Credit Cards

Chase Freedom – 5% cash back on a new category every quarter.  It is hard to beat 5% back.

Citi Double Cash – 1% cash back when you buy and 1% cash back when you pay your credit card bill.  Plus a Balance Transfer Offer: 0% Intro APR on balance transfers for 18 months.  I like this because it encourages you to pay your credit card bill!

Chase Sapphire Preferred® – A very popular card in the travel hacking community. Earn 50,000 bonus points or $500 cash or $625 towards hotels/airfare after you spend $4k in three months. No foreign transaction fees. Get an additional 5,000 points for adding an authorized account user within the first three months after they make a purchase. $95 Yearly fee is waived the first year. The points transfer at a rate of 1:1 to Southwest and United Mileage Plus, among others.
