It is quite funny that over the past year I have gotten $14000 cc limits and what not but to actually walk in a store and get instant approval is a milestone for me. Usually when I apply for something I get the dreaded 3-7 day notice. 99% of the time the card is approved but I have never had the satisfaction of being instantly approved. So today I went to Old Navy to do some shopping for my up coming trip to CA and the lady at the register said would you like to save 25% so I said sure why not when I usually decline. So we went through the whole app process and I am waiting to hear the ohhh we will notify you by mail but she said congrays you have been approved for the Old Navy Card. So I said ohhhh ty thinking I was just approved for the store card. I get in the car and read it and it was a limit of $1000 and it was actually for the Old Navy Visa card. Now I know this doesn't have the best APR and its only a $1000 limit but still this is a milestone in my book.

Everyone else will always reply with "further processing needed."
Congrats on your instant approval. Must feel great! Even to this day, I still never app in a store for the risk of an embarassing decline or the dreaded "further processing needed."
Lmao Open I only did it because I was the only one in the store so if I was declined no one else would hear so I completely feel your pain. It feels great!!!!

BTW, from reading these forums, I see a lot of people that'd kill for an opening balance of 1000 from a store card.
So, grats!!!
You are quite right. This card will be paid in full and SD.
I know I usually expect around 500 or so. So they just give you a receipt with the limit and its your temp card until yours arrives in the mail. I do believe this is my highest store card so one more thing to be happy about.
Thank u!!!!!
Congrats and enjoy your trip to sunny Cali
I understand the feeling 
Congrats on the Old Navy card, a $1000 limit for their store card is actually pretty high for them. GE is great about automatic credit limit increases, too. I really like my BR Visa (used to be a BR store card). You will get a *ton* of email and mail coupons from them. I haven't paid full price for anything at their stores (Gap, ON, etc.) since opening the card.

Actually, OP was approved for ON VISA card...which is a heck of a lot better than what many of us get saddled with (ON store card...$200 limit here 
)

You are correct creditcrusader. It is the ON VISA card and not just the regular store card. I had assumed that even if I did get approved it would be for the store card but when they gave me my temp pass it is for the VISA card. Some say the $1000 limit is just a temp thing and it may actually be higher than that. $200 what are you supposed to buy with that?
