The bargain is for Red Cross, they get free money
Aren’t you still out of pocket after tax returns?
Yes, that's kind of how donations work…
if you had planned to donate to help your tax returns
How the hell would this help your tax return? You only get a portion of what you donate back.
I have Donate $70 or more, get $20 back
Yeah I got that too. Much better deal $20 cash back in a few days plus a $70 tax deduction.
Interesting to know if AMEX can also claim some kind of deduction or subsidy out of this promo.
Seen from the Red Cross Website: If you receive a material benefit for your donation then it is not tax deductible: for example, if you receive points or another material benefit from your credit card provider. Donating to a deductible gift recipient will likely reduce your overall taxable income, which in turn may reduce the amount of tax you are required to pay.
Which part is the bargain?
