#77 Cred chaining

Chaining multiple credit cards together to make a single payment.

The customer at the end of the line in aisle 2 sighed deeply and rolled his eyes as the girl at the checkout counter fanned out a wallet's worth of plastic—American Express, Visa, MasterCard, Discover—in front of the cashier. "I mean c'mon, do you really need that many cans of Pringles? Would it kill you to put down the pack of Salem Lights?" The woman in front of him turned around, shook her head in agreement, and said, "Cred chaining shouldn't be allowed. It's just not right."
