Holy smokes... I told myself no applying for at least 6 months after my mini app spree last month... but the BCE offer of 1 year Amazon Prime + $50 statement credit after 1k spend was just soo tempting and I had INQ's to burn on EX and 2 of my new accounts haven't reported yet so I decided to apply and... approved for $3,000!!! 
This nearly doubles my available credit! I had $3,750 prior to this and now I have $6,750!
A little about my credit:
Bank of America Cash Rewards Secured card opened 03/14 $500
Capital One QuickSilver One opened 07/14 $500
Barclaycard Rewards opened 10/14 $500
Chase Freedom opened 10/14 $1,200
Discover it opened 10/14 $1,000
INQs: 1 EQ 4 EX 4 TU (before approval, not sure who they pulled)
UTIL: 1%
Just shocked right now... I was a little apprehensive about applying after nothing came up on the pre-qual site but everything worked out. Thanks to all you wonderful people here on the FICO forums who provide such great info! Was clueless about credit before I started coming here 
I just have one more card I want to complete my dream set, the coveted Sallie Mae card, but that will be saved for next year haha. Barclays will hate me after they see all these new accounts I've been opening and I doubt they'll give me another card anytime soon Now it's time to appreciate the cards I have and plant my feet firmley in the garden. I mean it this time!
congrats
Welcome to Amex ... congrats!
