Chase Freedom - for gas, next quarter for restaurants
BCP - groceries/gas when not a quarterly category
CSP - everything else
Just got approved for the Sallie Mae though so will be using that for groceries/gas for first $250 and almost everything else (except restaurants).
1. Costco Amex
2. USAA Amex
3. Amex BCE
4. USAA MC
5. Chase Freedom
6. CSP
7. Discover it
8. Barclays arrival
9. Chase IHG
10. NFCU cashRewrds
Costco Amex, Amex BCP, US Bank Cash+ Visa, Chase Sapphire & Freedom cards every month. Others get rotated.
Discover since it has the highest limit. Then I rotate between Chase and Citi. I only use Amex for smaller purchases since I'm afraid of screwing up my 3x cli if I carry a balance. I have 0% APR on all cards right now and want to take advantage of that some before paying back. LOL
right now its the CSP to get the points bonus, but i think it will be used the most even after the points bonus. Visa is excepted everywhere. Followed by the BCP for groceries and gas. Even tho the BCP is triple the limit of any of my cards lol

Till tomorrow, when the 1 year promotion expires, the Citi 5x TYP. After that, Amex Blue Cash.
Just curious, Is this 5X still offered for NEW applicants?
No, went dead on the web around May 2013 and dead in the branches in June or July (a few lucky people were able to use old forms in the branches and got them honoured, but no recent successes at this).
Citi won't repeat this unchanged, a lot of people were able to make a lot of money from this card, because Citi failed to include any caps and failed to include the needed language in their Terms and Conditions.. Wells Fargo is also making the same mistake, but seem to be cleverer at slowing people down
Citi closed a lot of people down but then had to pay anyway in Small Claims court actions.
Thanks for sharing info.
Hope, you enjoyed your 5X card well
Guess I will switch to Amex Everyday after I receive it.
Chase Hyatt and JetBlue Amex
Freedom for 5% categories and BCE for everything else.
