American Express Small Business Saturday Participation Result

How did your participation in the Small Business Saturday go? Mine is great by the way and I would like to share it here! I had three of my American Express Cards registered for this promotion and on November 24th, Saturday I went out to dine with some friends at a local restaurant in the area. 

Our bill for three amounted to $96.79, so I went ahead to ask our fine server to split the bill into three, charging a third on each card. Here is how it breaks down to, a triple dip:
