Yep, and it might be overkill, but it's also why I use every single one of my cards at least once a month, even the ones I don't use regularly.  I've had many, many statements cut with nothing more than a Slurpee purchase on them. Smiley Happy

Some people out there really think it is ignorant to purchase something under 5 dollars with a credit card.  If they only knew.

I got a calendar with card holder that I keep my low limit CC (w/ 0 blance)... I move it up every 2-3months and just buy drinks on them and then pay in full...  but i'm sure you can put can do same thing by writing a note on calendar and putting cards away ;p

We all have methods, but one of the keys to playing the credit card game is to "use it or lose it".
