In November my hubby got Overstock, Victoria's Secret and Express (~580). Overstock for him is very good about CLI's. Started with 250, immediately got an increase of 200, and have gotten 200 every 31 days since.

Adding more cards is not going to bet you to 800. Time, low UTI and credit mix will do that.

Re: Credit Card Cart Trick

FICO weighs bank cards different from store cards.

For that reason, as well as being able to use the card for more than that one store, I would focus on major bank cards.

 

Additionally, any new card will reduce your average age of accounts, which will continue even if close the card.

The relatively low credit limit associated with most store cards may not be worth the AAoA hit, even if secured without a hard inquiry.
