And I’m telling you the trips to Walmart or Walgreens and subsequent liquidating do nothing for me except remind me of World of Warcraft grinding.

LOL, that kind of stuff for a no annual fee card that makes money on transaction fees and landlord signups? While you’re at it, why don’t you ask for unlimited free ice cream and a million dollars for each successful applicant?

Nobody is going to make money with 5x travel/gas/groceries with all points having a cash value of 1.5 cpp. A SUB with cash value of $1500 on a no AF card is insane. Even AMEX doesn’t give away the store like that on cards you have to pay a collective $1k for in annual fee. All it’s going to “win” is a trip to bankruptcy court for whatever bank that’s stupid enough to do that.
