Hello, everyone.
I feel so blessed. I use cc #2 monthly for paying one bill. We also occasionally charge other things to it and it has rewards points which you can cash in for credit, a check, gift cards, etc. I don't like gift cards because they sometimes have fees attached to them or are limited to a specific store. They also have expiration dates and I don't have the time to keep up with such things. I would rather have a credit on the account if I have a balance or a check that I can deposit and spend however I want to. Today, I logged into the account and found that I had 5,000 rewards points. I cashed them in for a credit on the account because I currently have a balance. I am counting this as found money on my 52 week challenge.
Old 52 Week Challenge Balance $573.04
cc #2 rewards points $25.34
New 52 Week Challenge Balance $598.44

I understand in reference to the gift cards. I purchased one today for $25 and was charged $4.95 additional, I'm assuming because we bought the visa one.
