Care to share your method? Is a lot of that multiplied on a specific card?



If he's using BB, it's pretty easy to get that much, depending on how much you spend.

For me, I have around 1,000 a month I write in checks for rent, loans and entergy. If I use VRs for that to pay, that's 1,000 in Southwest rewards ASAP.

I usually have another 1K in expenses, so if my CC bill is 2K/month and I go buy 2K to reload BB and pay off my CC Bill, I'm at 4K rewards just like that. So basically, I'd be tripling my rewards per month.

Ya, I try to abuse my Freedom 5X categories and for example, we just bought a bunch of curtains and curtain rods off Amazon. I knew we were going to do that, so I stopped by OfficeMax and bought about $130 worth of Amazon gift cards with my Chase Ink Plus with no added fees.

I got 650 points off that transaction.

I directly pay my CC from BB as well, and actually just used BB to pay my Amex today because Teddy said I could. If he's wrong, I'm going to type vulgarities .

I use BB checks to pay for random things as well. You can order 50 free right now.

I probably have done on average about $3k/month on Bluebird recently, but will likely start doing around $10k/month in the coming months.
