I think I have a problem! lol

So, I have about 8 credit cards, however I only use about 4 actively, only carring a balance on one and PIF the others.  But I always feel the "urge" to get a new one...what is wrong with me?  haha.  I recently applied for a preapproval offer that I received in the mail for a 7.99% fixed apr and felt it was too good to pass up as a "what if" card.  Was this a smart idea?  I did feel a bit guilty and disappointed once I got it, because I honestly don't know why I did it.  Does this happen to anybody else?

Situations like this are what the old Sleigh Center and newer Concorduser Center are for!

As long as you continue to read the credit boards it is a rare individual who can escape the siren song for very long. Smiley Happy
