Sorry, guys, I'm guessing that this was a reference to one of the different credit forums that we clump under the phrase of "The Dark Side," as they don't feel particularly constrained by ethics and such. As part of our Terms and Conditions, we don't publish links or referrals to them.

I apologize, didn't realize that was considered an off limits place for here.

Go to Target and buy something and pay with M/C.  They'll probably give you a store card right then and there....lol

Go to the service desk and pay (usually there isn't a line there and they are more prone to take the time to ask.)  Target has an awesome software setup on their financial end.  That's why they switched to auto CLI's I think.  The puters do all the work...lol.
