After closing on my new house this afternoon, I had 3 credit priorities:

 

Lowe's: $2400 instant, then CLIed at the register for $5K with a $4200 purchase

NFCU CashRewards: $15K, SIGNATURE! :smileylol:

Amazon Chase: instant $6,500

 

I'm flabbergasted.  One year ago I was at 568 and couldn't even get a store card for anything.  Prime land, baby! Increased my credit limit by 125%. Whoa.

 

Is it time to kiss Cap1 Platinums goodbye, you think???

Starting Score: 10/1/2011 EQ 568 TU 593
Current Score: EQ 664 TU 700 EX 701 (FAKO)
