We always pay our CC bills in full each month.
ETA - I'm 30 and I've never carried a balance on my credit cards. My parents reamed that into me.

Despite having parents who drilled financial responsibility into us from a young age, I have a good amount of CC debt. It will be a long time before it's gone, unfortunately. But I'm glad I'm not the only one! I'm usually too embarrassed to post on these threads hearing y'all talk about your finances/debt/etc, lol.

Usually don't - unexpected moving and vehicle maintenance costs right when I stopped work (maternity leave hadn't kicked in yet) means we're currently carrying a small balance but I prefer not to carry one at all.

Discover -- our apartment when we lived by you, we could pay by CC! Now we can pay utilities on it, which rocks.

My parents instilled good cc use on me as well, then I got divorced, and I worked hard to pay it all off. Now I have a small balance that will be paid off in a couple months. We had some unexpected things come up and I couldn't keep up with it for a couple months while I was on maternity leave.

Yes, but not much. I didn't get one until last year and I don't use it very often.
