Daily Drivers

Hey guys.

 

I was just wondering how many "daily drivers'" people carry on a consistent basis in their wallets. By this, I mean cards that are always in the wallet, not those that get rotated in and out.

 

Right now, I carry AMEX BCP and CITI DC, but am thinking of adding SAVOR back in the wallet, too.

Re: Daily Drivers

I value Amex MR points therefore I have my Amex PRG and BBP in my wallet @ all times to accumulate MR points for everyday personal/business spend. I also keep the BofA cash rewards in my wallet to earn some cashback (5.25% gas, 3.5% groceries).

Re: Daily Drivers

I've always had a daily driver since my rebuild. It used to be the QS (which is still in my wallet today) but has been replaced with the AMEX platinum. Not as powerful on daily rewards, but I like to keep things simplistic and not chase rewards.

Re: Daily Drivers

At this time, I'm making my new NFCU cashRewards my driver for grocery/gas purchases, my newer Discover IT for restaurants (5% cash back to the end of this month), CareCredit for healthcare-related purchases (especially dental, which I've had substantial expenses on this year) wherever it's accepted, and PayPal 2% CashBack MC or Capital One QS Visa for most other stuff.

Re: Daily Drivers

My daily drivers have recently changed, but I carry about 5 with me just in case any specific card is not excepted during international travel. 

 

New primary goto's:  CSR Visa, Amex Platinum, Citi Aadvantage Mastercard

Re: Daily Drivers

I have two I carry with me everywhere (including abroad).

 

1. Paypal Cashback Mastercard (2% everywhere) - (superseded my Cap1 QS MC)

2. Costco Anywhere Visa Card (Gas, Restaurants, Travel)

 

I also carry my Amazon Prime Visa Signature, as backup. Aside from that, I have the Paypal Business Debit Mastercard as well. If I get approved for the Uber Visa Card, I will add that as well.

Re: Daily Drivers

CSR.

 

I'm already on a replacement card as it split apart apparently from too much use or something.  Actually sometimes that's the only card I have on me even if I know that's just dumb but I've gone weeks multiple times without swiping a single other card.
