jesus, what are you putting on the card to get that much back a year?

Found Hookers that take credit......
It's the only card I use. So in no particular order
Car Insurance
Tv/cable
Gas
Food
Starbucks/Wawa
Sirius
Dog plan
Golf membership
And anything and everything outside a few cash lunch spots
Couple hotel stays a year.
So the gas is 4% restaurants/travel 3% Costco 2% which we don't use much
Then 1% for everything else
So it adds up especially with car insurance and tv services on there monthly. Balance is probably around 3-5 each month pending on what's going on. We don't travel as much now so will probably come down

I have a discover card and visa cards where I do the same thing. Discover always offers 5% on Dining, and the Visa offers 5% on groceries. Then there are 3% categories that change every quarter, and the rest is at 1%.Lol.....if I spend 50k a year and avg the 2% equals 1k.

1st semester of son's college was paid for on Discover.............then the school must have gotten smart, started charging a 3% fee for using credit cards.

that isn’t all that much.We got a new “default” card in November. It already has $600 cash back.
My wife opened a Marriott Visa card in December, already has 5 free nights and $100. Conservative estimate, we got about $4,000 back last year. We put almost everything except the mortgage on credit cards, running just over $100k last year (includes a bathroom remodel).

Are they hybrid shorts? I bought a pair of shorts that sound similar to yours and at some point I realized that they’re made both to be somewhat dressy looking shorts and swim shorts as well. Absolutely love them.

5 kids, 2 in college, 3 teenagers, and a bathroom remodel will do that. (To be fair, our mortgage is less than $1150/month)⚡DEADHEAD⚡

Very true. My wife drives 20 miles to the CostCo that has these just for those. Well that's her intent anyway. $300 later...

Think im going to grab a membership. Not entirely sure I’ll justify it but we’ll see. I had a friends and family membership before but used that o because no locations are that close to me
I do have a BJs membership through my mom we probably go a handful of times a year. Feel like I just buy a bunch of snacks and stuff though
I do know Costco is by far the best of all the club stores though.

So I see that option to direct deposit your citi rewards cert is only available when its over $300. I think this is the 1st year I've achieved that threshold. very convenient. more of an incentive to spend more.
