I check my bank accounts often (more often than most of the people:). We have separate accounts with ING for short-term savings but otherwise we only have 1 credit card and 1 debit card. We also have weekly money meeting with a Hubby. That's just works for us! Do what works best for you :)Lenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16064081200654561079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862619607678533825.post-59359443155132986962012-06-06T19:52:03.827-05:002012-06-06T19:52:03.827-05:00I think the key is to keep trying new things until...I think the key is to keep trying new things until you find out what works best for you!

To maintain my rewards checking account (which yields 3% interest) I need to use my debit card 10 times/month, but after those first 10 purchases, I use a rewards credit card.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862619607678533825.post-69708208700880949832012-06-06T10:18:02.141-05:002012-06-06T10:18:02.141-05:00I actually inspired to be like that one day.

My issue with doing that right now is that my credit cards don't offer me any points or any perks at all o it's not really worth it for me, and I have itty bitty limits. That is definitely something I want to do in the future though.bread & butter journalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12023861398976884178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4862619607678533825.post-58414483424067139382012-06-06T10:11:15.346-05:002012-06-06T10:11:15.346-05:00This obviously could prove disastrous for many peo...This obviously could prove disastrous for many people, but I put every expense possible on my credit card. When I get ready to pay the bill, I transfer the amount of money I need to my checking account. My available credit is high enough that I don't worry about going over my limit.Shawandahttp://youhavemorethanyouthink.orgnoreply@blogger.com
