We only carry a balance on one store card, and that's because it's interest-free. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1455050 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 14:26:35 +0000 artsyfartsy 1455050@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None! We use debit for everything. We are about to be down to only our mortgage debt wise and I'd like to keep it that way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1455040 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 14:24:59 +0000 Parkersmama 1455040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One joint Amex and one joint chase freedom which I love! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454714 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:42:55 +0000 cmomma17 1454714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One each. Mine is a store card that we used for one purchase, paid off, haven't touched again (although DH wants to!). His is a mastercard, which he added me to so I guess technically it's now "ours" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454640 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:32:53 +0000 prettylizy 1454640@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One joint visa and we also have a Kohls card because the deals are sooooo good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454610 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:28:59 +0000 Happygal 1454610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3 for me, 1 for him. I would like to keep them all open, but get smarter about how we use them....like both of us use just 1 and pay it off in full each month, maximizing rewards. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454607 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:28:34 +0000 yoursilverlining 1454607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have 1 joint Chase card that we make all of our purchases on for the points and then pay off each month. We each have 1-2 individual cards that we very rarely use but won’t cancel because they establish our long credit histories. </p> <p>I have a few store cards (Gap, etc.) I really never use unless it’s some super savings for using the store card. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454598 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:27:52 +0000 MrsBrewer 1454598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We each have 1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454573 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:25:19 +0000 DillonLion 1454573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 open lines, but the cards are cut and we dont lan to use them ever again </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454565 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:24:22 +0000 AmandaB8 1454565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well. We each have a bank credit card. Mine is paid off, but his has some emergency purchases when we bought our house (it'll be paid off by the end of the year). We also have a card for a local store that we bought our appliances at - we have 0% until the end of 2015, and it'll be paid off by then. </p> <p>I have a Target card, Home Depot card, and Kohls card, but they never have a balance. I just use them for the discounts. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454561 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:24:05 +0000 hellobeeboston 1454561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454547 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:22:49 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1454547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>None!

That's why I'm thinking about getting another one. I already don't use my oldest one, one of them is my Target card, so I really have one official card. I feel like if we get another one, we can just put everything household into that card and personal purchases on our own cards to help me budget. We pay all everything off every month so this wouldn't create any issues. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454505 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:15:18 +0000 coopsmama 1454505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one and DH has two (one of which is our CC for Costco). We pay them off on time so we never pay interest -- mostly just have them for the convenience factor and to cash in on bonus points. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454479 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:09:51 +0000 lilteacherbee 1454479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We each have 1. I also have a care credit account, but I don't count that one because I only used it to pay for LASIK a few years ago. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454450 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:04:49 +0000 Smurfette 1454450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH has one for work.

Then we have a Discover jointly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454440 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:03:50 +0000 MrsH 1454440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If store credit cards count then I have half a dozen or so. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-credit-cards-do-you-have-1#post-1454434 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 13:02:57 +0000 snowjewelz 1454434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: Me too.
