Sam's Club store card approval

I apped for this card 5 weeks ago and was declined. Got a pre-qualified letter in the mail today, so called them to give it another shot...a few questions later, and a $600 CL to start. Between this and the $600 Wally, I now have a couple of GE cards to grow with.

Congrats! Does the GECRB Sam's card give you a free TU08 FICO credit score? If it doesn't, then why not just get the GECRB Walmart card instead since you can also use it at Sam's Club and it comes with a free TU08 FICO credit score?

He states that he does have the Walmart store card with $600  limit already.

Oh silly me, I see that now. So why would anyone get a Sam's card if you already have a Walmart card?
