Earn $200 cash rewards bonus with this incredible card

There's a credit card that's making waves with its amazing bonus and benefits. The Wells Fargo Active Cash^® Card (Rates and fees) has no annual fee and you can earn $200 after spending $500 in purchases in the first 3 months.

The Active Cash Card puts cash back into your wallet. Cardholders can earn unlimited 2% cash rewards on purchases — easy! That's one of the best cash rewards options available.

This card also offers an intro APR of 0% for 12 months from account opening on purchases and qualifying balance transfers (then 19.74%, 24.74%, or 29.74% Variable). Which is great for someone who wants a break from high interest rates, while still earning rewards.

The best part? There's no annual fee.

Comeback Sauce

Along with a new chicken offering, KFC has also dropped a new sauce on its menu. The Comeback Sauce is described as zesty and creamy, meant to pair perfectly with the Original Recipe chicken.

Got a sweet tooth? You'll love the new cherry pie in the form of bite-size poppers. The flaky crust and gooey cherries will be the perfect dessert after your meal.

Cranberry Lemonade

Cranberry season is starting a little bit early this year with a limited-time Cranberry Lemonade. This beverage is perfect for everybody anticipating the Thanksgiving feast.

Bottom line

If the new menu items sound delicious to you, you'll want to take advantage of the "13 Days of Daily Deals" event between Oct. 19–31.

You'll need to sign up for the KFC Rewards members program, but then the deals will drop every day with additional points that go toward free KFC for you in the future.

Dropping fast food is often one of the first steps to tackle rising grocery costs, but signing up for rewards programs at your favorite chains can help make the occasional treat more affordable.
