I’ve used mine for many different redemptions. Some for as little as 1 cpp when it made sense for our travel desires. I’ve also redeemed for Emirates F which had a rate of 16 cpp (not that I’d pay the cash fare!).

Do you pay your credit cards in full every month?

I ask because I’ve let my credit spending get a bit lax since moving and adopting a puppy recently, so I haven’t been paying them off in full every month like I used to (though still well above the minimum payment, and keeping utilization at 30% or under). It got me thinking about how many people adhere to this advice.
