What credit card should I get?

I need to get a credit card for my work expenses. (Actually, I'm choosing to use my own rather than get an actual company card. It's a better deal, but it's complicated.)

In any event, I want something that will give me the best rewards, preferably cash back, free flights, or hotel stays. I'm not willing to pay a fee for the card either.

Finally, it can't be a Discover card. It's not that I have anything against Discover cards. It's just that I'm not a loser.

Thanks in advance.

Sometimes it's worth paying a fee if the benefits are good enough and you use it a lot, and I'm willing to punch anyone who disagrees.

Heh...I was about to suggest my Discover Escape card. So much for that.

I was just being a smartass. Actually, I knew you were going to suggest a Discover card because I've seen you mention it in other threads. I was completely kidding about the no Discover card thing.


































But seriously, no Discover card.

I'll see you there. Any idea what card I should use to book my tickets? Something with good rewards would be ideal. No Discover card, though.

Get a card with a fee, but call up and threaten to cancel once a year. They will waive the fee.

It all really depends on what you're going to buy and in what volume. There are a few calculators you can use online (here's one (http://www.creditcardtuneup.com/)) that will help you get on the right track, but be aware that they're getting paid to link you to the cards that it suggests.

In Denver, we have United and Frontier cards. Both work equally well. Or apparently you can fight me in England for free if you get this card: http://bucks.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/11/04/the-best-credit-card-signup-bonus-ever/

Awardwallet.com is a great site to consolidate and track all of your reward points and miles.

I've heard the Amazon reward card is pretty good.

Now that I mention it.. I actually want one of each of those now... I wonder if there are any other crazy ones out there that I need to get.

that's a good one. at 20000 miles you get a howler monkey and at 50000 you can get a capybara.

The Southwest card is a good one if you live near an airport with Southwest and you're in it for free flights.

I use AmEx Blue Cash. After meeting baseline minimum, you get 5% back on gas, groceries and pharmacy purchases and 1.25% on everything else. No annual fee.

I spent $60K on it last year and got about $1,100 in cash back.

[loochy]

Send a PM over to R8ers. He can recommend a good one. ;)

If you are a Costco member I highly recommend their Am Ex executive card. It has no fee, I get 1% on everything, 2% on travel expenses, 3% on restaurants and gas. Your rebate is in cash and there is no minimum you have to spend.\. The only drawback is that it's AmEx and it's not taken everywhere.

Free flights on planes that fall apart? no thanks. :)
