2019: $52 (so far...)
2018: $230
2017: $1452016: $225
I am considering a Cash Magnet just to double up on offers.
You might want to read around a bit on that... now when you add an offer to one card it's no longer available for your other cards (the multi-tab trick no longer works). 
Keeping an Amex around just for offers definitely isn't what it used to be (unless it's your only Amex, of course).

Everybody needs an Amex!
I did actually trigger it just now but I think I’m going to wait... I want to wait until I have spend to throw at a SUB and I want the prequal tool to offer me $3000 instead of $2000. Ideally I want it to be on a card that doesn’t have an AF too. Cash Magnet has $200 for $1000 with no AF and that’s more tempting but I’m still gonna behave.
OMG, I'm so mad at you for posting this. I went, and there it is... $300 back...
So now I'm going to torture myself over whether I will apply for this. It was going to be my next app anyway... and I like money (and $1000 spend in 3 months is my grocery alone). Argh.

Sounds like you should be thanking me for posting it because you would get great value from it. 
If it was gonna be your next anyway, I say doooo itttt.

You are officially THE WORST. I'm trying to figure out if aldi/lidl falls under supermarket for Amex, if it does... I might have to.
My poor spade 😭

If no AF is your game, AMEX is very lackluster for rewards. Honestly, the Cash Magnet needs a revamp and it’s not a year old yet. It’s pretty boring compared to an equivalent CFU or QS. At least you can get a WEMC or Visa Siggy.
How is it lackluster compared to the QS? They are both 1.5% cash back cards. The only advantage I see to the QS is quicker and easier reward redemption. I think most people here already have a WEMC and Visa Siggy so no real advantage unless you don't have one of hem.
