“For example, one of my favorite points-earning cards from American Express, the personal gold card, earns four times points on dining and grocery spend. But the four times points on grocery spend caps out at $25,000 spent on the card annually. And there's a limit of four times points on worldwide restaurant spend of $50,000 annually.”
