I thought that Discover's last quarter is department stores and all online shopping, not toy and electronic stores...I know that the Citi Dividend has Macy's, electronics, and toy stores this quarter, but not Discover...

I think the real question is: when do they announce 2013 categories?

Re: Discover / Freedom 5% Categories....

All I have to say is Chase better knock it out of the park next year.  This 4th quarter for the Freedom card was a dud.   BCP, Discover and the Cash+ have been filling the gaps quite nicely however.  Come on Chase, flights maybe but Bust Buy sucks!!!!

Amex BCP/BC/Zync - Amex Business GR - Barclays NFL Visa Sig 49ers/Arrival - BoA BBR - Cap 1 Quicksilver - Citi Forward/Preferred - Chase Amazon/Freedom/Ink Plus - Discover IT - Fidelity Amex - GECRB Amazon/Walmart - PenFed PRV - Target - USAA Amex - US Bank CASH+/Club Carlson
