A straight 2% on all purchases? Sounds like a nice deal. Except when you go to certain restaurants of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except when you go to certain restaurants of course. yup. you need to have a schwab brokerage account to sweep it into, but i already had one of those. i guess if they can get you to set up a brokerage account, they can then get you via stock transactions i guess. we'll see how this goes. i'll report back on how this works out.

That is why I use my AMEX because depending on the purchase and the level of purchases I've made over the year, it will give me credit at between 1.5% and 5%. Of course, I've started using my AMEX less because as Dave Ramsey points out, you tend to spend more when you use a credit card than if you were to pay cash. I have found that to be true, in my case.
