I only use my debit card as a debit card too. I rarely use my credit card because when I look at my bank statement I like to know that's how much money I actually have
Scott is the opposite, he has all of his spending in his head, so he uses his credit card for everything and then pays it off and knows exactly how much he can afford to spend.
I only have a small overdraft on my debit card and so far have never had to use it. When I signed up for it, I think it was a $5 fee immediately, but it may have changed since then. The account I have now isn't offered anymore by my bank, but as long as I keep a minimum amount of money in the account, I don't get charged fees for using the debit card. So, I had to go below that number since I rarely carry much cash, and use my debit card for almost everything.
Scott has a credit card connected to Ciniplex movies, and he gets 1 SCENE point (for the SCENE card) for every $1 charged to the card. For every $1000, it's 1000 points, and that's equal to one free admission to a movie
So, we did all the condo renovations for his credit card. We booked 11 vacations to Mexico last year (for us and my whole family) through his credit card. We booked my parents' vacation this year through his credit card. We booked our Europe vacation through his credit card. We are going to movies for free for a long time
