−	~~{{Box\|Temporary Opportunities}}~~
−	Because the opportunity to travel has dropped due to the Covid pandemic, several credit card companies have made temporary changes to their travel-oriented credit cards. Many of these cards have boosted the rewards you earn at grocery stores.
−
−	~~<ul class="bulletlist">~~
−	*The Chase Sapphire Reserve earns 3x Ultimate Rewards points on your first $1,000 of grocery store purchases per month until the April. The $300 travel credit also works against grocery store (and gas) purchases until the end of June. The Sapphire Preferred earns 2x.
−
−	* Grocery store charges count towards the Citi Prestige Card's $250 travel credit. But if you still have unused credit on your card, you are probably better off making restaurant purchases, which also work with the credit, but earn 5x ThankYou points per dollar.
−
−	* Many co-branded Chase cards earn 5x points on up to $1,500 of grocery store purchases until the end of March. To get this higher reward rate, you'll need to register them first.

 '''If you don't want to build up Membership Rewards points, the Blue Cash Preferred cards is a great option'''.  It earns 6% cash back on groceries and streaming services (and 3% cash back on gas and transit). This isn’t as high as the EveryDay Preferred Card or the Gold Card, but you don’t have to worry about meeting the minimum transaction requirement, you get the rewards as cash, and you don't have to deal with frequent flyer programs to get good value from your points. $95 annual fee.

-'''If you can use a "mobile wallet" at your grocery store, the Altitude Reserve is a great option'''.  While its 4.5 cents per dollar is a little lower than you can get from other cards, you can get bonus rewards at many other businesses. Once you factor in the travel credit, its annual fee is lower than the best options and it comes with a nice set of additional features.

-'''If you spend a lot at grocery stores, the Amex Gold Card is the best card for grocery spending'''. It earns 4x Membership Rewards, valued at {{Value|MR|4}} cents per dollar. But unlike the Everyday Preferred and Blue Preferred cards, bonus rewards are capped at $25,000 worth of spending instead of $6,000. If you are willing to put in the extra effort, you can augment your natural grocery store spending by buying gift cards at the grocery store and using them at other businesses—earning up to 100,000 Membership Rewards points per year. The card has a hefty $250 annual fee, but comes with a $100 airline incidental credit, a $10/month credit at a number of different restaurants, and a 4x Membership Rewards bonus reward rate on restaurant spending.
