The Amex Offers program frequently has promotions that can save you money or earn you bonus points for purchases you’d make anyway. While I usually focus on offers for travel (particularly for hotel stays and airlines), there’s a fantastic shopping offer at the moment that I plan to take advantage of.
Spend $250 with Neiman Marcus, get 5K bonus points
There’s a new targeted Amex Offer deal whereby you can earn 5,000 bonus Membership Rewards points when you spend $250+ in one or more transactions with Neiman Marcus. The offer is valid for purchases through June 6, 2023.
There’s also a version out there for a $50 statement credit rather than a 5,000 Membership Rewards points bonus, though I’d definitely prefer the points bonus. That’s because I value Membership Rewards points at 1.7 cents each, so that’s the equivalent of an $85 return, by my valuation, getting you over a one-third discount on such a purchase.
Do be aware of the following terms:
- This is valid both in-store at US locations and online at neimanmarcus.com
- Excludes gift cards purchased in-store or online, restaurants and cafés located in-store, and Gift Now transactions
- Not valid for Neiman Marcus Last Call, Cusp by Neiman Marcus, The Heart of Neiman Marcus, or purchases shipped outside of the US
While I’m not usually a Neiman Marcus customer, the reason I think this is worth highlighting is that most high-end department stores have standardized pricing for big brand items.
For example, whether you’re looking for perfume or skincare products or candles or many clothing items, you’ll pay the same for a specific brand no matter where you buy it.
If you make a purchase online, be sure you also use an online shopping portal to earn even further rewards.
Bottom line
If you’d otherwise consider making a purchase with another high-end department store, this is definitely a reason to shop with Neiman Marcus instead. I value the 5,000 Membership Rewards points at a roughly 35% return, plus whatever you’d earn through a shopping portal and your credit card spending.
