<prompt> Human: Hey guys, Im a 20 year old college student going into my sophomore year and I recently decided that I wanted to open my first credit card to start building my credit. I applied and was instantly approved for the Discover IT Student Cash Back card. I should be getting it in 5-7 days. I have a small 500 credit line and I am only going to use this minimally for grocery purchases, and probably will put one of my recurring charges like Spotify on it. Ill use my debit card for the rest of my purchases. Some advice Ive seen is to pay off my balance before the statement comes in, is this good advice? What I would do is whenever I use it at the grocery store or when my spotify bill comes in, I will pay it off immediately the day after. I would really appreciate any tips you guys could give me, thanks a lot!!Edit: Wow, I was not expecting this many replies. Thanks a lot everyone, really cleared up my questions and I will definitely take the advice besides some...haha. Excited to get my first card!  <response>: Get statement, pay balance. Rinse, repeat. That simple.
