It adds up. Just buying things I buy anyway, I've saved $160 this year so far with Discover. Will probably add another $50 with Christmas shopping since Amazon and Walmart on on there this quarter.

Combined with my other rewards cards, with just a tiny bit of planning, I net about $600-1000 a year in cashback and travel. It's not nothin'.

I wish they weren't so strict with the grocery store category. None of my go to places count for groceries.

Asked the Discover chat representative - Kroger and Food Lion qualify as grocery stores while Harris Teeter does not. Hope someone finds this useful in Q1
Harris Teeter should count. I think the representative is incorrect.

Anything that codes as "supermarkets" will get the 5% back, except for Walmart and Target. So try it early in the quarter and see what it codes as.

First time i've seen this. Does this mean paying with apple pay doesn't qualify for restaurant and grocery rewards?
if they work like paypal , probably everything count for 5%! as long as you can pay it through apple pay/ google pay etc

General question - how do you guys keep track of offers and cashbacks, discovery/amex/chase/paypal/etc.. I keep finding after the purchase that I should use rather other card or trying to remember at register which card is best here.. I can't be the only one facing this :-) any ideas?
I used to put small stickers on each card of offer - but needed see all offers overall so now:
I keep list on 1 small ppr or big index card etc -- divided into 5 sections (the card and the 4 qtr offers) I keep copy on desk and carry 1 in wallet to glance at.
Sometimes cards have other offers on their own site such as Amex or Chase etc which you select on their site - maybe like use Amex at best buy and get extra pts. - these offers change at different times - most have expiration dates. If I select offers like that - I add to back of my ppr list noting if offer is for in store or online etc.

What the fark is wrong with this Discover company? I applied 3-5 years ago and got declined. I didn't have as much credit history as I do now though, so maybe then it was understandable. But since then, I now have 3 Chase credit cards, 1 AMEX, 1 Credit Union card, and 1 Capital One credit card that I got approved for $10,000 with just last week. I only have one hard inquiry and that's from the Capital One card. I have less than 30% total utilization, 807 FICO score, no debt, pay off balances in full every month, no collections, crystal clear credit reports. They just declined me again!

How does this make any sense? I do find it suspicious, and maybe it relates, that Discover tried to claim they wanted to attempt to verify my identity by requesting a report from my cell phone carrier - to which I declined. My cell phone number through a cell phone carrier doesn't verify my identity. I don't use post-paid service from the 4 (or now 3) major cell carriers anyway. No other credit card company has tried to make me go through this process...

What the fark?

Yeah.... scammers are out the wazoo these days... I bet it was because you declined an attempt for them to make sure it's you. If you have a fraud alert or something on your credit report then that might do it too. I would check your credit report from all the agencies and make sure nothing is amiss.

I did not decline them from attempting to make sure it's me - I did prove it's me. I declined their request for a cell phone consumer report which wouldn't verify my identity. No cell phone company could prove it's me more than I can prove it's me, even if I did give business to the 3 major cell phone carriers. No one should have to be a consumer of a cell phone to qualify for a credit card, let alone from the major 3 that also offer prepaid service of which don't require a SSN. My credit reports are crystal clear. All of them. No fraud alerts. I had all 3 frozen for nearly a year until last week when I temporarily lifted all to apply for CapOne and Discover - maybe that's. I'll just continue to recommend Chase and advise others to stay away from Discover.

About the current quarter: will I qualify for the 5% cash back for Target.com if I order online and pick up in-store? I know the charge doesn't go through until I pick up the order but the question is do they charge me at the store level or does the charge show up as target.com?

Would appreciate if anybody wants to share their chart on various card benefits. So Discover doesn't include any Amazon grocery purchases? Instacart? Doordash? Since they do groceries

Could one just buy a bunch of gift cards for other places at a grocery store and max it out that way?

I've spent over $75.00 in Amazon this quarter and only see $24 cash back. How does this work?
