I asked when this started and she said 3 weeks ago (which coincidentally was the last time I bought VR cards there).
Anyone else hear about this new "policy"? Her explanation makes no sense whatsoever to me and I don't believe it for a minute. I think I will go back after her shift is over to see if it's just her unwillingness to sell the cards and not a store policy. This is the very first time this has happened at that CVS since I started buying VR cards there 13 months ago.
I had no issues using a CC to buy VRs today either...
