Congrats! Don't feel too bad, I opened mine in 2002 and finally got my first CLI June 2016 ($500) putting it back pretty much where it was when I opened it since they gave me a CLD one of the times it changed lenders!  Had another $1000 in December and I am hoping for more either in a few days when my statement closes or at least by June.  I've been letting balances of $150-600 post to the statement every month and pay in full, along with updating my income to the exact same number every month and it seems to finally be moving.

I never understood the reason for a target credit card when they offer the 5% off with their debit card too. With such low CL's too, you couldn't even purchase a big ticket item. Crappy. I don't really shop at target often but I do have the target debit card just in case.

Nice to see they gave you some love though! Congrats!!

The debit card immediately pulls the funds from a checking account, though.  I prefer to be able to decide when those funds come out, and it's good to have the float for nearly a month after the statment closes.  For instance, my statement closes today.  If I were to buy something tomorrow, payment would not be due until June 1st.  Even though it's my smallest credit line, I find value in having it.  I can't think of any "big ticket items" that Target carries that I wouldn't be able to find for less elsewhere so I'd just use another card.  Electronics and furniture would be the only categories I can think of where they would even have items that could exceed my credit line.  But for household items and sometime groceries, the card is fine for me.  I don't use the card for non-Target purchases and always pay in full so I'm not stuck with their 23.40% for everybody APR.
