"HERE'S HOW IT WORKS: Once your enrollment is complete, you will earn 5 ThankYou Points per $1 spent on things you buy every day at grocery stores, gas stations and drugstores - even commuter transportation expenses through 06/30/14. Earn up to 4,000 additional points.*" So, I spend $800 to get a $20 statement credit? I guess I'll enroll, but it won't be the focus of my spending.
Ditto for DH on his AT&T Universal card, but he has 2,500 point limit.

+1 Mods please think about this.

Yep, I got the offer on my Premier card and was excited to see the 5% gas only to be disappointed to see it limited to $25. Oh well, better than nothing but I'll use my BCP for groceries at 6% but use citi until I max it out.
Just to clarify, mine for for 5% on gas and grocercies with 4 bonus points maxed at 2500 "additional" points....so, for me that's 2500 additional points divided by 4 bonus points...this a $625 ($48 a week on gas) spend for $25. Although the spend max and earning limits are weak, it's still 5%, just can't do much with it at 1:1.
