Right now i'm using the Amex gold premier card to rack up points but i'm looking for something better for my needs. Here's a list of where most of money goes.
Traveling (Gas,tolls,metrocards etc.)
Entertainment (Concerts & sporting events)
Groceries (Get 90% of my stuff at BJs)
Dining out
Drugstores
Shopping for clothes & shoes. (I have a BR card which is where I do most of my shopping)
I go on a vacation or two every year so something that would go towards that would be nice. You could also throw another 1 or 2 road trips. I guess anything that would maximize the use of the points would be great.
What do you guys recommend ?

-$75 AF
-6% groceries up to $6000 annually
-3% gas and department stores unlimited

Sallie Mae

-5% gas up to $250 monthly
-5% bookstores (includes Amazon) up to $750 monthly
-1% everything else
-Very likely to get a World MasterCard
