Credit cards, specifically Visa/MC have a hard loss limit for the consumer of $50. That is a legal limit and cannot be adjusted upward by the issuer. They can however lower it.
Your debit card has no such limit and your liability for loss is at the discretion of the bank that issued the card.
Credit cards also allow charge disputes of which the merchant is required to prove the transaction. I believe this is however limited to 50 miles but I doubt any card issuer would even take that into account. I don't believe that there is any such assurances with debit cards.

I have actually learned a lot more about the benefits of credit cards versus check/debit cards. I will be looking into this more.
Thanks.

Mrs. wife and I pay for pretty much everything by credit card, and pay off the full amount every month, so no interest paid.
That allows us to keep more money in the bank/mortgage so reducing the interest, earns a few $ in points on the card, and saves having to carry cash or find ATMs to get it out.
It also allows us to track spending from the CC statement
Of course, we're disciplined enough to not spend what we don't have - I know my Sister-In-Law just spends on the CC like its free money and ends up paying whopping interest all the time when they can't pay it off, so there's a danger in that.
One caveat also, I never use the CC in places that charge extra for doing so - for those I use the debit card.

If you get a twin seater then you will need to learn the term GIB.

Having bathed in kerosene, I do not think it tastes all that good.
By bathed, I mean covered with kerosene from the vent pipe being blocked while putting 40 gallons (US) per minute into a storage tank.

I'd still prefer it to a gin bath.
