Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Youngster!
I remember when 6 1/2 oz Coca Cola bottle was 5 cents! (circa 1950) But, you had to drink it there and leave the empty bottle.

I use a Discover credit card pretty much for everything I can. I get 1% cash back automatically accessible on Amazon or when it's time to pay it off. Also use it for buying gas during the time (3 months) it's 5% kickback. There is a limit on that.

I use my Costco American Express card for buying gas to eventually (once a year) get 3% back. There's a $4K limit on purchases of gas with the 3% back. Card also gives 2% back on restaurants and travel, and 1% on all else.

There is never a remaining credit card balance, so I think of it as a discount on my purchases.

Just recently, SC insisted on giving me the income tax refund as a Visa value card. I hate paying full price with it! :)

New Costco and AMEX
are parting ways in March of 2016. Your Costco membership will no longer waive the AMEX annual fee.

New Yep, parting of ways is a sad event.
You can't beat AmEx service if and when you need it.

But, I'm not going to pay an annual fee. So, I'll be parting ways with AmEx as well.

It will be interesting to see what kind of kick-back scheme, if any, Citi will have.
