Amex is currently offering $250 to people who are approved for the Blue Cash Preferred card, aka the one with 6% back on groceries. This is the highest bonus we can recall seeing for this card, so if you’ve been considering it, now would be a good time to pull the trigger.
If you obtain this card and you use it for nothing but groceries for a year and hit the $6,000 cap on the 6% rewards, you come out $535 ahead even after paying the $75 annual fee. Note that you can always downgrade to the no-fee Blue Cash Everyday card if you eventually decide the annual fee isn’t worth it.
To get the offer, visit this site and enter your information (no SSN needed) and the offer should pop up.
