Points earning credit cards

Does anyone know of any credit cards out there at the moment that you can earn things on for spending on the card, like the ASDA one?

    Just getting something for nothing, lol.

    The ASDA card used to be really good, but it's really lowered the points you get and the money off petrol too. I tend to buy everything on my credit card and always pay it off in full. Sort of using it as my current account so to earn points/vouchers/cash.

    Which ones are best?

    Have you looked at the link? There is a valuator...
    However, personally I think a lot of what is the best depends on what you want.
    For example Tesco is slighly more value then M&S IF you exchange for reward deals, but as I prefer to get a free dress from M&S once a year rather then eat in a restaurant I use my M&S card more...

    Or you can just go for cashback and spend the money on what ever you want.

    All depends what you're after. Air Miles are useless if you never fly anywhere, for example. You'll have to do some research at cards' websites.
    Are you for real? - Glass Half Empty??

    Glad I am not the only one that thinks that Fruit case:-))

    OP - however if you cannot be bothered looking into it all, or just want free choice, go for cashback card. There is also number of those on the market.

    The best paying ones are usually American Express cards though and those are not accepted everywhere. Best from the others is this one...

    1% on everything, but £18 annual charge (but they give you £10 back). So if you spend more then £100 on your card monthly you are quids in.. (or more then £66 monthly if we take that £10 back into account..)
