Best cash rebate card… Do I already have it?

Hi all!  I've been reading these forums a lot lately and have been asking friends the above question... but figured I'd make this my 1st post.   I've been with AMEX for a long time, using the Platinum card.  When I first got it I was able to take advantage of the travel perks, which made the AF worth it.  For the past year or 2 I haven't used any of the perks at all; except when I broke my cell phone, which I paid for with the card, they credited the full purchase price!  So I think it's time to same myself $450/yr and switch to a cash rebate card.   Currently I have the following:   AMEX Platinum AMEX Blue Cash (Just recently PCd from a Starwood Preferred to avoid the $45/yr AF) Chase Sapphire Chase Slate Discover More   The only one that is completely worthless is the Slate.  Besides a high CL I don't get rewards or anything with it.  It's a no AF card so I just keep it in a drawer. I've seen a lot of chatter about the Penfed card but I don't know anything about it.  Is the Blue Cash one of the top rebate cards?  The Discover?   Thanks for any input!
