Re: 3rd quarter wallet...

Sallie Mae for gas/groceries

BCP for more groceries

Double cash for gen spend

CSP for dining/travel

Discover It for 10% ON AMAZON BABY and discover deals

 

Simplicity...still rotting with some BTs that are 0% until february

I'll put some stuff on PRG for min spend and for baggage fee refund when I travel in August, otherwise bench it for a while I guess

Re: 3rd quarter wallet...

Going to be in the middle of the IHG spending bonus so after that it will be Marriott for vacation and Discover for everything else. I'm really disappointed in the Freedom Q3. I was gonna take some of the limit from my IHG and put it on my Freedom but now I'm not so sure. That card has definitely been SD'd for awhile.

It is veternarian, but it's not a general category.   Our vets are at a major animal hospital, which happens to code as a charity (because I guess it is one!).   So the good news is that we get 5% off with the Cash +. choosing Charity as one of the 5%   The bad news is that we max out the category on two cards in most quarters.....

Re: 3rd quarter wallet...

Rethinking my spree and rewards plans so this might change but:

 

CSP: restaurants + meeting bonus spend unless I can get stupid on mortgage payment

Venture: if I get a non-trivial CSP limit (stranger things have happened) ain't even doing this app but otherwise meeting spend requirements, might as well with decorating new place.

Freedom: gas

Discover: anything which lands on that sweet 10% bonus up to $1500.  Possible default spend after bonuses met for button smashing purposes as plan C for getting a 20K CL out of this spree somehow.

 

Not really sure I'm even going to carry my usual Fidelity default spender around.  Feels wierd relegating that to SD and Sallie for Amazon purchases only after being my two go to cards for the entire year other than Freedom recently on way too many restaurants.  Maybe BCP depending on how much grocery shopping I do in the few months post mortgage but I don't think that'll be a tremendous amount.
