My App Spree haul

I had a productive night. First, I spent 9 hours at the Lexus dealership shopping for and buying my 2nd vehicle (I bought a car for my 17 yr old backin July). I had no trouble with that so, I was feeling pretty confident remembered that I could pull the trigger for a Navy CLI. Did that. Wanted to app Chase next but still couldn't get a preapproval so, I moved on and app'd a few more cards. Then, as I was typing this, I got the brilliant idea of app'g Chase anyway...even though I'm now over 5/24 limit, thinking the other cards are not showing yet (forget the fact that I am an AU on 1 account which may have had me at 5/24 anyway, if that counted.) So, being greedy got me declined. Ah well. I still made out pretty good for my one day app spree  Here's my haul:

 

Leased a new 2017 Lexus ES 350

Navy Federal Signature Cash Rewards CLI from $7,000 to $14,000 

Navy Federal AMEX  $15,000 @15.99

AMEX Blue Cash Preferred $1K (not a lot but I'm in there! My first true AMEX network credit card.)

Ameriprise Platinum AMEX

AMEX PRG (I did this one just because the preapproval says 50K pts after spending only $1K in 3 months, while the website requires $2K in spend)

 

So yeah. I'm done for now, putting on my overalls and heading to the garden. It will be interesting to see how things look when the dust settles. Ah well. I got all that I need...for now. 

 

 

Starting Score (May 2017): 584 TU
Current Scores: 752 TU, 717 EQ, 750 EX

Goal Score: 820+

Not bad at all!

Congrats on the new cards and the increases as well. It's nice to see that NFCU is still giving out some good CLI's to everyone! I am coming up on being able to get one from the Amex they offer.

Re: My App Spree haul

Thanks for the luv, guys. I'm pretty happy with the results.

 

Um, but I tripped on my way to the garden and applied for a 2nd Discover card (Discover It cash) and was approved for $1K. Ok. NOW I'm done. (heads to the garden, watching my step this time).

Just wonder what kind of income you get?  Share some data?  

Nice spree!
