I think bgriff was referring to IF the Gold card gives the bonus on dining then he/she would have a hard time hitting the 30 transactions on the EDP card since that is what he/she uses right now for lunches to get over the 30 transactions on the EDP ..... which then kicks in the bonus to get 1.5 MR points on all EVERYDAY purchases.

I'm not sure why you are saying "no matter what" as the 1.5 only applies to your account when you exceed the 30 transactions.
