Travelers Cash-In When Using Credit Cards

Using your credit cards sometimes offers good deals, even if you aren’t counting on the credit card rewards program.  Here are two promotions your travels might let you take advantage of:
Receive $25 off a round trip flight through Southwest when you purchase a Southwest gift card with a value of at least $100.  Purchase the giftcard online with your Visa card before June 30th to qualify (only United States issued Visa cards will qualify).  The $25 discount must be applied on Southwest tickets purchased between July 1 and Aug 30th, and you must purchase your tickets with at least seven days advanced notice of the date of travel.
Go to www.southwest.com/rapidrewards/giftcardvisa.html for more info.
Get a $25 Visa gift card when you pay for your Marriott Hotel and Resort reservation with your Visa credit card.  Staying on a Friday or Saturday is required, and you must give code “V12″ when booking your hotel stay.  There are some restrictions.  Visit www.marriott.com for more info.
I heard about these deals through Tom Parsons of The Dallas Morning News.
