I'd love to have a card that gives me miles instead of money, so I can save up for reward travel. But, correct me if I'm wrong, but the 1 mile per dollar spent doesn't really seem like that great of a deal considering there is also a $85 yearly fee, and the miles you earn from spending money aren't even Elite qualifying miles (I think). Is my Chase Freedom card with its 1% cash back and no annual fee simply a better deal? Or is there something about the miles and the extra perks of the CO card that make it worth getting?

Thanks!


IMO, if you have the Freedom card stick with it, the freedom card will let you convert 12000 points to 10000 CO miles plus other ways to redeem, which is almost the same as earning $1/mile, and Freedom has 0 annual fee, however the current offer for 50000 signup bonus for the CO card cannot be simply ignored...
