5x has been unbelievable on how quickly ur points add up.
MR's also accumulate with 4.5,3 and 1.50
Sad to see Venture and Dicover in my dresser when I get my socks.
Right, and for the person who values UR points at 1.5 - 2 cpp, it's essentially an 8% equivalent cashback card for general spending.
Don't understand that! For the 5x UR spending yes, but isn't general spend going to be at 1.5 UR( FU) for 2.25-3%
Ah, not that I'm advocating this, but purchase a $500 GC from an Office store. So, if assuming a 2 cp on each UR (10% cash equivalent) less then 6.95 activation fee, leaves 8%. Of course, if one is lucky enough to find $1,000 Visa GCs, the return goes up to around 9%.
However, I only resort to this when I prefer using a Visa when some Merchants refuse to accept Visa as a form of payment. Generally, I discourage MS of any kind, but his is not MS, but out of...er...necessity.
*Edited* Case in Point - Since I'm partial to Chase and Visa, during all those years when Costco refused to accept Visa, I bought $500 or $1,000 Amex GCs at Office Stores because I wanted these expenses itemized on my Chase Ink Business card.
