Cash is good, and there's nothing in the catalog I don't like. BP Visa gave me back 5% of all my BP gas purchases, and we buy almost all our gas at BP anyway. And now we still will, but with a different card. James, I only deal with rewards programs that give me cash. Cash is good, and there’s nothing in the catalog I don’t like.

I assume the actual issuer of the card is Chase... I bet they have other rewards cards you could choose from if you don't like this one (although all bank rewards card programs are reportedly cutting back their rewards programs).

Since the rewards program doesn't affect my actions, I ignore it... I'd saved up over $300 worth of points before I decided to see if there was anything I wanted in the rewards catalog.
