Chase Sapphire and Citi Thank you Approvals!!

Just recently stepped out of the garden to be approved for two GREAT cards!   The first was $6000 for the Citibank Thankyou Card and the other is the Chase Sapphire Preferred with $5000.   I think I finally have made it to the big leagues!   Now the question is, my Crapital One card is the oldest and only at $1000, do I hold onto it or cancel?

As long as it has no AF, sock drawer it. There's no point in closing it if it's not costing you anything.

So you got the sapphire preferred without a prior card with a $5000 limit?

That is correct, I do have a $2200 limit on my Freedom card and the NPSL on my Amex Preferred.
