Citi Bank cut the cash back they give their card holders for gas, food and 
drug store purchases from 5% to 2%. It looks like most other credit card 
companies are no longer offering 5% cash back on these types of purchases or 
are offering 5% for only a limited time.  Or they offer 5% for purchases in 
less popular categories and rotate the categories every 3 months or so. 
Discover Card does this and based on the categories I've seen I would be 
much better off always getting 5% or even 3% on gas, food and drugstore 
purchases instead of the Discover rotating categories.

Does anyone know of any credit cards still offering 5% cash back for gas, 
food and drug store purchases?  The best I've seen is 3%.
