Re: How many credit cards do you guys carry with you daily?

 

 

Disc IT

CFU

CSP

C1 QS

Amex BCP

Chase debit

 

The above fit nicely, along with my DL and health insurance card, into a Ridge carbon fiber EDC wallet. It all comes together to make a very sophisticated presentation.

On days when I'm feeling down, I open up my wallet & look at the shiny preciouses and it gives me a feeling of pride seeing how far I've comeSmiley Wink


LOL! I totally get it! I only have my Green Dot secured card, but it is my precioussssss too!

 

Right now I carry my Green Dot, my Discover debit card (because at least I get 1% back on it), my Unify CU debit card (with the LA Rams logo on it!), and a Wells Fargo debit card. I need to make 10 charges a month on the Wells Fargo so there's no fee (so I usually buy little cheap things as I don't have much in my WF checking account). When I'm able to, I'll put more money in my WF checking account to avoid fees that way. My plan is to use Unify debit mostly in the future (for debits) and then whatever credit cards I get whenever I get them.

 

Right now it's just the little Green Dot with its $200 limit which I try to keep under 9%.

Re: How many credit cards do you guys carry with you daily?

This was interesting to read thru. My lineup slightly varies at times, but for the most part it's farily stationary and geared towards cash back

 

  • US Bank Cash+ VS // All Dining @ 5%/2% -- it's funny how many "real" restaurants still gets 5%
  • Amex BCP // Anything Groceries @ 6% 
  • Citi Dividend WMC // Anything Gas Stations @ 5% for Q1 2019, when over back to USAA Amex @ 5%
  • Everything Else // USAA Limitless @ 2.5%
  • Chase debit card

All other cards stay at home unless I have a specific purchase and a card for it.

I carry 4 credit cards on me at all times. These cards are Amex Gold, Venture, Citi Premier and Savor. All of these cards pretty much cover all of the purchases I make.

I also carry a debit card that I rarely use but I just like having one in the event I need to get cash out for an emergency.
