there is really no NEED to app but since we can we do. like i stated ive been app free for 16+ years before my first app and approval. whats 2?

I stepped out yesterday to pick up a PayPal Extras Mastercard. We run a side line business / ebay and I can pay for my shipping / get rewards by using this card.

 

CL aproved, $5k.

 

Did I "really" need this card? No, but I justified the app realizing that this year I have spend about $2k so far with PayPal shipping and have missed out on any rewards so I felt it was worth while to step out and pick up the card.

 

Now when I ship our products, I will get points that I can convert to cash back...


Congrats! that card does its job!

Re: Garden Club Meeting - October 2012

Came out of the garden on Friday. Applied for the AA Citi Card (two browser trick) and got the Aadvantage Visa & AmEx with only one hard pull, $8,500 limit on each with 15.24% APR. Will get 100,000 AA miles and $100 statement credit on each card when used onboard AA (which works since I am flying them in December). Also glad I pulled the trigger on the higher miles as the links I used to apply are no longer active. Back into the garden I go.

Garden check in!  I'm still here at 47 days app free.

I've been busy with school so that keeps my mind off applying!

40 days app free. My focus on the holiday season and saving up to buy a house is making me not only app free, but itch free as well.

Can't wait for my CR to update an see what this stretch does to my score. Hoping for a point or two.

40 days and 40 nights

we have the same last app date Smiley Very Happy  

what caused the jump in your score from aug to sep? 

 

Hopefully by end of December im hoping my score hits 700+ again!

Especially since my report is so diversified with the installment loan they said I needed.
