I have no idea what will happen to my Costco Amex next year. The 2-3% cash back I got was nice while it lasted. I have a feeling that I'll have to open a Citi Costco card to get the same perks that I have with my current card. We'll see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208163 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 19:37:14 +0000 lady grey 2208163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. High Heels: wow I'm impressed with your knowledge on all these different cards! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208161 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 19:36:17 +0000 lady grey 2208161@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks everyone for all the reponses! I've shared with DH and we're going to look into a lot of these, esp Captiol One Venture and Amex blue/Amex costco. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208154 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 19:29:03 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2208154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have &amp; like my Capital One card... assume it's just the "standard" version. We put everything on this card &amp; pay off 1-2x/mo and have gotten at least one free airline ticket each calendar year. You can redeem for other expenses/cash back, but the travel benefit is best &amp; we love to travel, so it works great for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208139 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 19:09:22 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2208139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a Costco Amex and the annual fee is waved.

I just use the rewards points towards more purchases.</p> <p>Even though we travel, we do not like travel rewards cards bc it seems to be more and more difficult to use the rewards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208111 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 18:17:45 +0000 lawbee11 2208111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another vote for Capital One Venture. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208103 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 18:02:09 +0000 hotchildinthecity 2208103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love Capital One Venture </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208080 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 17:23:53 +0000 yoursilverlining 2208080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use and like both the Chase Amazon and Amex Jetblue cards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208078 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 17:20:54 +0000 MoonMoon 2208078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Capital One has good miles cards, very easy and straightforward to redeem for any travel related expense, plus no annual fees. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208076 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 17:17:08 +0000 BSB 2208076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We live in Seattle so we love the companion passes through our Alaska air card. We also have a U.S. air credit card and they had an annual companion pass but they have discontinued it since merging with American airlines. :sad: With Alaska and U.S. airways credit card we were able to fly to the east coast to visit family at least once or twice a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208075 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 17:16:59 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 2208075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on what you want out of the rewards. The Chase Freedom and Discover It cards are popular because there's no annual fee and they have 5% cash back on rotating rewards categories each quarter. </p> <p>The Citibank Double cash back card has a set 2% cash back on all purchases. Great for those who want a "flat rate" cash back on all purchases.</p> <p>Barclay Arrival Plus is great to redeem for travel. You essentially earn 2.2% in rewards for every $1 spent, but it has an $89 annual fee.</p> <p>Capital One Venture is another one similar to Barclay with 2% back that you can redeem for travel. $59 annual fee. </p> <p>AMEX Blue Preferred gives you 6% back on groceries up to $6000/yr, 3% back on gas, and 1% everything else. $75 annual fee. However, they also have the AMEX Blue with no annual fee card that gets you 3% back on groceries, 2% on gas, and 1% on everything else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208074 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 17:16:09 +0000 PurplePumps 2208074@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My go to card is BofA cash rewards for everyday expenses - gas (3%), grocery and pharmacy (2%) purchases. And then 1% cash back on all else. I have a Discover also for their 5% rotating categories and shop discover for 5-10% back on Target, Kohls, Macys, Nordstrom, and a lot more if you shop online a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/credit-card-with-the-best-perksrewards#post-2208069 Sun, 14 Jun 2015 17:07:05 +0000 lady grey 2208069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I are about to pay off all our credit card debt. We're closing some cards but I still want to keep one in my name. I have an Alaska air card but will close that one for sure since we live on the east coast now.</p> <p> Any tips on which cards have the best rewards? </p>
