Got preapproved for a PenFed Personal Line of Credit for 25,000.00 so bit the bullet, applied and got it. I figured it was good to have in case of emergencies but I don't plan to use it otherwise. Also, for the first time, was able to get a Discover soft pull CLI on-line (via the "luv" button) instead of online-chat or calling - credit limit increased from 13,500 to 15,000. When I first opened the account in November 2011 it was 1700. FICO scores have been in the 740's or 750's.

Congrats on the approvals. Was the PenFed preapproval a mailer or did it show up online?

It showed up online, along with a bunch of others. I didn't need any more credit cards though and I don't need to buy a car, so I went for the PLOC.
