It would still be hard to beat the low gas price plus 4% cash back. I am using the Chase Amazon Visa for filling gas at Costco this quarter though due to the 10% cash back.
i have a amazon chase visa, but dont see the quarterly offer for gas. was it a aspecial offer?

It is not a regular Chase offer. You need to check with a different link. Search in this forum for the 10% cash back.

But Costco only takes visa. So if I still have a good spend there, isn't it still the best choice?

Best at Costco specifically? Not really.

On a regular basis probably a BoA card if you have plat status since it'll get you 3.5% cash back instead of 2% with the costco card... (such status can also get you 5.25% on gas, also beating the costco card).

And obviously for the quarters they include warehouse clubs the various 5%/5x UR options from Discover and Chase would be ideal for club purchases up to the $1500 per quarter per card max (use giftcards to max this in the right quarter for ideal value).

(Discover can be used to buy costco giftcards from costco.com then used at the club in person).

Thanks. Clearly my search before posting wasn't good.

What about the cash back? What do you use thats better at Costco/gas/etc
Well at least for me I don't use gas, so that perk is useless too.

Did a search but didn't find any post about this:
If you've been taking advantage/relying on the 2 year extended warranty coverage offered by Citi Costco Visa, that benefit will be ending on 01/22/23.
Better make any purchases you want covered before that date!

Less reasons to use it outside of Costco purchases, tbh. I made my major electronic purchases with this card for this reason alone. And it kind of became a habit for my wife and me. We have a Cap One Venture One card. Wonder if they offer warranty

I expect more and more cards to drop this. in the past, people didn't have receipts...but now we all do because most everything is tied to an order.

Thanks. The costco rep told me yesterday that that perk had ended. Glad to hear I bought the laptop under the wire and get the coverage.

Man these companies (as good as Costco is) like Amazon are increasing its membership prices but decreasing its benefits and services. It's getting a little ridiculous now.

My Costco in the Bay Area said that the Citibank credit card was no longer offering that extended warranty anymore so I used my chase for the points instead. It came from the manager but I feel like I was deceived!
