Talking MSing in the USA
Just out of curiosity, how many states have you MSed in? This can be purchasing, liquidating, depositing, or returning MS activity.

FTR, over here the number is 11: AZ, CA, FL, LA, MD, MO, NV, NY, TN, TX and VA.

Anyone MSed in all 50 states yet?

Five or six states, mostly in New York or states nearby where there are Wal-Marts. I don't MS much.

But once I took a 3-week job in Tampa, partly because I liked the job, and partly because even if the salary wasn't quite what I usually make in New York, a car and nearby Wal-Marts plus a new Citi Executive 100K card made the prospect too compelling and easy to pass up.

Mostly in the northeast regions, VT, MA, RI, CT, NY, NJ, and PA. Then there was NV when I was on vacation. Plus of course, the WWW.

Interesting that you mention the www. I guess we should count any state you are in while initiating online MS activity, as in a GC purchase.

I've bought GC in HI, CA, FL, VA, MD, TX, MS, OK, NM, AZ, and CO.

Surprisingly enough, I can only recall actually liquidating in FL and VA.
