I think it signals the consumer is getting tight, not spending. Hence a slowdown will be felt. I can't imagine that everyone is paying cash... I was at my local convient store this am to fillup and the guy in front of me bought 4 paks of butts on his CC, nothing else... My guess is that will hold him over to pay day. The wierd thing was he bought 3 different kinds maybe his buddies were broke also...
