Sallie Mae for gas/groceries

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

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.....

Animal lover.
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.
