We currently have three credit cards
1) Navy Federal for Everyday purchases
2) USAA for trips, flights, car rentals, etc
3) Macys
We opened a Macys account more than 3 years ago when we were registering for our wedding because they promised you a certain percentage of what your guest spend back, also we had just bought a house so it made sense. After our wedding we did get a gift card for close to $300 for all the gift purchases people made. But over the last year I have done some serious thinking with regards to keeping this card.
Two weekends ago I sate down and analyzed our spending on it over the last year.
Total spending totaled about $400.
We purchased the following
-Couple Christmas presents
-Sheet set for our bed
-Clothes for Joe
-Clinque makeup
-Wedding Gifts
This made me realize how much we do not use it and with the fact that you get coupons from Macy's in the Sunday paper every weekend if we did want to get something their we could just use our Sunday coupon.
So this week I called to cancel our card.
When the customer service rep asked my why, I stated we just do not use it.
His answer... "No you don't."
Even more reason!!!
So goodbye to one more credit card!!!
