You could always try. I don't recall the backdoor number but it was posted on here somewhere I think. I called after having my card for 3 months and they doubled my limit. It is through GE and I have another card through GE too, Belks. It started at a $200 limit and I have actually never used it. I called and asked for a CLI and they gave me $800. I thought that was funny, since I have never used the card and they raised it 4 times it's limit. Walmart card was only doubled, from 500 to 1000, but hey whatever. I don't really use the card often I just have it there to reduce util and for reporting.
If you do try with Walmart tell them you want to take advantage of the 0.0% interest offer for a large purchase and give them a dollar amount of something like $1649. It probably won't really matter unless the amount is close to what they offer you.
