App Spree! 5 new accounts in 2 days.

I haven't been on the myfico site in awhile and of course, as soon as I read a few posts, I had to apply for new cards :-)

 

Nothing spectacular but this is what I got between yesterday and today:

 

Barclays - $4,500

Target - $2,000

Amazon - $1,100

Athleta (Gap) - $1,000

Banana Republic - $400

 

Also took my Lowes from $6,000 to $12,000 yesterday and then just hit the button again and moved up to $17,000!

 

Time to sit back and garden for a bit....unless someone has some good tips for me :-)

Nice, congrats! Were all 5 accounts hard pulls? How do you imagine it will effect your score, if at all?

Shouldn't effect my score at all since I always seem to have quite a few inquiries.  The additional CLs should add a nice little buffer to keep my utilization percentage lower which was my main factor (other than the joy of more approvals).

Thanks. I've had the Target debit for quite a few years. I wonder if they've looked at my purchase history on it to justify the $2k SL.
