Chase Freedom, then Sallie Mae when the quarter runs out. Luckily I don't spend over $250 a month, so there's really no benefit to the Penfed card for me.
Let's do the math: $100 x 6pts = 600 pts (PayPal); $100 x 5pts = 500 + 50 (5 $20 fill ups) + 10 (10% bonus) = 560 pts (Chase); $100 x 5pts = 500 pts
So Paypal won right? (less hassle; don't need a chk account) lol

If you ever decide to get a Discover card, have him refer you. You both get $50 if you're approved.

What is the redemption on those 600 paypal points? I have heard they worth less than 1ccp.

Not so fast. I value Chase points much more than paypal points,
Yup I forgot about redemption.. lol
paypal 6000 pt = $50, IIR.
