Between walmart, where 100% of purchases are classified as grocery, walgreens, and gas stations, where I can even buy our 6 cartons/month of cigarettes and get 5% back, there isn't much (except online) that I don't earn 5% on. Drawback is I'm probably approaching the yearly limit after 4-5 months.

Wow, the card considers walmart--everything, including tires and televisions, to be part of the grocery section? I am pretty sure the citicard doesn't do that. Are you positive? That is a major bonus to get 5% off on Walmart, if it's possible.

I don't know about at all walmarts - but every purchase I've made at my local superwalmart, whether grocrery or general items, has given me 5% points on my statements. It's a nice bonus. I rack up 50$ rewards checks pretty quickly between $450/month purchases at walmart and $500/month gas/cigarettes purchases.

checking my latest statement, I get 5% off at meijer's too (regional store like walmart supercenter).

What is the best card for flying ? I fly to NC twice a year on vacation and wouldn't mind switching my citi card to one where I could finance those 2 trips
