AMEX Offers: Get $10 Back on purchases at Big Lots and Orchard (YMMV)

AMEX Offers are by definition YMMV, since we don’t know if AMEX makes these offers available on every credit card account or a subset of the accounts. The easiest way to find out is to logon to your AMEX account and look at the Offers section below the “Recent Activity”.

Bubbling around at the moment are two pretty good offers if you like to make general purpose purchases, especially for homeowners. As you can see in the screenshot below…

… you get $10 back on a $40+ purchase at Orchard Supply Stores (or their website). Separately, you get $10 back as a statement credit on a $50+ purchase at Big Lots brick and mortar stores (not their website).

It is important to note that while the offers expire by the expiration date shown there, the window to sign up for the offer (the simple task of pressing the “Add to Card” button) is often smaller. Some of these offers have a limited number of activations, so if there’s an offer you may need, add it to your card as soon as you see it.
