Discover Cardholders Get New 5% Category for 4th Quarter
If you have a Discover it card, you can currently earn 5% at Restaurants and PayPal purchases this quarter. Then next quarter, you get 5% back on Amazon and Digital Wallets payments.
But there are also some other categories where select cardholders can earn 5% cash back during the months of October and November. Discover is sending out emails offering additional categories for 5% earning. Let’s take a look at the details.

Normally I shun the 5% Discover Cashback at Target because the Target RedCard gives an instant 5% discount. However Discover is still useful at Target to for the categories that are excluded from the RedCard discount such as gift cards (of course).
Once again, I haven’t received squat.
