Today's Peeve Of The Day, Saturday 13th August. (cost, best, letter)

[Jezer]

Welcome to the weekend peevers.

I'm just going through the post that has just arrived and one letter is from a store giving me an update on the status of my loyalty card points.

To be honest I got it years ago and never use it. Mrs J carries loads of them around in her purse. So my peeve is not for everyone.

Today's peeve;

So many different credit/loyalty cards to be carried around.



I keep it very simple- one credit card, one debit card and my AA (your AAA) card. That's it.

How about you?

I have one at the moment and agree it's best to keep it simple! I prefer cash and rarely ever use a card!

[Jezer]

Mrs J here - have just read Mr J's post and just to make it clear, I have one credit card and a few store cards for gathering points (being careful with the money!).
I do NOT subscribe to the store credit cards which usually have horrendous terms including high interest rates.

I'm not peeved by all the credit/loyalty cards that are around - but I am jealous of your Saturday mail delivery, Mr & Mrs J! Growing up in England I loved the Saturday mail delivery... hearing the thud as mail was plopped through the letter box in the front door, especially at Christmas time. During the week, I had usually left for school before the postman came.

Here in Australia, Saturday mail was canned donkey's years ago - and our mail boxes are at the front gate.

I have two credit cards (one I never use - it costs me nothing to have it so it's just for emergencies), one supermarket reward card (just for points - no credit attached to it) and one debit card. I also have the obligatory NRMA card (like your AA or AAA card).

[Nomadicus]

Only one supermarket card and will be down to one debit card tomorrow. No store or other credit cards of any kind. Debit card same as cash.

Can't use what I do not have....paid everything off couple years back and never going back hopefully!
Now I do carry those reward little key chain thingies that they scan to get discounts and that's as far as it goes

[Sudcaro]

No credit cards here - just debit and AAA, just like you Jezer!
I have a few loyalty cards but hardly ever use them, I take them when I know I'm going to that store but don't have them all handy at all times...

[Gue]

It's those reward cards that are a pain.

My key ring is too heavy again!

I have a couple of items more. I have only a few loyalty cards. I try to keep things simple. I whittled down my unused loyalty cards awhile ago. It just seemed silly to be rummaging around for stuff I didn't need.

Good peeve, Jezer. I hate standing in line behind people while they frantically look through a batch of cards, looking for the right card.

I keep 3 cards in my wallet:

1) ID
2) Credit card
3) ATM/Debit card
