Just had a baby and of course that came with about 8k worth of medical bills, so I thought how could I get some of that money back?! So here is what I did.
*Once you get the points keep the card for however long you have too and then cancel it. Wait a few weeks/months and sign up again.
First thing for most of these deals you need to be spending the money anyway or it is not free money..
Depending on how much you are spending on bills/toys/rent etc you can sign yourself up for multiple cards and your wife. For us to get the most back I signed up for 3 cards and my wife signed up for 2.
First one is the Chase southwest card. Spend 2k in 3 months and get 50k points which is good for 500$ in amazon(aka jetski parts!), cabelas, or a wide range of other gift cards.

Another good one is the chase sapphire card which if you spend 3k in 3 months you can get 400$ in cash or statement credit. Also get an extra card on your account with your wife/mom/ or dogs name on it and you get another 5k in points. so 450$

There are a ton more but the ones I used are expired so you will need to hunt down new ones. Some cards you only have to buy .01 worth of gas to activate the points but those are getting harder to find, probably because of people like me who only bought .01 worth of gas. =P
Yes this could possible affect your credit score, but chances are if you have good credit it wont. I have been doing it for YEARS and have a 780 score and just bought a house with no issues...
