Ok, I'm done, but I feel like a big girl!

SO, my first ever CC will be the Walmart store card with a limit of $400.00, and I was just approved for a Capital One with a limit of $500.00, not a secured card! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I feel like a big girl!! 

I will be treating these cards with tender loving care!! Smiley Happy

Well done!!  Those are great cards to build with. As others have said, treat 'em right (I'm sure you will) and they'll treat you right.

Does the crap one card have an annual fee?

After a year you will be able to get much better cards. So, keep this card for a year, and if they aren't willing to give you better terms then close it.
