Most debit cards are both these days , they ' re debitcredit , and hotels take them . I used mine at hotels and rental cars for years , because I got airline mileage from it . You have to be seriously poor or have really , really shit credit to have a card that ' s just debit . <| sep |> One time I was running on a day that was particularly warm and I ' m sure I was 100 % red faced and looked a second away from dying , but this super in shape guy ran past me when I was scowling and thinking about walking and said something you go girl ! It made my day ! I kept running a bit longer because of it . This was probably 5 years ago and I still think about it often . I ' m not wildly overweight , but I ' m definitely not thin . So I think if you see someone needing some motivation , don ' t be scared to say something . Maybe they need a positive comment to keep going .
