Chase Freedom hands down in my opinion, especially if you can get the Visa signature version!
Amex BCE: 3% grocery, 2% gas
Chase Freedom Visa Signature: 10+10, rotating 5%
Citi Forward Visa: 5% restaurants/fastfood, movie theaters, amazon.com
US Bank Cash+ Visa Signature: 5% electronic stores, restaurants
Chase Amazon Visa: 3% amazon.com (unused)
Barclays NFL Reward Visa Signature (unused)

I absolutely concur. Bonus categories, dividends, and no annual fee? Freedom is a no brainer.

Chase Freedom by a mile.
- It's a Visa, so it's accepted pretty much anywhere
- Superior rewards program
- NO $125 ANNUAL FEE
- It has a credit limit, so you know how much you can spend at all times

+1 on the freedom. I love Amex cards, but freedom blows out the gold for everyday purchasing. Right now im using my CSP for everyday purchases and freedom is my gas card for the 5%. I should be getting my 40k bonus next statement period, my plan is to rack up a crap load of UR points and never look back.
AMEX Blue Cash Everyday: $23,500
CAPONE Cash Rewards (VISA Signature): $7,500
CHASE Freedom (VISA Signature): $8,500
CHASE Sapphire Preferred(World MC): $12,000
USAA Rewards (World MC): $13,500

Same boat here. Freedom 10+10, but using CSP for everything right now since I hit the cap on Freedom Q1 with gift cards. I should get my 40k bonus by the time my first statement posts. I've had it for a week and put over $900 through it so far. Originally Posted by marzbarz
