    I racked up a whole $3.51 Hopefully I'll do better on my tax returns.

    On the REI Visa, I know it can be used like a regular Visa, but you get dividends on that??

    Using the REI Visa, you get the full dividend on REI purchases, plus a small percentage (~0.5%) dividend on everything you buy with that Visa card.

    I use my REI Visa card for everything - groceries, gas, pay bills, etc. I thought it was a 1% rebate. It adds up nicely!
    For 3 days, I get to part of a thousand other journeys.

    yup, 1% back on (almost) all purchases on the REI visa card, and there is no annual fee (unlike many reward cards). In addition it has really good travel protection and rental car insurance. Even covers rental car insurance in Mexico, which a lot of cards don't do.

    I use it for everything, just pay it off each month. This summer I was in Houston doing an internship, and I was even able to put my rent on it! I now have almost $200 in REI dividend to spend $175 of that is from the REI visa.

    It's 1% on everything except for cash advances and balance transfers.

    US Bank isn't hyper on fraud protection, either. I was using an LLBean card, and every time I would travel they would cut off my card (at least since Bank of America took over from MBNA). I gave them my cell number so they could call to verify, but since they couldn't use it for telemarketing, they wouldn't call it for fraud alerts either. It didn't take many times of being stranded for me to stop using that one all the time.

    Plus, I should be getting a good dividend next year

    I haven't seen mine yet!
    But that's generally in the range of where I come in - sub $10.
    Too much shopping on the sales rack!
