Points Expiration is paused until March 31, 2022. Starting March 31, 2022, points will begin to expire 24 months after your latest activity.
In order to maintain Marriot Bonvoy Points, there is a way to open a Bonvoy credit cards (Marriott Bonvoy Boundless credit card / Marriott Bonvoy Bold credit card / Marriott Bonvoy Brilliant American Express Card), or to earn Bonvoy Points through the Bonvoy Partner Program – in my case, using Bonvoy Dining Program.
Before you go out to purchase items you need right away or use your card at a restaurant, check the points earned in eGift cards in the United MileagePlus X app.
Of course, AMC theaters or digital content (Apple Gift Card, Google Play, Nintendo eShop, etc.), and Airbnb, Uber gift cards are also available.
However, before use, in the case of restaurants, the Amex Gold Card earns 4x restaurant points, and Chase Freedom Unlimited, Chase Freedom Flex, and Sapphire Reserve earn 3x at restaurants. If you have the card, if it is 3 times or less in the MileagePlus X app, it means nothing unless you need UA miles right away.
It is, of course, a very convenient way to gift someone.
For example, if you are shopping for TJ Maxx and choose the product you want and there is little chance of return, do not hesitate to open the United MileagePlus X app and purchase a TJ Maxx eGift Card. Choose an amount that is slightly less than that amount.
This is because if you continue to purchase gift cards that are a good deal, you may not be able to use them because you do not have a chance to actually use them, or you may forget to use them.
In addition, as online crime continues to increase, it has become common for gift card balances to disappear one day.
In the case of the TJ Maxx eGift Card, 5 times the amount of miles is accumulated. As soon as you make a purchase, 5x the miles will appear directly in your UA account.
If you are actually planning a trip and you are short of UA miles, the MileagePlus Shopping or MileagePlus Dining programs usually take 2 or 3 days to accumulate after the credit card amount is posted. When you need miles, eGift Cards are the best choice.
To use the eGift card, open the e-mail you received on your smartphone at the counter, click the gift card link, show the barcode to the cashier, scan it, and tell the pin number, and you are done.

As the pandemic continued this year as in last year, I visited Costco very infrequently, and most of them ordered and delivered grocers through the Costco website. Costco Grocery is delivered through instacart, and orders can be placed with only a Costco account without an instacart account.
It’s been a long time since I stopped by Coscro and saw a lot of Korean food. First, the beef bulgogi was placed in the most conspicuous place in the refrigerator with ready-made foods such as pizza and salads. The Beef Bulgogi (Korean BBQ) tag is $6.29 per pound, around 3 pounds, and the price is in the $20 range.
When I get home and eat, there is a little fat on the edges of the meat, so it would be better to remove a little bit and eat it. The taste is sweet and delicious.
Chongga Kimchi is 42.2 ounces and costs $6.49. It may taste a little salty, but it is recommended for kimchi stew or stir-fry depending on your preference.
Tofu is not Pulmuone(Korean Famous Foods Brand) or handmade tofu sold in Korean markets, but it is an organic product and the price is very good. In the case of House Foods products, you can find them a lot in Korean marts.
House Foods costs $5.69 for four 14-ounce packs, and Fountain of Health costs $5.69 for four 16-ounce packs.
Nongshim Udon Bowls are priced at $15.69 for 6 9.73oz bowls.
Bibigo Beef Mandu Dumpling 3 pounds is $11.99, but it was on sale today and was purchased for $7.99. Items on sale at Costco can be easily found on the Costco website. Even without a coupon, the discount is applied at checkout.
The Costco website is https://www.costco.com.
Just click on the Shop Featured Deals banner. There is also a discount online, but the price is slightly higher than in the store.
You can also find chicken dumplings among bibigo dumplings. It’s a bit small, but it’s a good choice for a light snack. The price for 36 pieces is $11.99.
It has been several months since I purchased the Galaxy Watch 3 LTE version through Samsung’s official website. I am using it through Bluetooth connection with an Apple iPhone rather than a Samsung Galaxy series phone.
For several months, the Galaxy Watch 3 was frequently on sale at Amazon, Costco, Sam’s, and Best Buy. Now, the Galaxy Watch 4 has finally been revealed and pre-order has started.
The biggest change in the Galaxy Watch 4 is the operating system. Previously, it was Samsung Tizen, but this time it has been changed to Wear OS.
It is said that health and fitness-related functions have also been significantly improved, but the electrical heart rate sensor (ECG) function, which was previously available in Korea, was not possible in the United States, but there are high expectations whether it will work properly in the United States.
The specifications of the Galaxy Watch 4 released this time are as follows.
In the case of Apple Watch, only iPhone can be connected, but Galaxy Watch and other smart watches such as Fitbit (Versa series, Charge series, etc.) and Garmin work with both iPhone and Android phones.
