Thanks all, some great tips here. Speaking of Southwest, I just saw $200 gift cards for them at Raleys, with no discernable fee. That means 6% back on air travel with my BCP, assuming a $2000 grocery charge doesn't light up the FR alerts lol. Maybe a domestic flight here and there..


Not too shabby How close will you be to your 6500 dollar groceries cap lol 


Damn, good point. I would eat up the grocery cap fast that way. However I could bring in my Sallie for $250/mo damage control - currently using it only for gas. 

Edit p.s. isn't it only 6k cap?


6500 is BCP cap. SM if i get approved for it in october will take over gas and groceries , BCP will probably be PC'ed to Blue cash or BCE


I'm pretty sure the BCP cap on groceries in $6k, not $6,500.  Is that not correct?


You are right i was mistakened i don't know why i thought it was 6500. I don't know maybe i got it mixed up with roth IRA contribution cap per year for Senior citizens  :-(


 


Lol, either that or the minimum spend needed to hit the 5% threshold on the BC.
