Seems the two most popular right now are the IT CB and IT Miles. The IT Miles seems like the best option simply because it is essentially 1.5% CB it just has to be used towards travel purchases you made with the card, correct? The 5% back on the IT CB I am not sure is as useful as I already have the Amazon prime card but then again at least the first year for Q4 I could get 10% back at amazon but after the first year it seems like minimal benefit as we also have Chase Freedom.

So wondering if anyone here has any suggestions/advice? Are there other discover brand cards out there worth looking at?

thanks
don't forget discover gives you double cashback/miles first year. so the 1.5% CB card is 3% for the first year.
