Re: Garden Club Meeting - January 2013

I'm left the garden today and app'ed for 5 cards:

 

wal-mart 1800

macy's 500

lowe's 2000

target 500

sear's 2000

 

took all of 30 minutes...

 

I'm back in the garden and my aim is a year. could be more since the only card i want now is a citi bank.

Re: Garden Club Meeting - January 2013

My last app was for an auto loan. It proved successful so no more apps for me this year. My goal is to garden my cards and grow the CLs with soft pulls. Last app was 12/17/12.

As of 2017, rebuilding...

congrats on the approvals! we all know GE cards are generous with CLI. I love my Macys card...it can grow with you (especially if you like to shop there which i do). In one year went from 300 limit to 2500!

Re: Garden Club Meeting - January 2013

Goals for the new year are to continue the progress I’ve made in 2012: pay off remaining revolving debt, asking for SP CLI when appropriate, cull the herd by closing several CCs, let inquiries/new accounts age, and no apps for anything except a possible mortgage late this year.
