I am proud of you Appbar!


i wish it was a SP not a HP....but i do need to get a CLI on this card soon 


Why?


i need to get a suit for a wedding and they have good prices on suits and if i get a 30% off coupon with no tax here in my state it will be even better


Credit improvement is a slow process and you need to build a solid foundation.

 

There's always going to be a wedding, funeral, party, or some other reason to spend money. You can't lose sight of long term financial goals or the differences between credit, debt, and cash.


yea but if one can save 30% on a 300 suit wouldnt you do it? plus i am saving up for it so i can just pay it off...plus i own no suit what so ever


Not if its going to set you back even further for your future credit goals!!!

Besides Kohls has plenty of really nice suits for under $200 as well.

I see them on the circulars all the time, hell, my "interview suit" was bought there on sale at $168 and then an additional 20%.
