Not if you run a balance and pay interest... then you can shove yer
cash back where the sun don't shine... practically no one pays their
credit card balance each month. And I can't say how many times I've
been on line behind some low IQer who was paying with a debit card and
couldn't figure out whether to put back the potato chips or the corn
chips. Debit card accounts are in fact checking accounts... the low
IQers use debit cards not because they don't want to write a check,
they use debit cards because they can't write, and they certainly are
incapable of basic math.

I mostly pay with cash (green money), gets the checkout person all
flustered, they can't count cash, especially can't give change, about
half the time the checker gives me my change and asks me if that's
right. duh
