We are calling this the Wild Card challenge, because we've created wild card decks. Our contestants will pick from a deck of cards to select hotel, airline and transferable point credit cards.
Carrie
So, just like a real card game, they're going to have to pick some cards they don't want. They're going to have to pick some cards that make their life harder and then some cards that make their life easier.
Carrie
We then follow that up with a live stream on September the 9th. And so that's when the guys are going to be picking their cards.
