Have you ever thought about getting the reserve card? I think your spending and use of the benefits might warrant the annual fee.

I considered it, but I don't stay in Hiltons often enough for the slight increase in rewards to justify the fee. It's really not much of a bump up IMO. to really get any value out of the Reserve card, you need to basically live in Hilton hotels.

I think if you put over $2k per month on the card in general purchases, it would justify the cost difference.

Not to mention....the card looks better

Anybody else have any ideas for good no annual fee cards?

Chase Freedom is definitely a strong contender in terms of all around use, especially with a Chase banking account.

Citi Dividend World Elite Mastercard

Capital One Secured Card (AU) $251 Capital One Platinum (AU) $500

The Freedom is definitely a great card. Although, the rotating categories (like the current one) can be useless.

The BCE is a good no AF card, the 3% CB on groceries year round is good for when you cannot get 5% from other cards.

A lot of great posts. We are getting a good list together.

Thanks everyone.

Definetly chase freedom or discover more.

Leaning towards discover though, with no foreign fees and bonus days (like today!)
