LOL, I think you know the answer to that Rolling eyes

At least you can travel there for 90 days without doing anything but bringing your passport Mr Green

LOL, I was unable to use my Discover over there, if I remember correctly. Just Visa and Mastercard in most cases Bleah

I don't have an Amex, but I knew a couple people who had problems finding places to take them Sweat

O___o;; I didn't mooch off anyone....I lived off of a student loan, I didn't stay with anyone Beaten

Credit cards were used for *some* shopping. I didn't use them all that often. Usually I'd email home, tell someone to deposit some loan money into my bank account, then go to the ATM w/ my debit card. I did that so I could budget myself and not spend too much too early. We all know how expensive it is over there Sweat

Sometimes because of the time difference, when I needed money, I would charge groceries, then make an online credit card payment when the money was in my account Bleah

But for shopping things and mailing things back home, I wasn't able to pay that off right away Sad

Discover? I don't have that yet.

I only use my JCB and Amex.

And my Visa only at places that don't accept JCB or Amex. Smile

I have that Amex blue cash card and the Marukai JCB card.

But I don't spend enough (charge rather) to make it worth my while. Sweat
