Tracy’s favorite credit cards

“Currently, I like to use my American Express^® Gold Card, Chase Freedom Flex^℠ and Wells Fargo Active Cash^® Card to earn a high rewards rate on dining and grocery purchases — the two categories I spend the most in each month. I also love the protections that the card provides on my purchases and travel. My husband and I are able to easily combine our Membership Rewards points to use toward flights and hotel stays.”
