How Much Cash Back Recieved From Credit Cards

Post subject: For the record books...


Hello everyone,
I'm sure a lot of you have seen my posts. I am a fanatic when it comes to getting the best credit card deal, specifically with cash back. I love the feeling of getting something for nothing.

I was wondering, I have held credit cards for almost 2 years now, and I have never paid a bill late, or not paid in full. I've done this for exactly 22 months, and I've earned a little over $800 in cash back from the credit card companies in that timespan. I was wondering if there are others out there who would freely admit they have tracked their credit card cashback over the years and can post a "running total". Or possibly you've earned a lot of free stuff along with cashback. Whatever it is, it was all courtesy of the credit card companies. Sign up bonuses, cash back rewards, airline miles, free stuff, whatever. Or maybe you would freely admit you have had a "perfect record" with paying in full and on time for a period of years, and the credit card company hasn't made a cent off you in interest charges. Who has done it the longest? Who has earned the most cashback or free stuff from the credit card companies over the years?

I'd like to hear some feedback on this, whether you've earned a lot or a little, I don't care. This is basically open to all the credit card deadbeats of the world. Post away!

Love the topic! I earned several thousand dollars in cash back rebates alone over the years (not including 100s in gift cards/certs.). Love those card rebates!

I started my cashback/rewards history about 15 months ago. I've gotten over $800 back plus some giftcards/certificates to GAP/Footlocker. I try to share with my friends and family and some just think there's more to it to get money back like this. I always tell them before I explaining the whole process that if you pay your bills in full each month then you will want this. I've only "converted" one friend. Oh well, I'll continue getting cashback while they use their plain old cards.
