I"m conflicted on which cards to use for what. Not working on a min spend currently, and I like racking up SPG points and think I'd like to explore Delta as an airline to fly to Europe next summer. However, part of me thinks I may change my mind on the airline, and I should use the card that gives me the most points for each category. For example,
Restaurants = CSR = URs
Groceries = AMEX ED Pref = 3 Membership Rewards points per dollar
Gas = CSR = URs
SPG Amex = other category
Is this the way I should go, using the above cards for those categories?
Looks good, except the CSR doesn't have any bonus categories for gas -- you get only 1 UR per $1. I'd actually put gas on the SPG until 8/1/18, because gas will earn you 1 Starpoint per $1, which like I mentioned yesterday, 1 Starpoint = 3 Marriott points. By comparison 1 UR = 1 Marriott point. Effective 8/1/18, the everyday spend on the SPG cards get devalued to only 2 Marriott points per $1.
