Been a bit down on my luck, but got a few CLIs recently :)

The title says it all.  I've been a bit down on my luck, but over the past few days, there have been some good signs, CLIs.

 

I got an email saying that my PayPal Smart Connect was eligible for a $200 increase, a few minutes ago I requested a CLI on my AE Store Card (that I've had since 9/2012) and got a $150 increase, and after seeing a few CapOne CLI threads, I decided to request one and I was approved for a $500 CLI.  Despite the very small increases, I'm definitely happy.

Luck will change in your favor as well just keep your head upSmiley Wink

Before you app think...
Have you done your research of the CC?
Does it fit your spending?
Do you have a plan for the bonus w/o going into debt?
Can you afford the AF?
Do you know the cards benefits? Is it worth the HP?

Re: Been a bit down on my luck.. EDIT: Just got approved for the Discover IT! :D

Wow, I'm actually pretty speechless right now..

 

I got denied for the Discover iT Student Card twice last year, back when my utilization was like 30% less.  I figured I'd apply for it again since I haven't apped for anything in about 8 months, and it said I was approved Smiley Happy.  The only thing is I don't see a limit, how can I find this out?
