Should You Open a Store Credit Card During the Holidays?

When I was checking out, I was asked by the cashier if I wanted to open a store credit card. While store credit cards have their pitfalls, opening one that day would've saved me a nice chunk of money on a very large purchase. If you're doing a lot of holiday shopping in person this year, you, too, may be offered the opportunity to open a store credit card.
