Yesterday I got to thinking. If I paid our bills and all of our other expenses (except rent) with my Reward Zone Best Buy MasterCard, how much could I earn? What if I could earn $15 a month in reward certificates? If so, that would equal $200 a year in reward certificates.

That would be pretty awesome, so I’m on a mission now. On paydays, I am going to use the MasterCard for everything possible, and then pay it every time I use it. Just to clarify, I will be using Bill Pay and not just sending tons of check by mail.

We won’t be getting charged any interest since we will be paying it immediately. This is an opportunity that I never really paid attention to, hopefully things will work out spectacularly.

A side note: I am usually against using credit cards so freely, expenses and interest can quickly add up. I will be paying this right away and consistently, and that’s the only reason I would mention something so silly.

Do you do something similar with your reward programs?
