Favorite Rewards System

I love getting freebies! Doesn't everyone? ;)

This is not an advertisement, more like a sharing... over time I have gotten some good free stuff with my Citibank credit card point rewards.

The best thing about Citibank points is they never expire, as long as the card is not cancelled. If the credit card is upgraded, the points are all carried forward. Because of this feature, I was able to accumulate more points over time to redeem good stuff instead of misc items.

What I have redeemed in past years of being a Citibank card user as following:


Princess Combi 5 piece cooking set

Panasonic Stand Fan x2 (we got 2 for different rooms)

La gourmet 1.5L Wonder Thermal Cooker (so useful for cooking 1 person's portion - mainly used for Shanna)

Latest redemption is an Anshin Stainless Steel 1.8L Rice Cooker/Steamer

The redemption process is very fast and easy. Starting with logging on to Citibank online website, where my points balance shows up. Then I browse and select the item to redeem, key in my shipping address, then that's all done. Usually 2 days later, the redeemed product arrives at my house usually via Citilink courier service. The whole process does not cost me any $$ and most impressive is the speed of the redeemed item arriving in my hands from the time I initiate the redemption.

We are not heavy credit card users by the way, in case you were wondering. Most points are accumulated with biz/personal travel-related expenses.

I guess with the good rewards system, and also the fact that I was never charged any credit card fees, I will continue to waive off all other credit card sales people that come my way at shopping malls ;)
