I am sure the resounding answer will be no, but after having to put $850 total on the card last month for an unexpected car repairs and having to buy a new range hood (because our old one finally bit the dust) I think we need we an emergency option. We currently have a $2000 credit card bill this month I am thinking that we should have something that has no interest attached to it (I am thinking of the Citi Simplicity or True Balance card, one has 21 months of interest free, and the other has 15 months and 1% cash on purchases, and 1% cash on payments made).
To get us out of our current predicament DH and I decided we would pay half the bill this month and half next month and avoid using that card until the end of the current billing cycle (8/9), but I wonder if having one just in case might be a good benefit.
I don't want a lecture about having an emergency fund or finance guru X says you should do AbC followed by XYZ. Other than this issue right now the only debt we carry is a car loan of about $13k, and our mortgages. We treat our credit cards like cash and pay them off monthly.
