well on our evening news they had the consumer reporter talking about shopping a Thrift Stores and that even though they are a great bargin  - they say Credit Card users beware. They said that using your credit card in these type of stores - the credit card companies look at it as you are not having enough income coming in and maybe out of a job! Even if you are paying on time. They can use this against you and lower your credit rating.

 

They said they will not be able to do this when the law is in effect - but until then they say buyer be wairy!
