maxed out cards
Spending limit reached
Credit cards that have reached their spending limits, leaving no available credit.
The phrase suggests financial strain or overextension: I can't cover the repairs—all my cards are maxed out.
Someone with maxed out cards has borrowed up to the limit on each account and cannot charge more until paying down the balances.
