Whats the best CC to use?

[Chapshnell]

In "up in the air" there seems to be a good thread of "whats the best way to book". I'm thinking maybe its a good idea to start a thread for DDF'ers who have a question which CC is best to use when going to make a (large?) purchase.

I've seen many people looking for a comprehensive list of cards and their categories. I think a wiki (listing bonus categories and consumer protections) would be a great place to refer such people.

Thats pretty much the one!

added it to the wiki

while that post definitely has a lot of info, the list of included cards are far from comprehensive. Most of the cards listed have one thing in common.

So you're on

Ok, I'll start.

What's the best credit card to use at Staples when buying Visa GC's?

IMO the card most worthy for high spending with 2% CB (not statement credit but actually CB) is: I know you're in for a shock but the answer is :Capital One Spark. All other airline miles you can buy fror cheaper. That is for simple cash back and value for your money.  If you're looking to get statue etc or you want to accumulate your own miles SPG is currently the top of my list for that. But again for someone who swipes a lot (tens of thousands a month) and does not need or already has status and can buy points frim friends etc. C1 Spark is the answer IMO

ETA: that is for Business CC's

That's actually good for someone who doesn't spend a lot. Someone who does, can't get a large enough CL anywhere but Amex, so this doesn't really help.

And you can get a personal card with 2% as well - Citi Double Cash.

"A lot" is relative, I guess

I need to get a gift card. I have freedom, sp, ba, SPG, and delta. Best card to use if all I know is I want to redeem points for travel? (I don't know which 7-11s in my area are 'gas stations')

Almost every 711 is a gas station,  so use freedom
