Will I be getting these cards?
I’m not a cash back kinda guy. I like points and using those points to fly in super nice cabins or cruise the tarmac in a porsche. Although I recently picked up an Amex blue for business which offered the same 10x bonus on restauranst for 6 months. So if that’s any indication of how I value deals like this, I bit when it earned me points.
If I were a cash back kinda guy I think this is a very good deal, especially the Everyday as it carries no annual fee and earns 3% back on groceries. Lemme know if you decide to go for this offer and how you like the card!
While they got docked for capping earnings in certain categories, they got a high rating thanks to their high rewards-earning rates, redemption value and simplicity – few cards are as hassle-free as the Blue Cash cards.
