I've heard that Macy's is an easy place to get a credit card. Even if you don't shop there, perhaps it would be worth getting a card there to get credit?
(concordant with what Starfall2 wrote), I asked my scorpio bff from home: "i have a citi card. i got it when i went to college... i think kohls mite give you one??"
and my question is, can you get one from work since they are also a department store?
I got a card from Barnes & Noble despite not having credit outside of paying for a lease. Granted, only approved for $500 max, but I was surprised they gave me one at all.
I also recommend you try Borders for their Visa card, so each of us can have a finger in a different pie ;)
I have an Old Navy card, too - they approve you instantly at the register and when they do, you get like 15% off or something. I only use it for sales where I get an extra discount, immediately pay it off, and ignore it again.
If you have the cell phone, make sure it's in your name. Try and get a bill of some sort that's monthly. It helps. I have the house cable bill in my name, as well as my student loans. When I signed up for a phone, they checked my credit and approved me without making me pay any special sign up fees.
