<prompt> Human: So the gal at TJ Maxx today asked me if I wanted to save 5 by opening a rewards card. I figured that was a pretty decent return for a 20 order, so I said why not. Hell, I was feeling pretty good after saving 20 for subscribing to an email list at the store prior, so I figured I might as well. Needless to say, my tone changed when she asked if I wanted to pay with my tj maxx card or a different one. Turns out their rewards card is a credit card and not a loyalty points card. Looking back, there were a couple redflags that I should have noticed but didnt. It was getting too late in the day for me to be on top of it.Anyway, I guess what Im asking is, how much did i hurt my credit because of this? Should I leave this baby open or close it up?Tl;dr accidentally opened a credit card under the guise of a rewards card and trying to figure out what to do with it.  <response>: Anytime youre giving your social out for anything like this its probably a credit card, avoid this at all costs. Dont close the card itll hurt your credit but read ALL of your terms and figure out your rates as well if theres any annual fees associated with the card.
