One way to avoid credit card debts is not to use your credit cards in the first place. Used to be in Debt has lots of tips to keep you out of debt.

There are lots of things you can do that will actually make you think about purchases before you make them, which is a good way to avoid impulse buying--a very real danger when you have a credit card with a high limit. After all, it can be hard to resist the temptation to buy something you couldn't normally afford to buy when you have a credit card with a high limit. Talk about purchasing power! What if something you want is finally on sale, but you don't have the cash to pay for it right now? Should you charge it? That all depends. If you can pay the bill in full by the end of the month, go for it. If not, you may be paying an interest rate that's higher than the percentage off was to begin with! Then you actually end up paying more for the item. It's not such a bargain now, is it?
