Good Credit Card rewards & tracking spreadsheet?
« on: September 24, 2014, 07:11:02 PM »
Do any of you fine Mustachians have an excel spreadsheet that works well for organizing all of your reward credit cards? I have several going with all kinds of benefits and rewards but I'm struggling to figure out a way to track all of it. And before anyone asks, yes I pay all these cards in full and carry no credit card balances. :) Anyway, please PM me if you have a good spreadsheet you can send my way. Thanks!

I just made my own, based on what I wanted to track.

I did Google around a little on the various travel hacking forums, but most were way too simplistic or way too complicated.  Using one of those could give you a good base to start from though.
I am a former teacher who accumulated a bunch of real estate, retired at 29, spent some time traveling the world full time and am now settled with three kids.
If you want to know more about me, this Business Insider profile tells the story pretty well.
I (rarely) blog at AdventuringAlong.com. Check out the Now page to see what I'm up to currently.

Bumping this ancient thread to see if anyone has any good spreadsheets they want to share.

Background: I delegated travel hacking to my wife because she has more desire to travel than me and a lot more time to research that kind of stuff. She has since become stressed out trying to keep track of all of the details in her head and asked me to help her get organized. I was planning to build a spreadsheet for her, but thought I'd ask here first to see if I can find something good that has been refined by months or years of use.

I got one (I believe) from the Travel Miles 101 course (run by some MMM members), but it was a couple years ago.  Have you (or your wife) taken the course

She did, but I'm sure if there was a spreadsheet she ignored it. I'll have her track it down.
