Scored about R1,500 via eBucks in the last 10 months. Filled up my 4x4 twice already for "free".

Getting another R1 200.00 in ebucks this month and possibly even more next month after doing my shopping at Checkers. Converting the ebucks to a R2 000.00 makro voucher. My bank fees in this period is about R250.00.
Show me a bank that's going to give me R1 750 back for doing my normal everyday banking with them.

Hmm interesting. You must have a rigorous bank statement. I must contemplate about switching completely (Capitec client) because the gold card acts as a prepaid credit card, which is want I want + Paypal.
+=1... currently getting about R1000 in ebucks, and I'm also looking forward to the increase resulting from switching from pnp to checkers + the airtime ebucks now that I've moved away from cell contracts... except I'm banking mine to take the family oversea next year... (emirates 40% discount 
)... Definitely getting alot more back than I pay in fees... and that's without my S3 which only costs me R189/month after discounts.

Not really. Wife and I decided that we will be using only my account. Every month she transfers x amount to my account, I have an addition linked card for her, and we swipe our card for 95% percent of our purchases.
I stopped paying Telkom and municpal accounts via EFT and pay them at Checkers when I do my monthly shopping. This makes up already R4 000.00 in swipes and 2.5% back in ebucks. Fuel is about another R3 500.00 swiped. Normal grocery shopping can easily come in at between R3k and 4K. I even swipe for a R6 can of coke. There is no charge for swiping. Most days I do not have any cash on me and if a shop does not have a card machine I go to the next one that does. Only a few times have I come across a shop where the machines were offline or not working. I simply left all my items at the till and left.

Forgot abot the Emirates discount. Went to Turkey via Dubai in July this year and paid R4 000.00 per person return after the 40% discount. Cpt-Dubai, 3 days in Dubai, Dubai - Istanbul, 10 days in Turkey, return Istanbul - Dubai - Cpt.
