She will probably change her tune when we go on Cathay first to HKG-BKK-SIN this summer.
I probably do spend too much time here but as I am new to this, there is always something new to learn.
Thanks to all for sharing your knowledge!
Thats the key.. being at the point of obsession.. but not being obsessed..:-:

Nowadays, I leave some lag room between the time I expect to cancel my cc, and the purchases I make on a particular card.. Some buffer works well, and causes less headache when charging to cards..

My main issue being from Canada, is cc fees. I'll keep the card for almost a year, but when annual fee time comes close.. I work that cost into the back of my mind and cancel the card when I need to, to avoid the annual fee charges..
