In reply to Jennifer Stevens | Adventurous Appetite. It makes life SO easy. Any time I've ever suggested the idea, my travel companions fall wildly in love with it. So simple, so life changing!

I love the idea of a money sharing envelope! Such a simple idea, but I’ve never thought of it. Will definitely suggest this next time I have a travel buddy.

I literally ended up using the same two cards… CS is amazing I lost my card a total of 4 times and every time they got it back to me efficiently. They are excellent. Awesome post.

In reply to Aria. Hey Aria! I hope you signed up when there was a big sign up bonus :) That's the key! I sign up for cards when I have a big purchase coming up, which helps, and I just put absolutely EVERYTHING on my card and never pay cash unless absolutely necessary. Also, if I'm trying to meat a sign up bonus spend minimum, I might buy products I use (like my Lush Shampoo, for example) in bulk for the whole year ahead. Hope that helps!

Just signed up for the Capital One Venture thanks to your recommendation! Do you have tips on maximizing the value of the card/rewards? I don’t spend a ton of money
