re: Best cash back credit cards...what you got?

Amex blue cash rewards is better than the chase freedom imo.
Looks like Jan-March is 5% back on gas and April-June is 5% on groceries for the Freedom card. Amex is 6% back on groceries and 3% back on gas all year. I did a quick spreadsheet with $600/month for groceries and $100/month for gas (your spending probably differs). With Amex I'd get $234 back from Jan-June and only $105 back with the Freedom card.
Only thing Chase offers is that your points are worth 25% if you use them on travel. Even with that, the Amex is better

damn you, hook. I was almost sold. What if I did chase unlimited + sapphire for every day purchases, travel and dining and also go the amex blue for groceries and gas? Is to crazy to juggle all that? I currently use the capital one venture card for air miles, but feel like the reward percentage is too low.
