For those of you with Synchrony/Lowe's CCs..

This question goes to those with this card who are not buying stuff all the time for their home.

 

What are you using this card for to keep it active?

 

Made a few decent sized purchases on it when I first got it, but now I haven't used it in 238 days.

 

Trying to find some small items I can buy here and there every few months to keep it active.

 

Any suggestions? Smiley Happy

Paper towel, grass seed...

 

There's plenty of things at Lowe's that you'd normally purchase somewhere else, but COULD purchase to keep your card alive.

 

As mentioned, it's time to use it.

A single screw?  Smiley Tongue

but yeah, it's probably worth giving it a swipe to avoid inactivity closure.

In humid climates, a 4-pack of DampRid hanging moisture absorbers to hang in closets, bathroom and laundry room cupboards, campers, and trailers.  Each one needs to be replaced every 21 to 60 days, depending upon how humid it is.  Lowes often had the best price when I was buying these last year and the year before:  $8.98 versus $9.99 to $12.99 elsewhere.
