I spent RM1799 to purchase a 32GB WiFi model & Black color of Ipad on 22 Dec 2012 at IT One Superstore Sdn Bhd, One Utama shopping mall. I swiped my new American Express credit card and able to enjoy 5% cash rebate for the transaction over weekend. I redeemed some free gifts which were 2 cookies jars from Maybank too. In addition, I wish to get additional 15% cash rebate from this credit card. After dinner on that day, I went to Digital Mall, Section 14 PJ to buy iPad cover and screen protector, total expenses was RM115.
