Am Ex, Visa or MC (not carrying a balance)?

Anybody know their cards well enough to believe one reward program stands out above the others?

Totally depends what you're looking for. Are you looking for miles on a specific airline or the freedom to choose? Capital One isn't bad if you are looking for freedom, if you are looking for airline specific miles it will depend on which airline.

I got $.45 off a gallon of gas for one fillup using my Winn-Dixie rewards card.

Agree with Nexgator that it depends on what you're looking for. Personally, I am all about cash back, so I use the Pentagon Federal Credit Union Visa card. 5% back on all gas purchases, 2% back at supermarkets, and 1.25% back on everything else. If you're not a military member, you have to join the National Military Families Association in order to get the card ($20/year, but once you're a member, you are eligible for the card forever, even if you leave the NMFA). You also have to open a bank account there -- I did so with a $5 deposit. But for that initial outlay of $25, I've been getting approximately $20-25 per month -- upwards of $300 per year -- in cash back simply by charging my gas and groceries on the card. It's well worth it!

We have acquired a lot of points on our USAA credit card.

Enough to buy a couple of nice Christmas gifts.

Just got three $100 Best Buy gift cards from my Holiday Inn Priority Club Visa but am looking to know if there's not some clear winner rewards card.
