It does! I'm not much of a huge retail shopper though. I do like TJMax. Mostly for travel expenses. My fiancé always books our flights, so I'm not worried about flight miles. My spending revolves around home expenses, groceries, med bills, and extras while traveling.

NASA is very BK friendly. I also got a personal line of credit with them too. Take a look at my siggy. All of that credit was post BK discharge.  I'm still trying to find more BK friendly creditors. My biggest goal is to get an AMEX card. Then a US Bank credit card. I can't get a card with them to save my life and I've been banking with them for 10 years!
