Right? I see advice to carry just one card and I think You've
never had your card not readable by some store? It's happened to
me a couple of times, luckily I carry more than one type of card.


Make sure they are different. Like a Master Card and Visa card. I have
been in a place that would only take one kind.

I do carry three kinds. Overkill maybe but I'm covered.

I usually have several cards with me. Seems that each one gives
different ammounts of cash back at different places. One will give 3 %
at a drug store, another will give 3 % at a gas station, and one gives
back 5 % at the choice stores of the month. Then there is the cards for
each store that give cash back only at that store.

After Costco switched to Visa and I also had to replace my Costco
American Express, I took to carrying a cheat sheet (okay, tiny scrap
of paper) to remind me what rewards were better in what type of store.
It's gotten complicated. Nice problem to have.
