Nope, we do a lot of shopping with cash and throughout the year, so it's not all in a couple weeks' time. Anything we do put on the credit card gets paid off right away. I had myself in waaaaay over my head about 7 years ago, and after credit counseling I cut up all but one card. I never want to be maxed out on any card again, especially over one holiday that isn't even supposed to be about materialism.

No, I shop within my budget and make homemade gifts (food, mostly). I also try to spread Christmas shopping throughout the year to avoid one huge bill.
I pay off my credit card every month. Why on earth would I max them out if I couldn't pay them off on time every month? That's how you acquire credit card debt- by buying things you can't afford.

No, although I spend quite a lot of money my credit cards won't be maxed out because I have high credit limits.

No no one should max out their credit card that is irresponsible.
That is how people get into trouble with bills.

Nope. I live within my means. If I can't pay it all off at once, I don't buy. That's how you stay out of credit trouble.
