    I love this card. Not only is there no limit, they also do not exclude getting gas from Sam's Club. American Express excludes gas from Sam's, which defeats the benefit since gas is usually much cheaper there. I only use the card where I get full advantage of the 3% cash back, and use Wells Fargo Active Cash for most other categories.

    I actually agree that it's nice WF doesn't exclude competitor grocery chains for the 3x. If you use Costco for the gas 4x at grocery chain gas stations, you only get 1x.. learned the hard way. I only use Costco Visa only at Costco gas. I use WF autograph to get gas if I have to get it at grocery gas stations.

    Well personally I don't spend anything on Transit, I think this cards 3% for Gas is good, From my perspective I think people that love to save money can find it easy to spend less than caps mentioned in the video For example, I usually advocate for the Amex BCE, it gives 3% Grocery and 3% Online shopping, I do think its online shopping category does also encourage more spending, so it takes intentionality to use it more for necessary spend that one may not choose to get at a grocery store, such as shoes, clothes, higiene products, etc etc, things the likes of Walmart, Amazon, and Target sell I use a Citi Custom Cash for 5% on gas, I don't naturally spend more than $500/month or $6000/year on gas so it works for me

    I didn't really call anything optional or mandatory My stance is more like, 3% cashback on a $25 phone bill is $0.75 2% cashback on the same bill is $0.50 The unspoken part is, I don't think most people want to optimize every category they spend in, because they would be running around with a binder full of cards, so when making a value judgement about which cards to prioritize getting, Then the phone category on this one adds $0.25/month of value (over any 2% card) on their expected return if they are spending $25/month, or if they spend more than $25/month on their phone bill they now have the knowledge that they can reduce their bill to $25/month by switching to a MVNO, anything they do with that information is up to them. As someone that loves saving all I can say I ended up switching phone plans, keeping my existing 2% card, and prioritizing cashback in other areas
