Re: What is your go to card?? (List order)

My most used cards:

 

-Sallie Mae WMC for gas and groceris (occasionally Amazon)

-US Bank Cash + VS for dining 

-Fidelity Amex for some monthly bills, Costco and all other miscellaneous purchases

 

Less frequently used:

 

-Chase Freedom VS for occasional rotating category spend and miscellaneous bills/purchases when Amex is not accepted

-American Express TrueEarnings for electronics, big ticket purchases and booking travel

-BOA Better Balance Rewards MC gets one bill a month to qualify for the quarterly $25 reward

Well I think I'm done with apping. Just wanted to know what others at my fico think us the absolute best card. Some one had thread on how many cards. 1 guy had 39.


My TU report shows 60 accounts right now, but Ron1 is over 100.

 

#1: Navy CashRewards

#2: Capital One QuickSilver

#3: a card that is set to go inactive. (just used my old BoA/FIA "Interval" card this week to keep it active) Use it once, then back in the SD.

 

There's the whole collection of cards with special perks - office supplies, home improvement, gasoline, grocery, drugstore, ebates, upromise, mypoints, restaurants, etc.

I was going to garden... Honest!

1. Barclaycard Arrival Plus (just got it, bonus already met)

2. Wells Fargo Platinum Visa (for any purchases paid over time--6.25 percent regular APR)

3. Citgo (for gas--I don't drive that much and I like getting the lower prices by using the card)

4. Kohl's (no interest if 1/3 of balance paid each month)

5. Amazon (only for special financing)

6. Lowe's (only for special financing)

7. Simmons First Platinum Visa (if I need a balance transfer or cash advance)

8. Chase Slate (got a large-ish balance I'm paying off at 4.99 percent, but regular APR isn't that great)

My go to card is target! I want to pay everything down to 0 because my utilization rate is improving but still at about 40-50 percent which is not where it should be. Im a spender so for me keeping things under control is crucial right now. Plus, who doesnt like 5% off Smiley Tongue
