If you’re going to pay anyway for groceries, BART tickets, and phone bills, there’s nothing wrong with getting a few percent back. Just don’t be stupid about it; always know the price of the credit if you use that feature of the card. That said, I don’t see any benefit of the new BART/Chase card. You only get the 5% back from vending machines (where you can’t buy the 6.25% discounted tickets) or online (where you must pay $2.05 shipping), so a penny-pincher will find the Chase card’s special rewards useless.
