Best Buy Store Card EFFIN!!! approved

I recently applied for the Barclays Apple Card because i wanted the new Imac. So i applied and got denied due to to many app inquiries. So i went to best buy today.... on my birthday and said What the hell.... let me try it out.... 4/17/13 cuz i think its midnight already in some places.

 

I heard so many stories of Type A, B accounts of some sort some will get approved for 300 some for 500 and will never get CLI. So i was hesitant, but i felt lucky... since ive been wanting that computer i had the guts to apply today on my Bday. After having the girl working at the computer startion convince me to appl so i did. I prayed and prayed and said let this be my bday gift.... after a minute  INstantly Approved for 2k holy moly.... and i thought i was gonna get denied... because of the Barcley Card. I also thought that if i got approved, It would be for 250-500 not 2k... im stoked and super happy. I have recently been succesful because of all the wonderful ideas and stories i get off here.

 

Thanks guys!! hopefully i can stay in the garden... my next goal is auto loan.

 

Btw my credit scores are all across the board TU 675 , Ex 675 and EQ 672

Congrats!!! and nice Bday gift!! For some time i was hot for the BB store card. Tried twice in the past and got denied both times (last time i applied was Oct 2012 and got denied for inquiries). The desire for the card has decreased lately but maybe one day i will be able to get approved.

Congrats and HAPPY BIRTHDAY

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?

Great news and happy birthday!   

 

Capital One has been more generous on the BB MC lately.  I have received two CLI's.  Started with $300, then to $600 and now at $900.  I guess it's because they are selling the accounts to Citibank this summer?  

 

Anyway, congratulations!
