No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I posted a separate thread on this when I was learning about my chances of various cards, here is what I got to maximize my cashback:
Amex BCP: 6% CB @ supermarket, 3% at department stores
PenFed Platinum: 5% on gas
Citi Forward 5x points on dining, "entertainment", and Amazon
Barclays Priceline Visa: 2% on everything else
Note, some of these offer other categories (like the Amex has 3% on gas), but I didn't list it because I'll use the Penfed for gas instead. This combo gets me the most cashback for my typical usage, and also provides $500 in sign-up bonuses. The BCP has the $75 AF, but I was able to justify it once I counted pharmacy shopping at the supermarket. The BCE gives 3% @ the supermarket with no AF, but I can get that with the Penfed.

I use my Zync for most things, my Discover for the 5% categories, and my Wells Fargo cash back Visa for places that don't take Amex.
I've also got a Citi Diamond Preferred that spends most of its time in the sock drawer, though I occasionally break it out when I'm out for the night; the ladies love a guy with a black credit card
lol the ladies love a guy that pays

I think because it's beautiful it looks like money and I secretly hope it impresses my friends lol
Impress your friends with a green? Really? A platinum I might be able to understand, but I'm not sure how impressed anyone would be with a green unless they simply don't know anything.
The cards that seem to impress people are: metal (of some variety), certain cards that are colored black, and perhaps the Amex platinum. I'm not sure if the green fits here.
