Upon news of Citibank scaling back the rewards on the Citi Dividend cards, I started looking for a new credit card to use for my groceries and gasoline purchases. I finally settled on the Citi Diamond Preferred Rewards card. It’s not a cash back card, but I do get 5 Thank You Points (no, thank you) for each $1 spent on groceries, gas, and drug store purchases for the next year.

I also get 10,000 thank you points right off the bat after my first purchase with the card, which can be redeemd for a $100 gift card. I’m hoping those points don’t expire right away, as I’d like to keep saving the points until I have enough to redeedm for plane tickets. If I can’t save them, I’ll just use them to buy $100 worth of gas cards and merely save the money that I would have spent on gas.

I’m a rewards junky.
