This is a guide to help id your cacti.

These are common ones that people in your local cactus and succulent society may be able to identify.

One looks like a mammillaria with the areoles and the other with the deep ridges looks like an echinocactus. It is easier to id the species when it flowers. I am no expert since cacti are not the best plants for my location, so I only grow a limited number of succulents, but I have friends in the cactus and succulent society who would be much better at identifying these.

Lowe's & Home Depot sell those out WEST they are marked cactus. That is all they usually say, Cactus. If needles are fish hook shaped its a barrel cactus. Go to Phoenix Arizona Cactus Garden look at the pictures maybe you find it.
