No credit card required
Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
Speaking particularly of Macy's: Not too hard to get, doesn't require too much use to retain and the CL will grow with you if you tend it. I think HD is much the same. Many store or gas cards are going to open at $300 and sit there like a rock forever. I don't need that. It does nothing for me.
BTW - You can order just about anything Macy's has, including the sale items, through the internet. I have never done it because I am walking distance from a Macy's store, but I do use the website for reference.

When it comes to retail cards, it can be tough to get high-ish CL's. So generally, the better CL's come with big box stores like Best Buy and Lowe's and Home Depot. The more expensive the toys, the more likely to get a generous CL.
We don't have a Macy's in our town , so I went with HD. Not much difference in access --Lowe's is 4 minutes away, and HD is 5. In the case of my local stores, the customer service in HD is far superior to that in Lowe's, probably because Lowe's is easier access, and they don't have to work as hard. Our HD people pounce on you the moment you cross the threshold.
But I mainly picked HD because after researching here on the forums, it appeared that their initial CL's were more generous than with Lowe's (HD gave me $4K), and I had heard stories from contractors working on our house about their difficulties with their Lowe's cards --getting payments credited in a timely manner, CS issues, and so forth. And my Sears MC is issued by Citi, and as crazy as the card makes me, I have had great CC CS from Citi.
But it seems like GEMB might be getting better with some of their cards, so the race might be getting more even.
And back when Tony Stewart drove for HD, I preferred him to Jimmie Johnson. Now that Tony has left to form his own team, Joey Logano is HD, and he's nice, but young, so maybe Jimmie is now the man.
How's that for a ridiculous reason to pick one card over another?
Would you prefer I laugh myself silly in the open forum or in private?
ROTFLMAO!!!

I wouldn't know anything about that theory....It's not like I bought Castrol oil when I liked John Force, but then I started rooting for the Pedregon boys & bought my Quaker State synth. oil at the Advance Auto Parts. I wouldn't know anything about that!

Oooo! That's hard-core! My respects.
I'm not into the races like I used to be, but it's still a blast to go & see up close. Nothing else like it.
***aaahhhh.....I love the smell of nitro in the morning! hehe
I used to like Lou Albano, but I never rode in one of his taxis.
(The family owned a taxi company in Mt. Vernon, NY.)
Afew years ago a guy my brother knows (both competetive track cyclists) was here with his wife from Italy to race, so we took them to the Drag Races. They knew "some" english...but I was trying to somewhat explain the races. The best I could come up with was....."Formula 1 = Fine Champagne,,,,Drag Races = Cold Beer" She laughed... especially when she saw the crowd. Somewhat redneck-ish.
He was the european champ (clout)...they weren't laughing when we got them on the starting line during the top fuel runs. They didn't want to leave!
