But if you don't pay off the whole thing each month aren't you just handing high percents of interest to the card companies?
If I am to pay it off every month, what is the point of a credit card, a credit is used for help spread the cost, in my case it's 14% interest, balance transfers and cash advances cost $7 per transfer but interest is only charged after the end of the month if not paid back. 14% interest isn't so bad as the balance from month to month with be low, less than $250 just to keep it rolling. There is no annual fee for the credit card I have, so overall I am happy with the arrangement, considering Capital One keep on offering me a card at 29.9%, which is a no chance in hell APR!
