The decision to downgrade my Citi Prestige card is one that I don’t take lightly. The Citi Prestige card is one of my favorite cards in my wallet today. Access to Priority Pass and Admirals Club lounges, the 4th night free benefit, and the $250 Airline credit all make the card worth carrying. Sadly, Citi is…

Just 20 days ago I finally booked my four night stay for an upcoming trip through the Citi Concierge.

More importantly this site gives you a complete credit…

The best part, as if it wasn’t already good enough, is that this benefit is UNLIMITED. Card-holders can…
A few weeks ago Chase officially killed the online sign-up bonus of 100,000 points for the Chase Sapphire Reserve. Although the online offer was reduced to just 50,000 points, new applicants could still receive the 100,000 point offer by visiting a Chase branch and applying in person. This Sunday, March 12th, the 100,000 in person…

As we continue with round one of Credit Card Madness it is time to start comparing low annual fee credit cards. This next set of card comparisons all have annual fees under $100/year.
