I know it sounds funny but I never realized a credit card could actually save me money. Ever since I opened my American Express, I have been racking up some great deals.
One of the current deals is for a $5 credit on your statement when you spend $5 or more at a Redbox machine. That means that you make the rental and Amex will "pay" the bill. $5 worth of free movie rentals is a good deal.
Link > Like > Love helps you save when making specific purchases. It requires you to link your American Express card with a Facebook account. If you're worried, check out the American Express website first for their FAQs about the app.
Allowing the app permission to your information, including your friends information, and linking your Card will only be used so that American Express can provide you with an exclusive, customized list of deals within Facebook, and send statement credits to your Card account when you meet offer criteria. It will not be used for anything else. Card linking occurs on a secure American Express site. Your Card information will never be shared with Facebook.
Remember to be safe with any credit card. A free deal today can be costly if you carry a balance and pay a high interest rate. For some great tips, check out my archived post Credit Cards: The Good, The Bad, and The Truth.
