US Bank, they have given me very generous cl's and no matter what amount I charge, it's never a problem.
Good thread!
For me, at this point in time, it's my Amex Green. It has a good amount of purchasing power relative to my needs -- I recently found out that I have a $5000/mo internal spending limit. I earn rewards with it -- I'm saving up my points to help pay for a trip. And, I like the buyer protection that comes with it.
But, the thing that I like the best about it is the magic of Amex backdating. I've had this particular card since last May, but it was backdated to 1987. Not only is this a boon for my reports, but it's a boost to my emotional well-being as well. Yes, I got back in with Amex while in rebuilding mode -- go figure. Looking at the "Member Since '87" embossed on my card makes me feel like the time in my life when I had pretty good credit -- many years ago -- still counts for something. And, I'm well on the road to having respectible credit once again. So, for both practical and sentimental reasons, this card is my current favorite.
BofA 1-2-3 is my everyday card along with my AMEX Zync! Love that Zync!!!
My Chase Freedom. The 5% categories earn me a lot of points plus the bonus for having a Chase checking account really add up fast. The fact that I can combine my points from my Freedom and Sapphire is a HIGE plus! I earned $37 in cash back last month. I'm happy with that.
The one who approves my next application.
BoA AmEx Cash Rewards is my go-to card for 1.25% cash on everything. So if I had to pick one card it would be that.
PenFed Visa Platinum Cash Rewards for 5% cash on gas (unfortunately they cut the reward for groceries).
Chase Amazon Visa for 3% at Amazon. The way they set it up to redeem the money directly at Amazon is really nice.
I need to look into that AmEx Blue Cash Everyday a couple of you mentioned. 3% on groceries would be nice to have again.
Citi Dividend / Chase Freedom combo. 5% rotating Cashback ^___________^

My favorite card is Amex BCP I have received $125.00 so far. The rewards are "GREAT" like Tony tiger said on the frosted flakes commercial years ago.
Is that amount in rewards earned from purchases or a sign on bonus?
