Looking to up my cash back game. Loungers GITT

with your credit card rotation for ultimate cash back.
Right now I have the Chase Sapphire Preferred (big baller). Put everything I possibly can on it and pay it off at the end of the month. Right now we are around $8-900 at the end of the year we then use for purchasing Christmas for the kids.
What do you use to get that big fat cash back transaction?

indicator of bonus time as well. The Southeast Region of my company killed it, especially my office. However, other parts of the country SUCKED. Not sure what that means for me though.
Probably headed for another 2% raise and 2% bonus. YAAAAYYYY!!!

I've got some stocks that pay a dividend in November

ever year. Pays for Christmas until Wife realizes we have extra money then she just spends more on Christmas.
It's great until you realize you can never sell the stock. It isn't publically traded so we would have to find a buyer if we ever wanted to sell. I inherited some from Grandfather and some from Dad when he passed.

for a few years. would typically get somewhere around a grand back. we also lived < 5 min from costco
we moved to the chase sapphire reserve for travel points, then covid happened. good news is we got a lot of points, bad news is, well, can't go anywhere.

It works if you have discipline with spending

I don't have that, or maybe I should say WE don't have that kind of discipline.

get out of hand. I've not carried a cc balance for more than 10 years now. Next step is to get Sharkgirl in that boat. We've got a lot of work to do in that department.
