Mini App Spree 3/3

 

Hi everyone,

 

Went on a mini app spree this week, I aimed for three GE cards.

 

1. Amazon (Approved for $800CL) - Since I'm going back to skool at the end of the month, I figured I'll use this for books.

2. Walmart Store (Approved for $400CL)  - I don't really shop there but the FREE TU FICO was a no brainer since it has $0 AF.

3. TJX Rewards Store (Approved for $300CL) - not the best CL but I'm a TJMaxx/Marshall's shopaholic! haha, might as well put those $10 certificates to good use! I'll make sure not to go too crazy on this one since it has a low limit, but with GE cards, CLI every four months, right? :smileywink:

 

I'm so happy! I am set for next year without applying for any more credit especially with the NFCU cashRewards of $6K CL that I was approved last month, I can't wait to get an AMEX and possibly a CHASE card down the road! :smileyvery-happy:

 

Thanks everyone for the wonderful advice!
