Not counting your debit card with the visa/MC logo (if you have one).

Yep, for just about everything. We get cash back and pay the balance in full each month.

We only have 1 credit card that dh uses to buy car parts with over the phone. We pay it off whenever it appears on the statement. Sometimes we go months without a charge on it.

Other than that, no store charge cards or charge accounts anywhere.

We have one that we earn points on, but I try not to use it simply because I do not trust myself.

I have one I use that's carrying a balance (yes, it's bad I know) and the other is paid off and I don't use it. It's my back up as I have no savings right now.

I use mine for everything, everyday. I don't use a debit card at all, I like having an extra month to pay everything off. I used it today when I charged my $2 purchase at Walgreens. I pay it off every month and get a rebate check from them every year.
