It said something to the effect of "this type of gift card must be paid with CASH."

This may be old news to some but I wanted to share my experience.
Yes, they have been cash only at OD for about a week and a half now. This also includes any variable reload cards.
Office Depot will soon be accepting cash only for gift card purchases
