Me neither. I have a Visa debit which comes with all the same protections as a Visa credit card. I don’t miss CC’s, not one bit.

You actually have more liability if you debit card number is lost or stolen (i.e. even if you use it at a restaurant, you’re vulnerable.)

We use a designated CC for all purchases (groceries, gas, etc.) and then reap the benefits of reward points...we don’t carry a balance.
