Might have to look into this...I'm still over here getting a new card for the $200 off of $500 in the first 3 months and borrowing free money for a year lol I've always done cash-back and just make sure I use the card w/ the highest percentage for whatever I'm buying - I think Amazon is 6-7% back (depending how how fast you want it delivered), Wal-mart had a good one (5% back) there but I believe their partnership w/ CapitalOne just ended, Costco has a good one (4% back and I think 7% on gas).
