Scheels right now is doing a $70 gift card if you open a new credit card.  I opened once, got my gift card in about 20 minutes, and ordered $70 worth of baits.

It’s free money - no strings. I did it a couple years ago.

Maybe besides getting a hit on your credit score. I think if you open 100 different credit cards it matters I think?

If you have 10, 20, or 100 credit cards you might already have bad credit. A credit check or 3 isn’t going to hurt if you have good credit. I’m not rich, but my credit score is bullet proof.

Every time you open a new credit card it affects your score by 5 points.

 

Obviously not a big deal if you already have good credit.  Just make sure you pay it off if you intend to use it.  Scheels is looking to rope in people who aren't capable of managing their card balance on a timely basis with a really high interest rate.

 

Quite often they will just deactivate it after a period of time without activity.

Yeah I will typically open one like this and close it a couple months later.

Fyi the Scheels card will have like a 25% interest rate so I definitely would not leave a balance on it.

They sent me the 600 yard spool. I originally ordered it off of the Amazon Warehouse and Returns page.

Oh - Warehouse mistake. Years ago I ordered a 330yd spool of Trilene XL 4# from the Warehouse...they sent me a 3000yd spool. Happens occasionally.

[Gnarwhal]

I appreciate the deal notice. 

 

Doesn't Amazon have a rep for selling counterfeit line?  I know there was an issue with fake powerpro.  I'm not going to chance something important like line to Amazon Warehouse/Returns.

So with this Omina Pro thing, I feel bad using it to buy 1 berkley bait and having them ship it to me. Am I being silly and just go ahead and order it? The crazy part is I did a 14 dollar 3 item terminal order yesterday.

[IndianaOutdoors]

It's why you went pro... it's worth it. Use it!

@Cgolf I try not to place small orders, but sometimes I just need a couple items and end up ordering anyway, especially when they have 20% off sales on certain brands. I don’t have a solution. I’ll let Omnia figure it out.

Same, that is the issue. I tried to get some jig heads during the terminal tackle sale, but they lumped them in with the bass jigs so I just got three packs of hooks. The hyper focused sales put you in a box, so glad I signed up for the pro thing. The only temptation is a Cull Shad, but I already have a mag draft to try, and I am not convinced the N WI bass want swimbaits that big and the will just get toasted by toothy critters. 
 

I also have a hyper focused list of soft swimbaits, swimbait hooks and jigs, and jerkbaits. All part of my plan to beat the monkey.

I could pick it up for you since they are on my route home from work. Just place it under my name instead.
