This year I downgraded my Blue Cash card from preferred to every day. Why? Amazon opened up Whole foods to get 5% back on their VISA CC and Costco switched from Amex to VISA.
...does Whole Foods not count as a regular supermarket? Cuz the Preferred Blue gets your 6% on groceries. (All depending on what AMEX defines as a supermarket - last I checked, WalMart Super Stores didn't count, even if it had a grocery section, but I can't imagine Whole Foods wouldn't be listed as a supermarket.)
Looking at my last orders on Amazon -
- Cat food - cheaper than going out to the stores and buying it myself (and waaaaay more convenient). Comparable to Chewy.
- Bulk paper towels and toilet paper through subscribe and save - comparable in price to BJs (no Costco near me), way more convenient
- New Fitbit band after my old one broke - other than Fitbit's website ($$$), or a Fitbit brand one in a store ($$$), I'm not sure where I would have bought this. Much cheaper, and it's prettier.
- New "portable" rowing machine (hey, I canceled my gym membership) - again, delivered to my door.
- Oh look, more cat food. My cats eat a lot.
I have a few more Subscribe and Save items that I buy every couple of months (there's a five lb bag of quinoa that I keep pushing back, same with cans of tuna for cheap). I'll do their Prime Pantry when they give decent coupons and free shipping.
