The big shopping season is coming. Most of credit card issuers have launched their promotions. For example, discover is offering $20 cash back for every $200 in purchases made with discover card (this post). Citi Dividend MasterCard is offering 5% cash back for purchases made at department, electronics and apparel stores for 3 months (this post). American Express offers to double your rewards points (post 1 and post 2). Furthermore, they are offering buy 5 gift cards get 1 $25 Gadget Lover’s card free (this post).

This morning I received an email (got the mail in the evening) from Chase for my Chase Freedom Card. The Chase Rewards Plus+ is following the other credit card issuers to join the promotion campaign. The offers are very attractive. They offer cash back and most offers will expire on 12/31/2007.

Some featured merchants:

Circuit City 4% Target 7% Sears 5% JCPenney 5% OverStocks.Com 5% Walmart.Com 3% OfficeDepot 4% Staples 3% Dell Home 3% Newegg.Com 2% Toshiba 2% Buy.Com 2% OfficeMax 3% Apple 2% GNC.Com 6%

In order to see whether the price will change or not, I made a simple comparison. I found that the price of Apple iPod Touch is same as the one we can see directly from Target.com ($299.99)
