are we all a bunch of screw ups this week?

I so badly want to apply for the freedom and Bce, but I realize that if I apply for it now, I probably won't be approved. So for now I'm staying good and keeping the itch away or even thinking about applying for anything. But congrats to those of you that have applied and have been approved!

Who are you banking that you get 7.5%, James?

I got my AF removed for my Capital One Platinum and got a 1.99% APR promotion for six months on Discover It without hard pulls, so I've had a pretty good week.  I haven't left the garden since 07/2011.

www.landmarkcu.com  vip checking account gives 7.5% for the first $500 in the account with Direct deposit and paperless. its only .1% after that... so its basicly its a couple dollars in interest per month, best I have done is $3.xx in interest a month but I put all my bills on my Zync card and let the money sit in my account and they pay me, and AMEX gives me rewards it was a lot prettier before AMEX killed double points for Cell phone bill and cable bill. 

P.S. don't bother applying for there credit cards unless you have no baddies, and an 800 fico... Got turned down for a credit card with a 720 Fico and a 10+ year relationship with the bank, no bounced checks in years checking and savings accounts, and numerous CD's over the years.
