Anyone else get an offer like this? I'm probably going to take them all up: need a birthday present for mum (theatre), new dishwasher and going on a holiday to the GC later in the year.

I received that email too.

I will probably take up all offer as well. I need to get some Stereosonic dance party tickets from Ticketmaster + flights to MEL for that event [I'll fly free using the complimentary flight and my partner will pay for her fare] + I am sure I can I find something to buy at TGG.

Got similar for my plat reserve - didn't include the airline offer. Most likely because I already spend a ton on airline tickets.

No mail in my inbox.

Received this without the airline offer. It's perplexing since my Amex is used solely for retail, no travel.

Hmm petrol stations are classified under "Travel & Transport" so that's probably why.

My spend on my Plat Edge is almost exclusively at petrol stations and supermarkets with the rest going on my Altitude Black Amex...go figure.
