Credit card bonuses, is spending $2000 for $20 a good deal?
using my credit card, if i spend $2000 worth , i get $20 back, is that considered a good bonus? what are the typical bonuses for credit card the ones without any anual fees
Additional Details
you guys are all confused, i was asking as a scenerio....... i dont spend $2000 a month, just asking if the reward is standard... i pay my CC bill on time every month, so a good reward program can be quite advantagous

1% is basically the *lowest* reward you get with a rewards card. You can do *much* better. I average about 2.5% over all of my spending.

Some of the better rewards cards include the AmEx Blue Cash (5% on gas/grocery/drugs, but tiered; 1.5% on other, but tiered), Citi Driver's Edge (6% on gas/grocery/drugs, 1% other), Fidelity Rewards Signature Visa (1.5% on everything), and the Capital One No Hassle Miles Rewards Ultra for Professionals (nearly 2% rewards toward airline tickets).

You can use this rewards calculator to see which rewards card will pay you the most for your normal spending profile:

Frosty,
that is a suckers bet, the credit slave company makes 400$ on interest b4 u pay them back.
they also know u'll spend more in credit than in cash by some 20-30%.
suggest u do some reading ,
'the millionaire next door'
'total money makeover'
visit daveramsey.com to learn what credit slavers don't want u to ever know or apply.


blue chick
depends, if you actually need something that costs 2,000 dollars

Don't use credit cards. At all. They will raise your rate on you. Live more cheaply- get a second job. Sell something. But, never ever use a credit card. It's a bad habit. It's like smoking or drinking- you can get addicted and get in bad trouble.

Best wishes.

It's crazy stupid but about par. You mind as well just give yourself the $20.


Steveo
That's a 1% rebate. I guess it's good if you are going to charge anyway. I charge the groceries, gas, my utilities, almost anything. I get 1%, 2%, 3%, and 5%, depending on the merchandise, and the card. As long as you are saving money and paying off the card every month.


zipper
No, that is 1% of what you spent. I avoid using credit cards so I do not really know!

$2000 is a steep price for $20 in savings . I tell u what u give me $2000 and I will give u $20 is that a way to save?

2000.00 at 21% interest over the next 20 years ...are you NUTS !!! for 20.00


KatyCat
That is only a good deal if you can afford to pay the balance off every month. Otherwise the interest you would owe on the card will greatly out balance the $20 you get back. Credit card companies are notorious for making things look like they are giving you a great deal but they are really taking advantage of people!
