ctfudge&bankofC-ville Posted December 3, 2007 Report Share Posted December 3, 2007 Everyone keep this thread going by writing down what goodies you got in the mail, or e-mail if you got something there, or even just telling us what you got on a "congratulations" screen, if you want.Hub got his Best Buy, $500 limit, Mastercard in the mail. A turndown from J.B. Robinson due to inability to verify identity, even after getting the other two cards (all because of freeze, he will call to straighten this out.) A turndown from Nordstrom, even though he had a perfect history with them when he had a card that they closed down for reasons not having to do with them. I got: My Jared's card , a letter telling me my J.B. Robinson card is on the way and best of all.... A TEXACO CARD! I don't know why, but I've wanted a gas card forever. Got turned down for Citgo (Citi just doesn't like me) and I thought I'd take a chance. $400 limit, and best of all, one card for me and one for the hub with his name on it! (he thinks I"m a pretty cool wife.) It even has a race car on it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Did I remember to say that I love the mailman today?!?!?!?!

lovebug5 Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Received my beautiful, shiny, red Target card in the mail two days ago. Used my 10% off coupon yesterday and am going to PIF tomorrow...The wonderful, nice cashier gave my coupon back to me and told me to use it again. Nice.

Moneedshelp Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I received an email today telling me my Best Buy MC is on the way and I can use my reward zone (is that what it's called) number to earn points on my purchases at BB online or something else. My card is on the way, yeah!!Nothing in mail. Oh yeah, I did win the grand prize 777 for a scratch off from a car dealership. According to the small print, grand prize is a 3night/4day at one of 26 destinations. I pay taxes, extra fees, transportation, and everything else. LOL.

LVMortgageMom Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I got a letter from Hooters saying they couldn't verify my identity and to send some additional info.....at least there is still a glimmer of hope. DH got the same letter from Fingerhut. I sure hope he gets it because I saw some Baby Phat boots that he (unknowingly) is going to buy me for XMAS. At least this way he can get a tradeline out of it.

pointman Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 My DW has been observing me work at this for the past 4 months and she followed suit with the Trifecta. Yesterday she recv'd her 3 cards and another card from J. Jill, her favorite place to shop these days!I talked my DD into pulling her free reports from annualcreditreport and we found that she had one late payment from a dept. store account that was set up for bank draft from day 1. Thanks to CIC we now know how to remedy that situation! And I had her drop the auto bank draft option and set up an online pay account with email notification of due dates and payments recv'd.

CleverCynic Posted December 6, 2007 Report Share Posted December 6, 2007 Well yesterday I got a mailer from CAP One (a recent new card) telling me I'm guaranteed a CLI from 1k to 1500 in 5 months if I use my card w/i 90 days and make 3 timely payments. Thought that was pretty cool. I'm using it like crazy already because there's no interest right now... not sure if a whole year or 6 months or what, but I'm taking advantage of it!

When I lived out the sticks I always tried to pre-buy in the summer. even then it was a buck and a half a gallon..The post card deal.. That is third party disclosure! personally, I'd rather the mail carrier thought I could not pay my bills than keep the wife happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetscarbie Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 I usually lock in my price during the summer also but we just bought this house in Oct and I didn't get a chance to. The tank was already here so we just used the company the sellers were using. But yes, propane is up and it's going up higher. 2.74 a gallon. plus other fees.I'm a female so the postcard was funny to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merkurfan Posted December 8, 2007 Report Share Posted December 8, 2007 OUCH! 3 bucks a gallon? we sell it at our gas station here for 2.12 (I didn't even know they had propane here).... wish I could ship you some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctfudge&bankofC-ville Posted December 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2007 Just a bunch of coal in our stockings this weekend. Got twin letters yesterday telling us that Friedman's does not consider us worth $1 because of BK (in 2002 and 2004, his and hers.)Oh well - can't win 'em all.Went to the mall yesterday, also, and counted no less than seven jewelry stores, some directly across the hall from one another, before losing count. Just how much jewelry do people need, anyway? I'm not into it, so I just don't get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msekinah Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 I just received a check in the mail to fund my credit repair efforts. I will open one or two tradelines with secured account and I will pay off some pending bills before they reach my account. This board is a gift from God.
