Still a Lamb Day....More Money from my Credit Card

The mailbox was brimming with money today. I got my latest Credit Card statement, and I made another $7.12 this month.

Now, this might not seem like a lot to you. But, considering there were only 4 charges on my credit card for the month...it is actually quite a bit of money.

If you haven't read my post on the benefit of credit cards, click here. If you have, then you know my 2 favorite cards are the Citi Drivers Edge Credit Card ( 6% on Groceries, Gas and Drugstores ) and another one of their cards..email me for the name and details ( 6% on Utilities, Telephone, Cell Phone, Garbage, Cable/Satellite ).

So, all of these categories are charges most people have every month. Why not get 6% back! My charge this month was for my phone/internet bill ( 2 months charges..since one hit on 1/26 & the other on 2/24 ), cell phone and Dish Network. So, I made $7.12 for paying my bills. Okay, then, I thank you Citi Card! I will gladly take your money!

If you want this credit card for yourself, click here or on the picture at the beginning of this article. You will find their card listed. Please email me directly for the full name, as the company does not allow us to publish their name unless you are a professional finance site.

Update 3/4/08: Thanks for the great question, Evelyn. The Credit Card gives you your credit towards your mortgage. Since she doesn't have one, she wanted to know if she would see a benefit from this card. The answer is YES!! If you don't have a mortgage, they instead give you your reward money as a credit to your card balance. Meaning, if you earned $200 for the year, they would credit your account for $200. So, when your next month's bills hit ( say they were $200 for the month to make it easy ), you wouldn't have to pay it. So, you still get all the money. In fact, it is almost better that way!
