If you're looking for a grocery cash back card, the American Express Blue Cash Preferred Card is one of the better ones available.

And with this current deal offering $300 cash back after spending $3,000 in the first 6 months from card approval and a waived annual fee the first year, this is a great opportunity to give the card a try to see if it saves you money on your regular expenses.

Here's a quick rundown of the card's earning benefits.

• 6% cash back on groceries up to $6,000 per year at U.S. supermarkets
• 6% cash back on select streaming services
• 3% cash back on transit (taxis, rideshare, parking, tolls, trains, buses, etc.)
• 3% cash back at U.S. gas stations
• 1% cash back on all other purchases

And, of course, the $300 cash back as a statement credit after you spend $3,000 within the first 6 months from card approval.

And, no annual fee the first year.  $95 each year thereafter.

You can view the card's info and apply at the Amex link below.  This is my referral link, providing a points bonus for approvals made via the link.  Definitely check the American Express site link, too, to ensure you're getting the best bonus possible.

Earning 6% back on groceries is a pretty good deal.  The streaming services cash back amount is nice, but likely won't amount to a huge amount.  The other cash back categories may or may not be valuable depending on your specific situation.

I'm not sure the card's worth the $95 annual fee.  But, with a waived fee the first year, it definitely is something to consider as you look for credit cards to help your bottom line.

Then, cancel or downgrade when the annual fee hits in a year if you find it's not worth that $95 expense.
