I woke up this morning to some tidbits of good news and wanted to share.

Via One Mile At A Time, the process to book the Citi Prestige 4th night free benefit has improved for the better. Citi recently switched concierge companies to Aspire Lifestyles Concierge. Previously, you would call up Citi, and then they would jot down your contact information and request and pass it along to Carlson Wagonlit Travel, who would get back to you in a day or 2 by email or phone.

EDIT: Whole Foods has sued Raise as well as sued or threatened to sue other gift card reselling sites. No site will take Whole Foods currently.

H/T to Esther: Gyft is offering a bonus $20 Whole Foods gift card with a $100 gift card purchase with code WFMWISH, which is 83.33% of the normal price. Limit 3 per household (or while supplies last). Also, earn 5x Ultimate Rewards points when you pay via PayPal with a Chase Ink card. You can try a shopping portal as well but unsure it will work.
