If the goal is max URs, I think this is really the best answer, assuming you don’t have to go too far out of the way to get those Visa or MC gift cards.
I am currently not category shifting grocery spend (that’s what it’s called) as I am using my Citi Premier card to build up my TY points balance with grocery and dining spend. But I have in the past, and at some point I will switch back to Staples/OD/OM gift cards. They are pretty easy to get in my area and I use them for other spend that I would otherwise only earn 1X on.
