I shop at Walmart all the time, I can add some $$ to my overall credit limit, my credit is already going to take a dive (of sorts) when these other 2 new accounts hit (Citi and AMEX), and I get a free FICO every month.
Sadly, I was only approved for $400 CL. This seems like somewhat of a slap in the face given I just got a Citi card for $4,000, and I'm assuming they pulled TU which my score is 713-ish...seems like a low CL. Does anyone know if GEMB is good with giving CLI's? Now I don't know if it was worth the hit or it
All this after I swore to myself I would not apply for anything else until at least 2012.
Wait 4 months and make sure you use it nicely and PIF and you'll get a good CLI!!!

GE is really good at nice CLI after the 4th statement custs. They have given me some very nice bumps on two cards.

I'm not 100% sure why this was resurrected but FSU12 already got his first auto CLI:
