It takes a lot of food to max out a CC at McDonald's.

Re: Well I went a little overboard!

So when are you going to pay it down?

Hope the answer is NOW....

I'm thinking I would be returning some things.

Re: Well I went a little overboard!

Based on your previous post you got a secured card with a 550 limit if I remember correctly ?
I would pay that down immediately . It’s fine taking your card to it’s limit as long as you have the funds to pay it off . You should never charge what you can’t pay off . A maxed out card doesn’t look good. To the lender or to your credit . Next pay day I would pay it off or at least half if you
can’t do it all. Grats on the card just use it wisely my friend !😎😎

You should deposit more into the secured card so you have more limit to spend.
