This is not a good approach to figuring out the break point. It assumes that the alternative is to spend on groceries with NO rewards, which is not the case. There exists a free AMEX card that gives you 3%. There exist other rewards ecosystems where the points are worth more than straight cash back.

I'm not saying this card doesn't have value, but that is NOT the break point. If you ONLY spend $2000 on groceries, you'd be better off with the regular blue cash everyday giving you 3% back (e.g., $60 back). The preferred will get you an ADDITIONAL $60 back but it will cost you $95, that's not efficient.

I keep looking at amex card rebates & deals all the time on slickdeals & planning to get one.

1) Which amex cards are these for or do they apply to all amex cards ?

2) Those experienced, any recommendations for amex cards to get for zero or suitable minimum yearly fee and maximum benefits assuming one has good enough credit. I don't have any use for airline credits but love cashback and everyday savings. not looking for gas benefits but grocery store and electronics are big purchases yoy..

TIA

It was 75 off on 500 in 2019 and I used it to buy a TV. Considering the inflation I was expecting a 100 off on 500 Smilie Last year they had a $0 fee plan it offer. Hope that comes back too.

Yep from my prior experience with a return on a router at BestBuy that I used a 15% off trade-in coupon on and then a repurchase, It's definitely not something I'd ever want to do again. Lesson learned.
I don't understand. Please educate me ☹️

How is it a hassle to do return and repurchase at the store? It sounds simple to achieve? At Target for example customer service rep (CSR) do it quickly by scanning the barcode from phone and the item to complete the refund process, provide receipt to the customer, then rescanning the item and then the customer simply provide a different form of payment ie Red card for the 5% discount.

Not sure why you say it different for BBY?

Blue Cash Preferred gets these. Annual fee = $95, but the groceries rewards = 6%. If you spend at least $2000 on groceries each year, it's more than worth it.

Anyone know if we can mix in store and online?

I need a new modem which would be about $130 and then I have a God of War PS5 controller preordered which is $80. Will prob end up spending $40 on some games or something.

The last time I went into the Best Buy to buy gift cards, I was told only 3 gift cards.

So I was forced to buy 2x $100 and 1x $50 Amazon gift cards.

They had a big problem figuring out how to re-use the 15% off trade-in coupon. It was redeemed with the initial purchase and once I returned the purchase, it didn't reactivate the coupon code used. So they couldn't use it on the repurchase. They had to get a couple of other people involved (managers?) and after quite a hassle, they figured it out but it was at least 30 minutes or more it felt like. With the back up of the line also to take in to consideration also and because of what I thought would just be a simple return and repurchase, I'd never do it again. Maybe things have gotten better in the last 3 years there, but I'll never personally find out myself. 😂

Blue Cash Everyday is a great card that doesn't have an annual fee. You'll be eligible for the AMEX offers like these, you'll get a pool of 100 offers to choose from at any given time. I am usually eligible for the offers that get posted on SD.

The only thing you won't get is points based deals (like Amazon coupons when you pay with AMEX points) as this is a straight cash back card.

I have the regular Blue Cash Everyday with no annual fee, and I get these offers
It gets 3% for supermarkets vs the 6% + $95 annual fee for the Blue Cash Preferred.


Also, the BCE, has 3% for online purchases that they added recently.
