What's the most apps you've ever done during an App Spree?

After reading a lot of members' sprees, I was just wondering what's the most apps you've ever done during an app spree? how many days did you guys spread those apps, or where they all in one day? Smiley Wink

Keep in mind, every profile is different and you should consider how many inqs/cc's your individual file can handle at once.

3 on the same day, with a HP on each CRA.  Usually, Amex/Citi on Ex, Chase/US Bank on Eq, and Barclay on TU.  I try not to exceed 3 per quarter, but app'ed for about 10 cards last year, all of which were approved.

Five new accounts in 2013:

Three total in June. Freedom Signature and Amex BCP on the same day and CSP the very next day. The app for Freedom was 2 HPs (EX/TU); Amex pulled TU. CSP used the same pulls from the day before, so no new pulls there.

J Crew & Victoria's Secret in April using the shopping Cart trick so no INQ used but I sort of regret these now that I have prime cards with better rewards structures. Plus I don't use them as much as I thought I would so am considering canceling them. (I hit the luv button on the JCrew this week and received a $400 increase to $1150.)

iPhone. iTypos. iApologize
