careful with the whole credit card thing. It can be a good way to build your credit history so that in the future you can get bank loans to buy a house or car, but credit cards can also just land you in deep debt. Look for cards with zero interest. Be sure they offer zero interest on purchases, not just balance transfers. Most zero interest rates are for a limited time of 6 months to a year. so don't forget that they will start charging interest eventually.
