What are your favorite rewards cards?

In the past few months I've started collecting rewards cards. I like rewards!!

 

What are your favorite rewards cards, and what rewards do you get?

 

I have Kroger 1-2-3 rewards that I use for gas - the extra 5 cents off a gallon, after cashing in fuel points, is like getting 5% off gas.

Amex BCP that I use for groceries

Barclay UPromie cards that I use for any online purchase from company that gives UPromise rewards since the card gives an additional 5% on top of the company rewards, and 10% on Tuesdays.

Discover IT for anything that would fall into 1% cash back from all other cards, and whatever their 5% category is (I'm in the double cash back, so would get 2% or 10% at year end)

I was just approved for Cap1 QS - when my double cash back ends on discover, this will become my go to card for things that don't fall into rewards category since its 1.5%

Re: What are your favorite rewards cards?

Im not a big fan on the rotating category 5% cash  back cards, although I should be! Except I often already have the specfic card that the bonus is giving. Therefore, I usually shop through a chase or barclays portal.

 

but my favorite rewards are; QuickSilver Visa, Venture Visa, Amazon Visa, and CSP

Re: What are your favorite rewards cards?

I use Bank of America's Cash Rewards for gasoline, 3% back on gas. I know there's a PenFed card that gives 5% though.

Amex BCP is an excellent choice for groceries.

The Citi DC or Fidelity Amex are better than the Quicksilver as they give 2% back and no annual fee.

A lot of folks on here are believers in the Sallie Mae and AARP cards, if you're into carrying such a card in your wallet, the rewards are excellent.

I love my Sallie Mae and AARP cards. Sadly, Sallie is no longer accepting new applications.

Discover with Double Cash back, basically a 2% card on General Spending, 10% on categories and what could be upwards of 40% on Discover deals. It's the reason I'm not applying for anything else for another year when my Double Cash Back period is up.
