How many Disney Dollars do you usually earn in a year?

I used to get about $500 a year with the old, but I was using Discover a lot, and stil used my debit for stuff. But upgraded to the premier in May and am taking full advantage of bonus points. I used 880 in June to pay off our trip in September & have earned $215 since then. I literally put EVERYTHING on it, down to using it in the soda machine at work. If Toyota would let me make my car payment with it, I would. I did use it for my car down payment, our new roof, our new HVAC unit, etc, then just pay it off that next day so I won't owe interest.

I just got my card in July and have 217 in Disney rewards on it. I have been using it for everything and paying it off the next day!

Wow! Can you do that every month?

I doubt it we had some home extra expenses during the month and I literally put everything on the card and paid it off....expenses, repairs, gas, groceries, bills, you name it it went on the card. I've got 4 more months to see how many points I can acquire!

Not the Disney card but Starwood Amex, Starwood hotels include Sheraton and Westin, so I can use the points at Swan/Dolphin. I earn enough points for a free 7 night stay every two years. But we aren't going to WDW again until LO is older so we can use the points we are earning now for other trips.

I like this better because I can also use the points for non-Disney trips, for example next month we are doing along weekend to Minnapolis, we're getting 3 nights free at the Sheraton near Mall of America. Or we stayed for a week for free when visiting MIL last April (she doesn't have room for all of us to stay with her).
