AMEX Blue Cash Everyday Card


If you plan on using it to do grocery spending, get the preferred. Buying >$2500/year in groceries makes the preferred more valuable than everyday ($5000 cap)

Keep in mind that you can buy gift cards at most grocery stores. For example, I buy my Amazon gift cards from Kroger and therefore get 6% back on all Amazon purchsaes (gas, airline, and more options)


Finally, if you have a store near you that offers fuel rewards, you can really maximize your return. Kroger offers 2x fuel points on gift cards. So I can buy a $50 shell GC w/ 6% rewards and get $0.10 off /gallon. Comes out to about ~10% caseback for every 1$ on gas

The preferred has a grocery spending cap too


Before they did, the gift card trick was a very useful exploit

Holy hell. I have never thought about that gift card trick. I think you just changed my life.
