How did you end up with 4 cards?


Was this a close it and reopen later scenario?

 

I have been stuck at $200 since I opened it... Although I do like the 5% off

Re: Target Store Credit Card

Do you guys think Target or Walmart is a better card? I hear that the walmart card gives you your fico score free every month? Is this true? If so I would say the walmart card is a much better deal.. Please chime in!

Goal: 700 and an Amex Card!

Re: Target Store Credit Card

Don't bother unless you do alot of major shopping @ Target. Most of the stuff there is overpriced so the 5% doesn't help that much.

 

i got one like 4 years ago @ $300CL and it hasn't moved a inch. If you look at whogavemecredit 9 out of 10 ppl there are getting very low limits $200-$500

Re: Target Store Credit Card

I have a Target card & a Walmart card.  We do almost all of our shopping at Target.  We never really shop at Walmart; we just use the card to pay for gas.

Re: Target Store Credit Card

Get the Wal-Mart card, and open a Target debit card. You get the same 5% off but no HP.

Current Cards: Banana Republic Visa ($5,300), Chase Freedom ($2,000), Discover It ($11,500), Amex Costco True Earnings ($5,000), Chase Slate ($2,500)

It kind of became a joke... After getting the 2nd one I didn't really think you could have multiple cards and then one day I was spending about $197 on some furniture thing and I was like sure I'll open a new account and save the 10% or whatever they use to offer before switching to the 5% all time and it came back instant for $200... Like month or two later was spending about $200 again and was like sure and boom approved again....

I have never closed any of them at any time and they have always been at $0 when I filed for BK so they were never included and they never closed them.

I just use the one now that has the $1500 limit....
