I have 2. I have one for the place I work because it automatically has my employee discount on it, and I have a mastercard too.

Right now I only have 2. I only use one and the other one is a back-up for emergencies (I don't carry it with me).

I use to have 5 but learned my lesson very quickly on how many is to many.

I now have only 1 which I use for emergencies or for on-line shopping were you can only use a credit card.

I would prefer not to have any but we have developed very much into a credit card society and there are tons of things you can't do if you don't have one.

5 - but we've paid off 2 and will be cutting them up. The gas cc we will keep and plan on paying off the other 2 as quick as we can. We don't want any credit card debt!

None, DH does not believe in them, if you can't pay cash, you don't get it. I keep trying to tell him we should have one for emergency. That is what savings is for is his response. Only thing we owe on is our house, it is actually kind of nice.

3 sort of...I charge every thing on one card & pay off the balance every month. Another card is for emergency (knock on wood we haven't had the chance to use it). The last one is our ATM card but can use it like VISA. I only use this card if the vendor doesn't accept my first card.
