Yeah kinda but better. It's like a Tractor Supply and Bass Pro mixed into one. They have almost everything that a guy would like. Sporting goods, hunting, fishing, tools, Cathartt clothing etc.

Hahaha, I was thinking of you when I wrote that because your in that town

 

Oh shit that is cool. I have some in NH even!

 

Sounds like I should make a trip over there, not too far away & maybe I could get back onto the trails again too.

 

That place looks great, there is one in Claremont NH almost 1000 feet away from where I was t-boned on my motorcycle last September. I've been meaning to stop in there.

 

I was going to like this but,,,

 

Yeah those have been there for a little bit but the CT store is new

 

I just looked at the circular and looks I better be prepared to spend a lot of money when I go in there! Looks awesome.

 

That looks cool!
Never heard of them.
Wish it was closer.

 

Putnam is not far from me at all. I may have to check it out.

 

I have one credit card with a 2500 limit. Very low interest rate though, through a credit union and mainly used for concerts.

 

Mine are definitely not low. 20-ish% I think, but it doesn't matter to me because I never accrue it.

 

It's in the same parking lot we met for Christmas exchange. They took over the X Kmart/Sears building.
Their Grand opening week was nuts. They mailed everyone around a $10 off coupon, and was selling Brats or Hot dogs w/chips and soda for $1.
They're real big in the midwest.

 

I was about to say, how did you not see the store when we had the Toys for Tots run? I have been meaning to go see how the store is, since one of my coworkers keeps saying It is awesome.

 

My Capital One card was the first one I got as an 18 year old. $250 limit which went to $1,000 after the first year and $3,000 by the end of college. I decided to reevaluate it this year and applied for a credit increase. It's been 15 years and I'm making multiples more than I was in college working at the grocery store and they raised my limit by $1,000. Thanks, guys.

 

Just reading though all the messages. Don't be too concerned with another inquiry, they only temporary hurt your report (1-3 months). It bounces back thought. Banks will give you way more then you need for limits. Currently have 8 CC only use mainly three. The rest were for points (google churning if interested). As for limits go, they go by your income I say mine is 50K and with all my cards I am very close to 50K of credit. Obviously pay it in full every month though. I'm a points whore, nothing is paid cash. My GF just laughs at me till we go on vacation and it cost me close to nothing. Over the past year they (the banks) have been clamping down on my little hobby though.

 

How long have you had it? I ask because I’ve had a discover it (my first credit card) for about 3 years now. They are typically pretty good about upping the limit as long as you’re consistently using it and paying it off. You can also request a limit increase through the app which I haven’t been turned down for before. I’m up to $7500 limit on my discover but I never use it. I use my AMEX for mostly everything but that limit is right around $15k

 

Uhhh... I've had it for almost 3 years now. My limit is at $2,050 since I went and checked. I've upped it through the app before, but they only allow $250 increases at a time for some reason for me. They say the only thing "hurting" my credit is the length of the accounts being open. By hurting I mean it's not doing much other than my credit not being as "strong" in purchasing power, although its a 792 according to the app

 

Ya it takes a while for that to go away. It says that on my report too and some my accounts are over 10 years old. I think when I first got the card they only gave me $1800

 

Mine started at $1,000 and started going up quick, but now the limit goes up slowly
