Maximize Q2 2020 Chase Freedom 5% Cash Back – $75 of free money

Buy Jewel, Mariano’s, Trader Joes and Whole Foods gift cards: If you aren’t getting more than 5% cash back on groceries from another credit card here’s a chance to get 5% off now and in the future. If you won’t spend $1,500 in three months at the grocery store and you have the cash consider buying Jewel, Mariano’s, Trader Joe’s and/or Whole Foods gift cards to use later in the year. The Grocery Store category does not include purchases made at Target, Walmart, Costco, Sam’s Club or any warehouse clubs.

Buy third party gift cards at Jewel, Mariano’s and Whole Foods: Jewel sells gift cards for Starbucks, Nordstrom, Macy’s and more depending on your Jewel. Whole Foods sells Amazon gift cards which you can load into your Amazon gift card balance to get 5% off in the future. My local Mariano’s does not allow you to purchase third party gift cards with a credit card and their selection is limited. YMMV.
