while the maxinum yearly match is 250, but you only get the 100% match for the first 3 months before dropping to 5%. so during the promotional 3 months it is a good deal especially if most of your purchases are under $50. after the first 3 months, a 1% cash back credit card creams it unless a lot your purchases are .99 items, one at a time(so with sales tax, the bill is 1.0X).
one of the best place to use this program is gas stations. fill up for 10.01 and get .99 match during the promo is ~10% off.
