    How many times, and for what amounts, do you need to use a credit card to keep the tradeline open, if it is not your "everyday" card?

    I bet it varies by creditor. I didn't use a Sears card for 3+ years, yet it remained open. However, I didn't use a Zales card for 1 year and when I went to use it again, it was closed.
