Could someone please give an opinion how to do this effectively.
I'm fairly new to this as well. I started in the summer but I've been spacing out my applications/acceptance so I can hit my spending limits without trouble. In your case I would start with any cards that give you a portion of the bonus with the first purchase, do that first purchase so at least you will get some of the bonus. Then work your way through the cards the easiest spending limits first.
