    I got my transunion score (643) and one of the reasons that was listed for the score was that I have no retail accounts, among other reasons like length of time of accounts, etc. I have a Shell gas card, but I don't have any others - and the Shell doesn't report. Which one should I get?

    Where do you shop? Spiegel was easy to get. Many folks here have Target, Kmart by Cap One is easy.

    I live in Florida and was thinking of getting a Burdines or a Macy's, but do you know if they report?

    Kmart is by cap1?
    Of course, DH wants us to boycott Kmart because they no longer sell amunition. Of course, I like their martha stewart stuff. Martha Stewart makes me feel completely inept at housekeeping - oh wait, maybe I just am.

    Target for sure. Instant approval with 608 EQ and brand new $500 secured Sterling mastercard.

    Still hoping KMart comes through, didn't instantly approve me.
