If you have not used up your weekend 5% rebate, then MBB2 AMEX is the card you should use. Do charge to your card after 2pm today. Any transaction done through Paypal before 2pm today will be recorded as transaction made on Friday.

thanks for your reply, so even with 2.5%+0.5% charges, benefits of Amex will offset the Visa? noob in this

*din know it should be done after 2pm, i thought weekend rebate starts from 00.01am onwards. thanks for letting me know..luckily haven pay
