Feel like a loser - got turned down for Target debit card

[basketsbears]

Here is one for you, I have to dress for work so on Wed the salavation army has 50 percent off, mind I only go on that day. I got 2 pant 1 express jeans 3 blouses 3 pairs of shoes then 2 pair of shorts and 2 tee for the hub and 3 tank tops 26.00!

Love it! I go to a consignment shop for my clothes. I have lost some weight - so I take my old clothes in, and usually have $ on my account from the sale of those clothes. It is so much fun! They have great buys, and great labels - love it! It is funny, it is actually MORE fun to shop like you and I are shopping than how I used to traditionally shop.

I got a Target debit card while in my 13. They never checked credit...just typed in stuff from my voided check.

Got my card in the mail yesterday!

Just an FYI, the Paypal Mastercard debit card pays 1% cash back, and can be used pretty much anywhere. I even get 1% back on my car insurance. My autopay is linked to that card.

It doesn't seem like much, but I forget about it and every now and then there's a nice surprise in my Paypal account.

My wife got the Target DC before our 13 discharge. Walmart isn't my favorite place to shop, so getting 5% off at Target pretty much seals the deal for me.

I used to get extra credit card points for shopping Target on my credit card, but since I'm on a cash only basis now I guess it doesn't matter where I shop - Walmart or Target. Although my prescriptions are at Target and I guess I just prefer them. Sadly the 5% discount was never enough to get me to apply for a Target card.

Ksgirl38, in case you missed it, the Target card in question is a debit, not a credit card. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I see on the website, if you have your prescriptions there, with the debit card it's an additional 5% off those too.

I guess I did miss that. Although I really don't want another debit card, but the 5% would be nice. I guess any discount is better than nothing.

Thanks for the reminder! I had been planning to apply for a PP debit M/C a month ago, then it slipped my mind, til now.

Just remember, cash back is only good when you don't use a pin with it, so when the clerk says 'debit or credit?' you want credit. Kind of a misnomer since it's not really credit, tied to your bank account. It took me awhile to figure out that I shouldn't use my pin.
