    1. TIL: Don't use your points directly on Amazon

      Maybe everyone knows this, but I suspect not. For years, I've been using the points I earn on a Chase Freedom card directly on Amazon. I just found out today that I'm only getting 80% of the value. Redeeming 26,345 points at Amazon yields $210.76. Redeeming 26,345 points on the Chase website (for an Amazon gift card) yields $263.45.

      The Chase Amazon Prime Visa does give 100% of value directly on Amazon's site.

      The one-off series 'Good Omens' from 2019 is getting a follow-up!

      Here's the trailer for Season 2, which is being released on Amazon Prime later this month.

      I only know this as a one-off novel, and a series based on that novel. I didn't expect any form of follow-up.

      However, Neil Gaiman, who is listed as an executive producer and the show-runner for this new season, has supposedly said in the past that he and Terry Pratchett discussed a possible sequel to the novel (although Pratchett gave up on the idea when Gaiman moved to the USA). Maybe Gaiman is going to use ideas from that unwritten sequel for this second series.
