I agree that it's strange that they removed the bonus value from the Prestige but didn't touch the Premier. Citi has been making a lot of negative moves with the Prestige and I keep hoping that they'll start adding some meaningful benefits again soon. The 5x categories and DC for everyday spend does make it a compelling pairing though and if the Sears card continues to be amazing, I guess that would be enough to justify keeping it around.
Huh?

With regards to the Sears card, I don't get it. I quickly went through the head and I guess I'm having one of those days, but I don't understand why it's a keeper.
