AMEX Offers: Conrad Hotels, Waldorf Astoria, Charles Tyrwhitt, Sony

Current AMEX offers include Conrad Hotels, Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts, Charles Tyrwhitt and Sony. They could be a good way to jumpstart your holiday shopping, or take a break from it. Note that the Charles Tyrwhitt offer expires today, so you'll want to purchase an email gift certificate to ensure you get your statement credit.

Enrolling in Your AMEX Shopping Offers

1. Log into Your AMEX Account

2. Scroll Down to the Bottom and Click on AMEX Offers for You

3. Read Offer Terms and Click on “Save Offer”

4. Spend the Required Amount Before the Deadline

Here are the details for the Conrad Hotels, Waldorf Astoria, Charles Tyrwhitt and Sony AMEX offers:

1. Conrad Hotels: $75 Back After Spending $400

U.S. locations only
Reserve directly with Conrad Hotels or as a TravelSort Client or with your Travel Advisor
Save offer to your AMEX card and use that card to pay
Stay must be between 11/3/14 – 3/31/15
Corporate and prepaid AMEX cards not eligible
Not valid for stays paid for before the promotion starts or after the promotion ends
Limit 1 statement credit per American Express card across all offer channels

It's unfortunate that only U.S. Conrad locations are eligible, which rules out some of the best Conrad properties, such as the Conrad Koh Samui and the Conrad Maldives. The U.S. Conrads are less impressive, but if you have plans anyway to stay at the Conrad New York, Conrad Chicago, Conrad Miami, or Conrad Indianapolis this winter, you may as well save $75 if you anticipate spending at least $400.

2. Waldorf Astoria Hotels & Resorts: $100 Back After Spending $500

U.S. locations only
Reserve directly with Waldorf Astoria as a TravelSort Client or with your Virtuoso Travel Advisor

Corporate and prepaid AMEX cards not eligible
Not valid for stays paid for before the promotion starts or after the promotion ends
Limit 1 statement credit per American Express card across all offer channels

As with the Conrad offer, it's unfortunate that this is limited to U.S. properties only. Of Waldorf's U.S. properties, I'd recommend the ones below, and have also listed their Virtuoso benefits, which apply only if you book with TravelSort or Virtuoso travel advisor:

3. Charles Tyrwhitt: $30 Back After Spending $100

My husband hates shopping even more than I do (and I dislike it enough that I buy pretty much everything except perishable groceries on Amazon.com). As a result, I usually end up buying his dress shirts, and my go-to is Charles Tyrwhitt. It's really unfortunate that it's no longer participating in the Ultimate Rewards shopping portal, so the next best thing is getting $30 off of $100, and going through the Hawaiian shopping portal for 5X.

Here are the AMEX offer details–note the offer is only valid through today, 11/9/14, so buy a $100 emailed gift certificate to ensure you get your AMEX statement credit, then use the gift certificate at your leisure.

Get a one-time $30 statement credit after using your enrolled AMEX card to spend $100 or more at ctshirts.com by 11/9/14
Limit 1 statement credit per American Express online account

4. Sony: $25 Back After Spending $100

If you're buying a Sony camera or accessories, don't forget to first click through your favorite online shopping portal to pick up a few more bonus points for your Sony purchases, although you'll need to use your enrolled AMEX card to pay to earn the $25 statement credit. Note that you may be offered a better deal by chatting with a Sony rep through the chat function–see New Travel Camera: Maximize Points or Improved Warranty Coverage?

Get a one-time $25 statement credit by using your enrolled AMEX card to spend a total of $100 or more in-store at Sony or online at store.sony.com by 2/3/15
Excludes Sony Entertainment, Sony Pictures and B2B purchases
