what stores do you shop at regularly that have store cards?

Macys is a very good store that will approve you, but again, do you shop there?

Oracles has a good point, don't get a Macy's card if you don't shop there.

Which is why I mentioned Target as an option, or even Wal Mart (store card not Discover), they have a lot of everday stuff to buy which makes it easy to keep the card active. You can't buy Cheetohs at Macy's. LOL!!!

No problem, let us know how it turned out.

You might also consider a store card that is likely to remain a store card.  That's one thing that's nice about Macy's -- it actually reports as two TLs if you get upgraded to the Visa.

Hey guys, thanks for your help! I called the Macy's back door number and they reactivated a card I had from 8 years ago, and gave me an cl of $800 instead of the $100 I had back then. I talked to two people though and neither one of them could tell me if it was a soft or hard inq. Anyway I have the mix I want, and I am done apping for a while.

Good job, now make sure you use it so it does not go inactive
