You can also choose to donate any cash you’ve earned to charities currently providing relief to Haiti such as the Red Cross.
Here is the Discover 5% Cashback schedule for 2010:
- January to March: Travel
- March: Grocery and Drug Stores
- April to June: Home and Fashion
- July to September: Gas, Hotels and Movies
- October to December: Restaurants, Department Stores and Clothing Stores.
