I cant understand why sears seems so weird when it comes to giving
credit.  Many of the postings say they had no credit and got a sears,
while others have tons of credit and can not get a card.
I find it hard to believe that those people who got refused cards
did not have a bad credit record.   Sears was my first card, which
I got as a junior in high school, working part time making about
$50/week.  I had no other credit (and no $$ in the bank to speak of).
Was my credit approval a fluke?   (both my parents had sears cards at
the time, so that may have something to do with it).
