I have 2 but only ever use one. The other one is the one i used to use until I got the one I have now. I immediately stopped using it once I got the new one but never got rid of the old one.

just the one

1

My credit is pretty terrible

I avoid credit at all costs. It just sounds like a trap to me. If you can afford a monthly payment just save that much each month and then buy what you want.

Does a debit card count?

4 if I count samsungs td bank one that's digital only no card. only 1 actual card has a balance. 776 credit boi!!!!

Just two. Chase Freedom and Capital One Quicksilver.

It would've been three, but the third was just a Best Buy card. They closed it a month or two ago after it had been years since I used it lol

I'll still probably get a 3rd before the year is up. Probably Discover or AMEX.

2.
1 for Amazon
1 for everything else (originally got it for travel, then realized it makes way more sense to use my credit card than my debit card)
---

I got 4. They're nifty if you use them right

4 Chase cards, 4 AmEx, 3 Citi, 2 Discover, 2 BoA, 2 Barclaycard, and a local bank credit card

2 but i only use 1. the other 1 i got from some tire place because it was like buy 3 tires and get 1 free with the card or something. would have canceled it but it actually helps me build credit since my main card is from a credit union and they only use 1 credit bureau so my other card helps with the other 2.

i have 10

yes, using it responsibly can be difficult. but i just booked 2 business class tickets to south korea (valued at 12,000 dollars) for free using credit card points. and now im about to book a week's stay at a luxury 5 star hotel.

its a trap yes.

for them.

5 if I count my work credit card but only 3 I use on a regular basis (including my work card)

0

1 debit card

Just one (Chase Sapphire Preferred).

I just bought an engagement ring and put the whole balance on the card. Good on Chase for not declining the transaction even though I have a history of making big purchases.

I bought the rings for my wedding last week and had to go through paypal with my credit card. both of them needed validation and took me like 20 minutes more to get it done
on one hand i'm glad there was security on a large purchase, but on the other it was annoying
