I have considered "churning" through some new cards just to get those "$250, $500 cashback when you spend $1000 on this card in the first 3 months" sort of deals but that's just a bit much for me.
My goal is to pay off a trip to Hawaii for my gf and I with my credit card rewards. At this point I'm actually pretty close.

Yeah, the new account bonuses are where it's at, but I don't put much effort into them. I had Discover for a while and did the math on a Chase Southwest card, and it was the 60k bonus points that made the difference by far... the month to month points/cash back across various cards all seem to be roughly the same.
