I typically spend more than $200 on gasoline alone, followed by an additional $200 for telecommunications, cable, etc. and $100 on fast serve restaurants as well as groceries, etc. I always come very close to $600 in the prescribed categories every month.

It sounds great, but there seems to be a big catch. I've been using mine for a couple of months now, but I'm finding that most of the purchases are put in the category of "other", and don't count as purchases in any category, even though they obviously would fit into one. That would include the $950 I charged at Home Depot. I'd estimate that if you spend $1000 a month on the card, maybe $200 would fit into one of their 15 categories. Think again.
