SPR: Which credit cards do you use? Best rewards?

We have been pretty loyal Starwood AMEX credit card holders. I had a TRU Chase as my secondary card. I'd be able to get a toy a month from rewards.

Looking to switch it up.

Which credit cards do you use? How are your rewards?

I have a Bed Bath & Beyond Mastercard. I like that I can use the rewards gift cards at BB&B, Buy Buy Baby, Harmon or Christmas Tree Shop. Here are the
card details.

Love the Amazon card! Great rewards--and very convenient since I buy pretty much everything from there.

Love my Discover card. 1% on all purchases, 5% special categories every quarter, and 5 - 10% back by shopping through their site. You can pay for Amazon orders with your cashback, have the cash applied to your balance, buy stuff, etc. I have gotten so many things for free because of my cashback.

Ditto this. Although now that I discovered ebates, I pretty much order anything online through them. I got soo much more cash back using them rather than Shopdiscover (shopping through their site).

We have the Disney Visa. We got $200 in Disney Rewards for signing up. I have seen them offer between $15 and $200, so if you do it, make sure you get the high amount. BUT ,be sure to pay if off every month, the rate is pretty high!

I think we got $200 when we signed up. The perks are good if you are planning on spending $$ at Disney. We are going this year so we plan on cashing in our points to use towards park tickets. I charge daycare on there every month so we are racking up points quickly (and I pay it off in full each month).

I am loving the Chase Freedom card. I also click through their site for shopping on line and get extra points from them. I've been getting roughly $50 a month back from them and they had a $200 sign up bonus when i got the card.

We have Costco AmEx. No annual fee if you're an Executive member at Costco ($105/yr I think) and the rewards are
Earn 3% cash back for gasoline for annual gasoline purchases of up to $3,000 (1% thereafter), 2% cash back for restaurants, 2% cash back for travel, and 1% everywhere else, including Costco.
