Dirt Cheap Coupons

LaRues Lady asked:


I've been considering opening an Old Navy credit account in order to get the coupons they mail out (since I can't seem to find any any other way). I have one other department card (Macy's), and two credit cards. I've never been late on a payment and have always paid the full amount before the due date, thus never having had an outstanding balance or having been charged a late fee or interest.

My question is, if I open this line of credit basically to get the coupons and only use it if I have to (if they have specials where you get a discount only if you use your card) and pay it all off before it's due, how will this affect my credit rating?

Thanks!

Does anyone know where I can find a Macy's 20-25% off Coupon that I can use at the department store? I need to buy a couple of North Face Jackets.

My mom and some family members are making a fuss, that they have to go into Macy's for my registery. I shop at Macy's all the time, they have great sales and coupons. I actually picked them because they were CHEAPER then bed, bath and beyond. I don't want to register anywhere else and not to be snotty but I don't shop at walmart, kmart or target unless I need an emerancy box of cat litter or pack of tampons. It's not like it's Nordstroms or Bloomingdales? I don't understand what the big deal is?? It's just a department store and I made sure I have lots of $10-20 small items and gave a huge range of prices, so people didn't feel they had to spend a lot of money.
