interesting holiday shopping factoid
 
the average american puts $2,000 on a credit card during the holiday shopping season (between thanksgiving and xmas).

and then takes 10 months to pay it off.

:sick:

Frightening. But, not surprising. It's just the way the country works these days I guess. More and more I think people feel interest is just part of living.

Credit Card should be used like CA$H. Don't get it unless you can pay for it, the country would be better off running as a cash economy.

Yup, i use the credit card just so i dont have to carry cash around. What goes on the card gets paid off in full next month. I've never just paid the minimum. If ya can't pay for it, don't buy it! What a concept huh!?

Use the redit card because its easier than writing checks and showing I.D. in every shop.
