Yes, Amex (personal) Gold. Otherwise: 5x quarterly on Chase, and off-quarters can get 5x on Chase via VGCs via Ink/Office (which usually I load into Costco GCs, where I buy most of my groceries). Also have OBC, but haven't been using because of same issue. Plenty of other cards Hilton, Wyndham, etc that reportedly don't mind sprinkling in some sugar, and several others that promo for a few months increased multipliers on grocery spend (or any spend). Gold otherwise kicks back $100 in my estimation toward uber (that I would use), but has limited additional value besides occasional 4x on restaurant (not a big spender here) or 3x on flights (which I usually use for taxes/fees, but which can be bested with 5x out there). Hard sell for Gold if they're gonna be draconian and surveil for such small numbers
