[PROMOTION] 20,000 CIBC Aventura Points and First Year Fee Waived (expired on March 31, 2014)

CIBC decided to waived its annual fee and raise the sign up bonus. Previously, CIBC had the 30,000 sign up bonus Aventura points promotion, but no annual fee waived. Now they reduced the sign up bonus to 20,000 points, but waived the first year annual fee, which I think is the better deal.

Happy Boxing Day! [PROMOTIONS] RBC, Marriott, Petro-Canada (expired on January 6, 2014)

I am going to challenge all of you. Boxing Day can be the day where you regret making so many purchases that you later realize that you didn’t need. Instead, I hope that everyone will make purchases that they will feel good about for the next 6-12 months and because of the good feeling, you will come up with an even better strategy for next year.
