Staying in this week and weekend since we were on vacation to visit college friends last week in Kansas and we leave for Key West on Tuesday for my brother's wedding a week from today. The best part on top of the 5% CB for food, is the wifey and I both have 0% interest until January. She also has a Freedom so when we likely top off my card this quarter for food, we'll switch food spending to hers. I think I'm already at $30 cash back and we're 17 days in lol. I'm sure that trip to Kansas definitely helped us earn cash back faster than we normally would. Plus my Flagship card is at $45 (if redeemed for travel) mostly from that trip before we hit April 1st...
Add on a NFCU 0% balance transfer offer which we'll be using to move our hotel and rental car expenses to after maximizing on points which makes me a super happy camper and I can keep my New Years resolution going (not paying a cent in credit card interest this year)
Hopefully this is the view from our room

Be careful with this one. I'm not 100% how Chase distinguishes, but I know my Citi card (also a Visa) distinguishes between Bars and Restaurants that have a bar. The former gets base 1%, while the latter gets the full 5%.
I'm thinking of getting some Jamaican Ital food - to break the monotony of my diet Mon-Fri lol
Followed by a visit to an awesome local vegan bakery!
