Best Card for Amazon Use? Max Rewards

See a lot of folks applying for Chase Amazon and wonder if anyone has suggested best card to use on Amazon.  Annually my DW and I run about 5 grand through Amazon and have always had AMEX card on file for use... collecting MRs.

 

Tell me where I'm being the really DH and how to maximize our rewards.  TIA!

Well depending on whith amex mr card you have , lets play pretend and you have either Amex PRG or EDP , they give bonus to Supermarkets, you could get 2x bonus buying amazon gift card at super market. The other option is you both get an SM card which gives 750 per month at 5% cashback. Bluecash is another option if you can hit 6500 threshold. You can buy amazon GC at 5% at an few different places. 

 

Theres also this long thread that i started few weeks ago on similar subject.
