Treat Yourself!

I got an email from a store credit card that I had paid off almost three years ago that if I didn't make a purchase using the card soon they would be closing my account. I did what any financially savvy woman would do. I used the card to treat myself to a new pair of Ugg slippers and I'll be paying off the purchase when the bill comes. I'm so proud of myself that I've become this responsible in the time since I paid off the account.

That's awesome that you are paying off the card immediately! That's the best way to use a credit card - don't let them earn interest from you.

Props to you! How exciting. It's a great feeling to know you can make a purchase and not feel guilty about it later. UGG slippers are also the best, especially given most of us are working from home right now. Being comfortable is key :) Congrats and it's good to treat yourself once and awhile. If you aren't the one to do it, who will?

It seems that you have your financial house in order and are comfortable making the purchase. My only word of caution would be only use the card if you like the company it belongs to and don't be intimidated by them threatening to cut you off. Yes you deserve to treat yourself, just on your terms.
