I do that all the time. It's called a DEBIT card, and it's same as cash, coming out of my checking account.

Yeah but that's debit. No worries there. That is actually your money you're spending. I'm with you there.

Quote from damnit:

All adults in my family pay for $5 things at grocery stores to get the 1% cash back with credit cards. Who wants to carry around a bunch of twenties anyway. I spend $1000 a month and get $10 with my card. You spend $1000 cash and get a hard on.

by the way, I pay mine in full every month and buy anything from a tv to gas to a pack of cigs to a candy bar on my f---ing credit card. Stop with the bullshit and get a life.

Daddyeaux, stand by for threatening psycho PM's from damnit.

I'm with ya. I have to spend the money any way one way or the other for food, gas..... I pay off every month in full and get a couple hundred a year back on what I spend. Better than what I get in interest on the money in money market. So my dollar is worth 1.01 to 1.05 depending on what I've got to buy anyway. Best of all you try getting your couple hundred back if you lose your wallet

What's wrong with that? I do it all the time to get rebates, airline miles, etc. and pay my bills in full every month.

Because most people do not have the dsicpline to use that strategy properly....

so they end up in massive debt. Your strategy has merit, but most who try that fail...

hmmm...sounds alot like trading.

Simple concept, profitable opportunity...but lack of discipline will kill it.
