No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
I don't have a pet so I won't apply for the Petco. LOL!
I never really received anything ever despite high FICOs granted I am one of those that have tons of cards and less than 500 in reported credit other than auto/home loans. I think really all I have received in the last year is the black "luxury card" invite a few times and SW Chase business card. I know people that get tons of mailers, but I am not one of them. I think I am doing pretty well with no new cards coming on 5 months as well lol. Some people get a lot and some don't for whatever reasons.

Unfortunately, you are correct!
While I see lots of ads in media about new credit cards, I find myself wondering if those of us who are in the higher score ranges are no longer targeted for offers simply because most high-score folks (read non-myFICOers) are most likely pretty happy with the cards they have and toss most of the glossy mailers in the trash. That said, my wife (800+ across the board) just got two last week, one from our bank (TDBank) and one from Discover. Even if we weren't about to apply for a mortgage, both of those would have hit the circular file without even being opened. Said another way, if either of us wants a card, we'll apply for it; to hell with the preapproval offers.

I categorically refuse to do AZEO!

I did receive an offer for up to $30k loan from Citi today. Not in need of a loan.
Guessing you must be correct. My FICO scores are all over 800, never that high before. Maybe I should miss a payment or two. LOL!😁

Good one!
Loan offers I get on a semi-regular basis, but credit card offerings only come from the financial institutions I currently have cards with.

Got an emailed ITA today for the GM Rewards card, reminding me that I can apply without impacting my credit score without a HP unless I accept an approval.
I have a balance transfer offer from Capital One..no transfer fees and 23.99 intrest. I'm all over it. Not!
