Stepped out of the Garden....

webhopper · ‎12-31-2012

Well, I couldn't wait until the 1st, I apped for Lowes Rewards by Amex, its a business card... Approved, 22k limit

I'm astonished.

Going to app for PRG tomorrow.... hopefully it counts as one pull but if it doesn't I'm fine with that...

This goes to show you that gardening pays off! I had 14 or 15 inquiries last year at this time plus some baddies... Those have fallen off / been removed this year. I was down to 3 inquiries, 2 of which were from Feb 2012 when I pulled the trigger.

Just posting to let you guys know that persistance does pay off! Last year I was just so excited to be approved for Zync... but now, after 10 months of heavy use on Zync, they've given me way more than I could have hoped for.

Here's to gardening!

Tinu, I will be back in the garden after my PRG app tomorrow!

Thanks! I really wanted this card... I had a GE backed personal Lowes that was closed by GE during the Credit Crunch... with no warning! So its nice to have a lowes card again and I REFUSED to apply for another personal lowes card backed by GE

Good luck to all my fellow Amex January 1st appers!
