol! 😂 Then, on the way home it fit really nice in my backpack and now it’s sitting in my kitchen ready for Texas Chili! Caissie, you were so nice to talk to me and take a pic. I was so nervous to meet you and I’m glad I got to see Busy and get her smile as we left! Thanks so much from Katie AKA Dutch Oven in Milwaukee (Sleepless in Seattle reference)! Hehe
