paying off the card every month to avoid interest.
I do no on line banking, I go to the bank and stand in line so everyone in the bank know me. They were kind enough to tell me about a new program of a prepaid debit card I automatically put an amount in the first of the month. Use the card, at no cost and no interest on all of my store purchases. Not putting my regular debit card account at risk of being stolen. Good customer service I didn’t know I had. I love it.
