    I currently have 3 credit cards but I really only use one, my Chase Continental card. I use it to rack up an average of 5000 frequent flyer miles a month and that's great. But the card has a $75 a year charge and I'm beginning to think there might be better deals out there.
    Anyone have any ideas of what might be the best current deal? I'm not sure if I should look for cash back or frequent flyer miles. I do know I don't want a yearly fee.
    Thanks.

    I have the Cross Country Beryllium and a La Quinta MasterCard Gold ~ I highly recommend both of these credit cards.

    Uh huh. Yonkers, you may want to do a quick google search for "cross country bank" and see what you get before you get one of their cards....

    I pay mine off each month so I don't care about interest rates.

    The prestige of the Cross Country Beryllium is unmatched ~ when I lay that down at the strip club I get results.

    I can't find a thing on these cards. Beryllium is a metal used in making nuclear weapons. Are you yankin my chain?

    Everybody should have a Discover card. Their customer service is next to none.

    I can't remember the last time I called my credit card company - I hope I never have to. :D
