I was actually ordering something on walmart's website & when it gave me an option to apply for this card and get $20 back, I couldn't resist the temptation. I got approved instantly with $1,800.
I have absolutely no idea if it is a good card & I'm feeling too lazy to go through the entire threads. Just have a few questions at this time:
1) Is this a good initial CL for Walmart Discover card?
2) Does this card grow with time? Do they do CLIs? If yes, are they SP or HP?
3) Besides free monthly TU FICO score, is there any other major advantage of this card?
$20 got you out of the garden????

Its been a couple of weeks since I got my card and my score has jumped a lot since then. I don't want them to use the original report that they had pulled.
No, its a SP manual review on your TU file.
Just wanted to thank youngandcreditwrthy here...
I called them in to request for a CLI. They said that I should call after I receive the card. I called them in again right after I received the card & requested for a CLI.
They asked me how much do I want. I said 10k. They put on me on hold for 5 minutes & guess what... approved for $10k... My highest limit ever!
So after just 13 months of credit history, my total limit is $32,000... Thanks to myfico & many helpful posters on here!

That's awesome. Congrats on the successful recon.
And another benefit that's not been mentioned is that right now if you use your WM Discover at Walmart gas stations (Murphy), you'll get 15 cents off per gallon of gas through some time in June/July - that works out to about 4% cash back at current prices.
Congrats!!!!
I think it started out $2500. Now I'm at $7500.
