    [quote=sdduuuude]Credit card gives me freq. flier miles or, with Discover, a discount. I would choose that.[/quote]
    Yep – use a rewards or ff points credit card if that option is open.

    Some places only take paypal – so I use my PP when that’s the case.

    If I’m making a foreign transaction (purchase or rental deposit in a foreign currency) then I use my Cap One credit card to get the better exchange rate.

    It’s all about reducing transaction costs, increasing rewards. Whatever costs me the least.

    There have been a couple of articles suggesting that’s the plan.

    Interesting times.
